translate what  general not import ant  the deputy  minister of quickly translate what general not important the deputy Minister of Defense of  Thailand just mentioned regard ing the  result of the  meeting the  GB C the general border committee uh  Thailand Cambodia extra ordinary session  meeting to this afternoon so  first he said  members of the  press  members of the  Thai public  watch ing at home today  I had the  honor  of co-chair ing the extra ordinary G VC meeting with  his  Excellency DSi  Deputy Prime  Minister  and minister of  National Defence  of Cambodia this  morning I also  had the  honor of  paying courtesy call on  his Excellency Ibrahim  prime minister  of Malaysia  which was  jointly  or joined by  the Deputy Prime  Minister  and minister of  National Defence  of Cambodia the discussion  was held  in accord ia and friend ly atmosphere the  Malaysian  prime minister welcome d the  ceasefire  and a positive  progress made  this  round of  Thailand Cambodia  GBC  discussions viewing  it as  an important step tow ards the implement ation of the ceasefire   the  Malaysian  prime minister clearly  stated that  he had already  consulted  with other s in States and leaders and  they were in agreement that  resolving the  Thai Cambodian  border issue in  a bilateral manner between  Thailand and  Cambodia  this  possession is  fully aligned  with Thailand 's approach Malaysia 's role will be  to help  facilitate  dialogue between the  2 sides so  that they can  resolve  the issue  themselves  with  azen  offering support as needed  in  addition the Malaysian  prime minister  welcomed the cons ensus  reached by Thailand  and Cambodia during  this GB C meeting  on establishing  and inter im Observer team to  be led by the  Malaysian  defense at tache and  composed  solely of Defense attaches from  a s in member states the  United States  and China  will not take part  but  have expressed their support in  accordance with  what Thailand  and Cambodia team appropriate I  would like to take  this  opportunity to  thank the government  and the  ministry of  Defence  of Malay sia  in its capacity  as the  as in chair for  their coordination  and facilit ation in making  this meeting proceed smoothly  the  United States  and China also  attended  this meeting  as Observers as  they did during  the special  meeting  on the  28th of  July  represented at  the level of  Ambassador this  GBC meeting  was con vened to follow  up on  the issues  discussed  by the leaders of Thailand  and Cambodia  in Malaysia  on the  28th of  July especially the  ceasefire   I  pointed out  in the  meeting that  since midnight  on the  28th of July Thailand  has fully  complied with  what was  agreed upon  by the lead ers  of both countries regard ing the ceasefire however  it was found  that the  Cambodian  side had continued  to violate the ceasefire after  midnight on  the 2 8th of July  the  Thai side has  exercised utmost  restraint and  responded  only in self-defense while  the current situation  along the  border has become  more stable we  note that the  Cambodian  side continues  to deploy additional  troops to  the area  and has operated with  unmanned a erial vehicles to  conduct surveillance  over Ty territory  these  are provocative  actions that  could lead to  misunderstandings  more over that has  been the diss emination of  distorted information and  this information which  is unconstructive and  does not help  create an  atmosphere  conducive  to dialogue  or re building Trust how ever from the  meeting the  Cambodian  side at  policy level as  shown that  sincerity to  the ceasefire  agreement the  violations  of the cease fire as mentioned prior maybe arbitrary  acts by  the military  units in the area   my  objective  in particip ating in  today's meeting  was to engage  in a Frank  and  sincere discussion with  the camper inside to  find a way  forward  for sustaining  and ceasefire in the long term  and to rest ore peace and stab ility to the  Thai Cambodian border  our  ultimate goal is  to enable  people on  both sides of  the border to  return to  their normal  lives  in peace  and security  let  me now summarize  the key out comes of  today's meeting mutual agreement  of both sides  both  sides free a ffirm their commitment  to a  strict cease fire which cover s all  types of weapons and  requires both  sides to maintain  that  troops at possessions hel d as of the  date the  ceasefire commence with Noah with  no further  reinforcement but  size agreed to establish  an inter im Observer  team comp osed of Defense  attaches from  us in embass ies in Thailand  and Cambodia led by  the Malaysian  defense  attache in  the respect ive country The Observer  team will  conduct regular  observations in  the area  without crossing the border  and  will coordinate  closely with  the respect ive RB C and G BC mechanisms in  both countries  to ensure  no ceasefire  violations by either party  thirdly bird  size will ref rain from  any provoc ative actions  including  military actions  or the dissemination of this information to  Foster an atmosphere  conducive to  Peaceful dialogue fourthly both sides  will strictly  adhere to  International humanitarian law  then the  immediate term  this in cludes the  prompt and  dignified repat riation of disease personnel as  for prisoners  of War  there will be rep atriated immed iately after the  secession of  active hostilities  in  accordance with  the third Gene va Convention I  reaffirmed that  the tie side has treated these individuals in  full compliance  with International humanitarian law    and  fifthly  both sides will  maintain  open channels  of communication and  make use of  existing  bilateral  mechanisms  to prevent any  incident s from escalating follow -up RBC  meetings will be  convened with in 2  weeks  to coordinate the  implementation of  today's outcomes  another  TVC  meeting will  be held in  1 month's  time to  monitor progress I  also raised  2 additional  important issues how ever the Cambodian  side suggest ed that today's meeting Focus focused mainly on the ceasefire and  that these matters  we  discussed at the  next  GBC meeting  and  these matters include first  mine clearance  Corporation land mines were  key factor  that caused tens ions and led  to the use  of for ce  Thailand stands ready to corporate  with Cambodia  in clearing  landmines in the  areas  of recent clashes and  other affected areas  along the border  to  ensure the safety  of people on both sides  and  secondly  cooperation on  combating  transnational crime especially  in tackling  online  scams which have  seriously impact ed the Thai people and  other countries  across the region  I  would like to  emphasize that the  outcomes we  reached today can  only be  translated into tangible  result with  genuine cooperation  and sincerity from both sides  Thailand  remains committed  to  continuing our engagement  in a  sincere and  constructive manner based  on the princip les of  good neighborliness I  also hope that the  Cambodian  side would do  the same to  this end Thailand  and Cambodia are neighbors that  share a common  border  and cannot  move away  from each other we  are also  members of  the same  as in family  if  both our countries  can resolve this  issue swiftly peace will  return to our  shared  border area and  our people will  be able to  resume their  normal lives in peace once again so  that's a translation  of what  general not  upon mention ed now we  open the floor the  floor at least 10 minutes  for the Q&A as  I mentioned earlier  we only have  limit ed time so  I'd like to  limit the number of questions to 2  to 3 question please             so  the question  was just asked  could you address  your  your organiz ation as well please   oh  from the NH K Japan  right so  the question  was actually  asked to General on  on with regard  to the uh succ essful conclus ion of the  GB C whether there's any  relevance to the uh  conduct of the  JB C which is the  joint bound ary commission uh  which is another  level admin istrative foreign  affairs  was  there any like  uh shedding on  that uh  when  that JB C will be organized  t ap them up AB C nupson   ABC   met a Park how  about and  then they were    KBC  that's 1   for  uh yeah   I  see I  G BC and  RBC  of all the  bilateral  mechanisms conducted by  the military and  the ministry  of defense for  example the G BC is  at the ministry zero  level uh  co-chair by  the minister of zero level uh co-chair by the Minister of Defense of  both countries  whereas  RBC  which stands for  the region Regional  border uh  committee  is chair by  or co-chair  by the  Army area Commanders in  the respective  areas of  both countries  so these  as you can see  are the military our  ministry of Defense level um  meetings me chanisms how ever the J BC is  at the ministry of more  in the fast  level  and they  already held  the meeting the  recent meeting on the the  14th of June  uh  the next  meeting was actually  agreed  upon by  both sides to be conducted Ed in September and  that still stands  and that's  still valid  uh we  didn't really  discuss uh the  issue or the any things  of concern on  the J BC  at this G BC meeting so  that still stands  as as                                      uh  just a quick  translation to  the question  I couldn't happen  from the  reporter agency uh  she asked a  question  not concerning  the ceasefire  agreement  whether there will be  any follow-up  mechanism  in regard to this ceasefire  agreement  and concerning  the RB C mechanism uh they  can help  guaranteeing  the safety  of the  people  along the border area okay  uh    n  for hi  Nick love back up   TBC cloud   for   a couple   we all die like   but you want uh talking to  but   what    so  in answering  to  those 2 questions  in fact um  in regard to  the follow-up on  the cease fire agreement  that was made  today and  actually on  the 28th  of July and we  confirm my  today's meeting uh today's  meeting the G BC was  actually co- chaired by the  ministry of  or the Ministers of of  Defense of that  countries  and we have  already  signed an agreement  together by both sides Cambodia and Thailand and as  part of the um  signing all  of the agreement  we  agreed  that we  shall conduct uh  and I'll be  see in  2 weeks time  a region al border  committee meeting at the region uh  Regional level  and that  will be 1 of  the mechanism s in following up uh cease fire agreement  and following that  uh another  GB C meeting will be conducted conduct ed in 1 month 's time  in any case  should  a cease fire be violated uh  then we might need  to  reconvene another  GBC  extraordinary session in  anytime soon according  to the situation um  we have already  coordinated and have entrust ed the local  provincial Governor's uh of those provinces to  actually monitor and to check whether the  areas of  the homes  of the local  population are  safe for them to  return to uh  however my  early concern  here is that  there are  still unexploded Ordnance un exploded rockets and  ordinance  um found in  the area  which are deemed safe  for people to  return  homes so  we still  worry about that  and we  still need to have  our Authority parties and the re levant agencies  to actually go in and  diffuse and  disarm  those rockets and um un exploded Ordnance  uh once they  are de emed appropriate  and  safe to return then  uh the local  authorities  will allow  the uh  villages to return cop per Cap all right  so that's it  thank you so much  lad ies gentlemen thank you   for  for       the lot longer  Bank for
