Thailand’s decision to terminate the 2001 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Cambodia on maritime claims in the Gulf of Thailand may satisfy long-standing domestic political demands, but the harder challenge lies ahead. The legal, diplomatic, and political consequences that follow, writes Supalak Ganjanakhundee, could prove significantly more complex than the act of cancellation itself.

Press Release of the Ministry of the National Defence of the Kingdom of Cambodia:

The rejection of the accusation reported by the Thai Army Spokesperson Team, which alleged that five gunshots were heard in the Phnom Bak area of Samraong City, Oddar Meanchey Province, accusing the Cambodian forces of instigating the incident. Such a report is false and misleading information fabricated to incite confusion, mislead public opinion, and escalate tensions along the border.
