A meeting between Thai and Cambodian military commanders planned for Tuesday was cancelled after RCAF commanders were called to an urgent meeting in Siem Reap province. "The meeting planned was cancelled because [the RCAF commanders] had an urgent duty to work," Srey Doek, Commander of Division 3, told the Post Tuesday. "I don't know yet when the meeting will be rescheduled, but I hope officials will arrange it in the near future," he added.
