PHNOM PENH, March 8 (AP) - (Kyodo)—Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Monday slammed Surin Pitsuwan, secretary general of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, for a critical comment he made on a rocket launching test by Cambodia.

Hun Sen said Surin, a former Thai foreign minister, is not suitable to be secretary general of the grouping, saying his remarks were "interfering with the internal affairs of Cambodia," which is a member state of ASEAN.

Surin was quoted by Malaysia's official Bernama news agency as saying that "Cambodia might have signaled as though the region was unstable" by conducting the test. He added, "We are concerned with such a development."

Hun Sen warned that he will raise the issue of the role of the ASEAN secretary general at the grouping's upcoming summit to be held next month in Vietnam.

Cambodia last Thursday fired 215 rounds from a Russian-made rocket- launching system in Kompong Chhnang Province, about 90 kilometers northwest of Phnom Penh.

Hun Sen called the move a routine military drill and said it is not intended to show Cambodia's military muscle to any country.

Cambodia has been locked in a territorial dispute with Thailand since 2008 and there have been sporadic military clashes between the two countries along their border.

ASEAN groups Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.
