PHNOM PENH, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Friday instructed all ministries and troops along Cambodian-Thai border to build a "trustful environment" with Thai counterparts in order to restore the two countries’ bilateral cooperation in the context of the Pheu Thai-formed government, according to a press release after the weekly meeting of the Council of Ministers. “The premier also noticed that since the Pheu Thai Party was announced the victory in the general election, the situation along Cambodian-Thai border has turned good,” added the statement. The former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra's Pheu Thai Party won a landslide victory-265 out of the 500 parliamentary seats-in the general election on July 3. Yingluck Shinawatra, 44, sister of Thaksin and Pheu Thai PM candidate, was elected by the House of Representatives on Friday morning to be Thailand's 28th Prime Minister and the first female Prime Minister of Thailand. Cambodia and Thailand have had sporadic border conflict over territorial dispute near the Preah Vihear temple since the UNESCO listed the 11th century Preah Vihear temple as a World Heritage Site on July 7, 2008. Since then, both sides have built up military forces along the border and periodic clashes have happened, resulting in the deaths of troops and civilians on both sides. Cambodia hopes that with the Pheu Thai-formed government, the two countries’ border conflict will be solved out peacefully.
