Cambodia Preparing for Another Extraordinary RBC Meeting Next Week
AKP Phnom Penh, August 17, 2025 --
The 4th Military Region of Cambodia convened a preparatory meeting today to lay the groundwork for the upcoming Extraordinary Cambodia-Thailand Regional Border Committee (RBC) meeting scheduled for next week.
The update was shared by H.E. Lt. Gen. Maly Socheata, Under Secretary of State and Spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defence, during a regular press briefing at 11:00 a.m.
“The purpose of this preparatory meeting is to ensure that the upcoming RBC meeting proceeds smoothly, constructively, and achieves positive outcomes,” she underlined.
The forthcoming RBC session builds on the spirit and agreements reached at the Extraordinary General Border Committee (GBC) Meeting between Cambodia and Thailand, held on Aug. 7, 2025, in Kuala Lumpur.
Cambodia has again and again reaffirmed that borders cannot be altered through the use of force and stressed that all border issues must be resolved through technical processes and international legal mechanisms.
