Construction of the first 1.3-kilometre section of Thailand's border fence with Cambodia in Chanthaburi is 45% complete, a parliamentary delegation has been told.
Monthien Songpracha, a chair of the House Committee on National Security, Border Affairs, National Strategy, and National Reform, said on Sunday his team inspected the site in Pong Nam Ron district on Saturday.
Naval Task Force Chanthaburi commander Capt Pratchaya Hanthiam briefed the committee that the wall is being constructed close to the agreed boundary line, with prior notification to Cambodian counterparts to prevent misunderstandings.
