PM: Thailand Will Not Withdraw from World Heritage Committee

The prime minister has reiterated that the government will not withdraw from the Unesco World Heritage Committee as Thailand can leverage its seat in negotiations with Cambodia.

Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva discussed on his weekly television program about the visit to Thailand by Koichiro Matsuura, a representative from Unesco, saying that the trip was not intended to interfere with the Thai-Cambodia border conflict.

Abhisit also talked about the visit in a positive light, saying that it was good for Unesco to hear both sides of the argument.
