Bangkok/Phnom Penh - Indonesia's effort to help resolve a border clash between Thailand and Cambodia appeared to have stalled Monday, when the country's top diplomat postponed a planned visit toPhnom Penh and Bangkok.
Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa postponed his planned visit, Cambodian Foreign Ministry spokesman Koy Kuong said.
Natalegawa had been expected to sign an agreement to deploy Indonesian monitors along the Thai-Cambodian border as a step towards ending a border conflict has flared on and off for three years.
'I think that maybe Thailand does not agree to sign the terms of reference for the monitors,' Koy Kuong said.
But Thai Foreign Ministry spokesman Thani Thongphakdi insisted over the weekend that Bangkok has no objection to the monitors.
