KUALA LUMPUR – In a major development, the Prime Ministers of Cambodia and Thailand are set to fly to Malaysia this Monday night for high-stakes talks aimed at ending the border clashes that have raised alarms across the region.

Malaysian Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan broke the news Sunday evening, confirming that Samdech Hun Manet and Phumtham Wechayachai have agreed to meet in Malaysia, under the country’s mediation.

“Both sides have total confidence in Malaysia and asked me personally to mediate,” Hasan revealed, adding that no other foreign countries will be involved in the talks.

This surprise summit follows a bold ceasefire push on Friday by Malaysian PM Anwar Ibrahim, ASEAN’s current chair, and a Saturday announcement by U.S. President Donald Trump confirming both Cambodia and Thailand’s willingness to negotiate peace.
