No date for reopening of Cambodian-Thailand border at Aranyaprathet


SA KAEO: There is no current timetable to reopen the main gateway with Cambodia, through Aranyaprathet, provincial governor Worapan Suwannut said.

The governor said the province was not ready to open the gate to Poipet at Klong Luk border crossing in Aranyaprathet district, closed to help stop the spread of the coronavirus.

“I cannot say when the border will reopen. It depends on approval from the government,” he said on Wednesday.

Mr Worapan held a teleconference with Banteay Meachey governor Oum Reatrey on Tuesday, with Cambodia hoping for the reopening of the checkpoint to revitalise border trade, especially business at Rong Kluea market.
