The Commerce Ministry is strictly monitoring cross-border trade with Cambodia for any fallout from Thailand's withdrawal from Unesco's World Heritage panel.
Commerce Minister Porntiva Nakasai said yesterday that the ministry would keep a close eye on the border situation, as it could affect export growth.
Cambodia accounts for 10 per cent of Thailand's total cross-border trade.
If any conflict surfaces, the ministry will immediately report it to the Cabinet at today's meeting, she said.
