In a landmark move, Cambodia and Thailand have agreed to a mutual ceasefire along their shared border, announcing that ASEAN observers will be deployed to oversee the new truce.
Officials from both sides welcomed the deal as a vital step toward easing weeks of tensions. The ASEAN monitoring teamâdrawn from neutral member statesâwill verify compliance with ceasefire terms and provide regular reports to national authorities.
Experts say this agreement highlights ASEANâs growing role in mediating regional conflicts and could open doors to broader cooperation in Southeast Asia. Young global citizens and business innovators will be watching closely as stability returns to one of Asiaâs most dynamic corridors.
