This year's ASEAN Chair, Malaysia, is forming two dedicated teams to monitor and verify the implementation of the Cambodia-Thailand ceasefire agreement.

PUTRAJAYA, Malaysia (AP) — Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to an “unconditional” ceasefire starting at midnight, Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said Monday, a significant breakthrough to resolve five days of deadly border clashes that have killed dozens and displaced tens of thousands of people.

Along the border, there were signs of calm with some of the more than 260,000 people displaced by the fighting returning to their homes.
