Thailand’s Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has apologized for the political turbulence set off by a leaked recording of her negotiating with Cambodia’s former leader in the two nations' latest border dispute.

Amid escalating border disputes between Cambodia and Thailand, the leaked phone conversation ignited national outrage in Thailand, prompting an opposition party to call for Paetongtarn’s resignation and a party within her coalition to quit.

Several Cambodian nationals continued to smuggle Thai products into Cambodia, including bottled water and energy drinks, following former Senate President Hun Sen's recent Facebook post.
