Malaysia's PM is cool with that Cambodia-Thailand truce. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim gave a thumbs up to the immediate ceasefire that started Saturday at noon. He posted on Facebook, saying that stopping the fight shows that both sides get that civilians come first. He pointed out that the agreement has practical steps, like having an ASEAN observer team check things and setting up direct talks between defense officials. Anwar thinks this gives everyone a foundation for stability if they actually follow through.

He mentioned that Malaysia is passing the ASEAN Chair role to the Philippines soon. He said Malaysia will back any work to make sure both countries keep their promises. The goal is to protect ASEAN's reputation as a peaceful region. The ceasefire deal was signed by defense ministers from Cambodia and Thailand during a border committee meeting. It aims to stop all fighting that kicked off again earlier in December.
