The Royal Thai Navy (RTN) has denied allegations circulating on social media that it failed to act against the construction of a sediment-retention structure in disputed maritime areas along the Thai-Cambodian border.
The force insisted Thai authorities have opposed the project by Cambodia through all available channels and have prevented it from proceeding as originally planned. Claims that it had neglected its duty to protect national interests were based on incomplete information and could mislead the public about the facts surrounding the case.
