Pride Month kicks off in Thailand

Thailand has kicked off its annual month of celebrating the LGBTQ community as the country takes steps to ensure equal rights for sexual minorities. Pride Month started with a parade in central Bangkok on Sunday. Thousands from Thailand and around the world marched through the streets of the capital with rainbow flags. The celebration month is the first to be held since Thailand legalized same-sex marriage in January. Such couples are guaranteed the same rights as those in heterosexual unions, including those for tax benefits, inheritance and adoption. But rights activists say more is needed for gender equality, including laws to allow citizens to identify as they choose, regardless of sex assigned at birth. More parades are scheduled across the country throughout the month.

Thailand to hold talks with Cambodia on border control

Thailand's defense chief says his country is determined to cool tensions with Cambodia quickly after their military clash last week. The countries' armed forces exchanged fire briefly in a contested border area. The incident left one Cambodian soldier dead. Both sides have already withdrawn their forces from the site of the incident. Thai Defence Minister Phumtham Wechayachai spoke to NHK on Sunday on the sidelines of the Shangri-La security forum. He said representatives of the two countries will soon hold a meeting of the Joint Boundary Committee. "We hope that there will be talks, and we are staying firm on nonconfrontation principles and pushing for a peaceful resolution between neighbors," he said. Meanwhile, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet posted a message on social media suggesting both sides bring their border disputes to the International Court of Justice.
