ASEAN and the Thai-Cambodian Conflict: The Final Stage at Preah Vihear?

ASEAN's failure to resolve the Thai-Cambodian conflict over Preah Vihear temple underscores its limited effectiveness in managing regional disputes. This study argues that ASEAN missed an opportunity to mediate, potentially weakening its credibility as a conflict resolution body in Southeast Asia. The analysis focuses on ASEAN's role, framing the dispute as a critical test case for its ability to address land and maritime border conflicts. The research employs qualitative methods to assess ASEAN's response, highlighting the implications of inaction.
