Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said that he will meet with United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon after Ban concluded his visit to Myanmar late Saturday.

The two sides will talk about ties between ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations), the United Nations, Myanmar and Thai-Cambodia border dispute, Abhisit was quoted by the Nation news website as saying.

Thailand currently chairs the ASEAN, which includes Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

Ban will end his two-day official visit to Myanmar late Saturday and will make a stop over at Thailand's Suvarnabhumi Airport at around 10:00 p.m. local time.

During his visit, Ban met with Myanmar top leader Senior-General Than Shwe, who is Chairman of the State Peace and Development Council in Myanmar's new capital of Nay Pyi Taw. A broad range of issues including long standing concerns to the U.N. and the international community as well as Aung San Suu Kyi's were discussed.

Ban also met with leaders of legal political parties and inspected the reconstruction in cyclone-hit areas.

Abhisit told reporters that he is well-prepared to talk with Ban about the current Thai-Cambodia disputes which have Preah Vihear Temple at the heart of the problem.

The area around Preah Vihear Temple, which was inscribed as a World Heritage Site on July 7 last year, has been the scene of a tense standoff between the Cambodian and Thai armed forces. The Cambodian government insisted that Thai troops have deployed on Cambodian soil, while Thailand said its troops are only in the disputed zone.
