Malaysia became the first country in Sommai's visit since taking over the helm of the Royal Thai Armed Forces on October 1. Zulkifeli said among elements in the Calfex involved participants jumping from the aircraft and carrying out attacks in several training areas in Thailand. On his meeting with Sommai, Zulkifeli said he and his Thai counterpart had agreed to jointly build a wall along the Malaysia-Thailand border. (Bernama)
