Army Commander-in-Chief Gen Anupong Paochinda said Friday that it is impossible for Thais to plot a coup in Cambodia.

"I think it's can't be done," Anupong said, referring to allegations by Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen that the Thai government had planned to stage a coup to topple the Cambodian government.

Anupong said the Thai government would not get involved in politics of a neighbouring country.
