BEIJING, Aug 15 (Reuters) - China urged Cambodia and Thailand to continue efforts towards restoring a lasting peace at their border as soon as possible, a Chinese foreign ministry statement said on Friday as it summarised an earlier trilateral meeting.

In the statement, China reiterated its support for the Southeast Asia nations to achieve a sustainable ceasefire after the worst clashes in their long-running border dispute in more than a decade.
