Stepping up their cooperation in fighting international terrorism, India and Thailand on Friday decided to set up a committee to share information about terrorists.
The two countries would also cooperate in economic and security matters, Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra told reporters after a breakfast meeting with India's Deputy Prime Minister Lal Kischenchand Advani.
During the wide-ranging discussions, Advani is understood to have raised the issue of cross-border terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir. He also impressed upon the need for bilateral cooperation on providing legal assistance and having an extradition treaty in place.
