Fugitive former Thai prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has made his first announcement since becoming an economic adviser to the Cambodian government two months ago.

A statement from Cambodia's economic and finance ministry says Mr Thaksin has pledged to fund two small-scale model farms.

Mr Thaksin has not disclosed how much funding he will provide, but suggested he will discuss the matter again next month.

The Kyodo news agency reports Mr Thaksin is planning to address Cambodian officials on tourism and investment.
