Prime Minister bids farewell to Cambodian ambassador

Hanoi (VNA) – Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc on July 25 hosted a reception for Cambodian Ambassador Hul Phany, who came to say goodbye at the end of his tenure in Vietnam.

At the meeting in Hanoi, the PM praised the diplomat for his contributions to boosting relations between Vietnam and Cambodia across many fields, ranging from economy and trade to culture, education, national defence and security.

He suggested the two countries coordinate with each other to promptly complete border demarcation and marker planting, and build a shared border of peace, cooperation and development.

The host called on the two sides to raise the sense of vigilance against hostile forces who aim to sabotage the sound bilateral relationship, while maintaining the friendship and solidarity between the two countries’ people.

He noted his hope that the ambassador, in any position, will further contribute to consolidating and developing the relationship.

For his part, Ambassador Hul Phany applauded Vietnam’s outstanding performance in all realms, especially in infrastructure.

Cambodia attaches importance to and wishes to work together with Vietnam to strengthen the friendship and fruitful cooperation, he said, pledging to continue fostering bilateral ties.-VNA
