He urged the association to convene its congress to perfect its organisation and operation, bringing together not only Vietnamese enterprises running business in Cambodia, but also those that want to invest in the country.

VCBA Permanent Vice President and General Secretary Heng LiHong said that the association, officially recognised by the Cambodian Ministry of Interior on January 30, has connected and maintained good relations with Cambodian leaders, while helping to promote the Vietnam-Cambodia trade.

It has also raised funds to repair schools, carried out charity activities, provided free medical examination and treatment for disadvantaged people in Cambodia, supported needy Khmer people in Vietnam, and responded to patriotic movements at home.

He said in the remainder of this year, the association will focus on maintaining the great solidarity among its members, expanding its membership, organising and participating in trade promotion events as well as supporting people of Vietnamese origin in Cambodia.
