Governor of Prey Veng province Chea Somethy, on behalf of the Cambodian provinces of Tboung Khmum, Svay Rieng, Kampong Cham and Oddar Meanchey, wished leaders and people of Tay Ninh health, happiness and good luck in the New Year.
He noted that thanks to the two Governments’ attention, the Cambodian provinces sharing the borderline with Tay Ninh have inked comprehensive and long-term cooperation agreements with the Vietnamese side.
They have recorded encouraging results in economic, trade and social partnerships and in ensuring security and order in border areas, thus bringing a number of benefits to their people, especially border residents, he added.
