Hun Sen thanked Vietnam for coordinating with and supporting Cambodia in successfully organising a ceremony to mark 45 years of his journey to overthrow the Pol Pot genocidal regime.
Showing his delight at the great and comprehensive achievements gained by the Vietnamese people under the leadership of the CPV headed by General Secretary Trong, he said, expressing his belief that Vietnam would obtain new and greater results, and successfully realise the 13th National Party Congress’s Resolution.
