Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Pham Van Tan said that over the past years, the Chang Riec border gate has served the demands of travel and trading for both localities’ people and businesses, contributing to socio-economic development and trade cooperation between Vietnam and Cambodia.
He asked Tboung Khmum province and relevant offices to maintain close management of the Chang Riec – Da border gate to facilitate the two sides’ trade exchange and socio-economic development, thus helping build a border line of peace, friendship, cooperation and development.
