The Vietnamese Government’s Committee for Religious Affairs and Cambodia’s Ministry of Cult and Religious Affairs held talks and signed a cooperation agreement on religious work for the 2015-2020 period in Ho Chi Minh City on February 2.
The document replaces the memorandum of understanding in the field between the two agencies in 2007.
During the talks, Pham Dung, Deputy Minister of Home Affairs and head of the Committee for Religious Affairs, spoke highly of two agencies’ cooperation on religious affairs in the past, saying that the two sides obtained achievements in the field via exchanging delegations and mutual support in organising international religion-related events in each country.
Meanwhile, Cambodian Minister Min Khin stressed the need to promote the cooperation agreement via meetings on religion between border-sharing provinces.
The increased cooperation on religious affairs will benefit the two countries’ people, helping them understand their traditions, culture and customs, Minister Min Khin said.
Host and guest shared experience in state management on religious affairs and assessed the results obtained in the implementation of the 2007 MoU.
The two sides agreed to step up delegation exchange, cooperation in personnel training in religious work, supporting cooperation between the Buddhist Sangha of Vietnam and the Cambodian Buddhist Sangha.-VNA
