The Military Command of the Central Highlands province of Lam Dong and Cambodia’s Siem Reap province military sub-region have signed a memorandum of understanding to strengthen their partnership.

Under the document, which was signed by the two units’ commanders in Lam Dong’s Da Lat city on August 26, the two sides will regularly exchange information and experience.

They will also work together to put forth measures to prevent and combat trans-national crimes, terrorism, drug and weapon trafficking and actions that threaten each country’s security.

The Lam Dong provincial Military Command will assist the Siem Reap provincial military sub-region in upgrading and building barracks as well as supplying daily necessaries to the unit.

They will regularly inform each other about flood prevention, rescue efforts as well as national disaster and disease situations directly associated with the armed forces in each country.

Apart from boosting cultural and sports exchanges with the Lam Dong Military Command, the Cambodian side will provide information about Vietnamese soldiers and volunteers who lost their lives during the war in Siem Reap.

The same day, the two units set up a twinning relationship and reached regulations on their ties.-VNA
