Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has asked relevant sides to
further promote all-around cooperation with Cambodia on the basis of
equality and mutual benefits, therefore contributing to bolstering
Vietnam–Cambodia ties for the sake of the two peoples.

Chairing a ceremony to review the 2012 Vietnam–Cambodia Friendship
Year in Hanoi on March 4, Phuc hailed the year’s successful
activities, such as the inauguration of a relic site dedicated to
National Defence Mission 125, the predecessor of the Cambodian
revolutionary armed force, in southern Dong Nai province, and Border
Marker No. 314.

The Vietnam–Cambodia investment
cooperation conference in Kien Giang province, the 45th anniversary of
bilateral diplomatic ties, and a friendship cooperation conference
between the Vietnamese and Cambodian legislatures were also held in
2012.

The highlight of the year were activities to
support students, boost cultural and economic exchanges and delegation
exchanges between the two countries’ localities.

Events during the 2012 Vietnam–Cambodia Friendship Year were partly to
celebrate the 45th anniversary of diplomatic ties, and to strengthen
the fine neighbourliness, traditional friendship, comprehensive
cooperation and long-term sustainability between the two nations.-VNA
