Cambodian Consul General in HCM City Sok Dareth highlighted the special relations between Vietnam and Cambodia and effective assistance of the Party, Government and voluntary soldiers of Vietnam to help the people and country of Cambodia escape from the genocidal regime.
He underlined that progress and achievements of Cambodia are inseparable with the two countries’ cooperation and mutual support.
The traditional friendship and comprehensive cooperation between the countries should be consolidated to benefit people of Vietnam and Cambodia, he said.
