The Cambodian senior officer informed General Giang of the outcomes of the cooperation between the NDA of Vietnam and his university over the past time. He also expressed deep thanks to Vietnam for its great support to save the country and its people from Pol Pot’s genocidal regime.

General Giang highly valued the above-mentioned cooperation achievements, especially in organizing short-term courses to train high-level command-staff for strategic and operational-level officers of the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces, saying that they have helped consolidate the solidarity between the two schools in particular and the two militaries in general.

General Giang affirmed that the Vietnamese Ministry of National Defense’s leadership will always support and create the best conditions for the two schools to expand their cooperation in the coming time.
