Minister Prak Sokhonn briefed his host on outcomes of the 16th meeting of the Viet Nam-Cambodia Joint Commission on Economic, Cultural, Scientific and Technological Cooperation, including discussions on a wide range of issues such as economy, trade, investment, culture, society, security, and defense as well as their determination to thoroughly settle border-related issues.
The State President proposed that in the coming time, the two sides should exert more efforts in seeking more effective measures to finish the rest of the work, while coordinating closely in managing a shared border towards peace and stability.
He said that he hopes the Cambodian side will continue applying flexibly related policies to assist Vietnamese Cambodians, with the consideration of political, legal, historical and social factors to create optimal conditions for the community, helping them settle down in the host country and make contributions to the local development.
