The four-day trip is made at the invitation of President of the Cambodian People's Party Samdech Techo Hun Sen, President of the Cambodian National Assembly Samdech Khuon Sudary, and Chairman of the Standing Committee of the ICAPP Chung Eui-yong.
The chief legislator is accompanied by Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc and representatives of several NA committees, localities, and ministries.
Vice Chairwoman of the NA Committee for External Relations Le Thu Ha said this marks Man’s first official visit to Cambodia as the top legislator.
The visit holds significant importance, reaffirming the foreign policy set forth by the 13th National Party Congress, which gives high priority to the "good neighbourliness, traditional friendship, comprehensive cooperation, and long-term sustainability" with Cambodia, she noted.
It underscores the mutual trust and close bond between the high-ranking leaders of the two nations, particularly between the NA Chairman and Cambodia's top leaders, the official continued.
During the visit, the two countries’ leaders are scheduled to outline major directions and measures to enhance the effectiveness of and create new momentum for economic cooperation, and promote connectivity between Vietnam and Cambodia in the future, Ha said, adding the visit is also expected to foster the bilateral legislative ties.
With regard to ICAPP 12, Ha said the leader’s attendance at the event reflects the Vietnamese Party’s commitment to active and constructive engagement in ICAPP, aiming to strengthen ties with political parties across Asia, contribute to addressing regional issues, and enhance relations with the Cambodian People's Party.
Meanwhile, his attendance at IPTP 11 as a guest of the host country demonstrates Vietnam's support and goodwill toward Cambodia, particularly during its tenure as IPTP Chair.
