Phuc congratulated the Cambodian people on the great achievements they have recorded over the past time, particularly in security-politics and pandemic containment, saying the living standards of the Cambodian people have been improved significantly and Cambodia’s position has been advanced in the region and the world at large.

The Vietnamese leader expressed his hope that Cambodia will further prosper and grow in the time ahead.

For his part, Say Chhum said Phuc’s visit will contribute to tightening the neighbourliness and friendship between the two countries, and noted his belief that the Vietnamese Party, State and people will successfully implement the Resolution adopted at the 13th National Party Congress.

Both affirmed their resolve to consolidate the good neighbourliness, traditional friendship and comprehensive, sustainable and long-term cooperation between the two countries.

They rejoiced at the active development of the bilateral collaboration across spheres and sectors, including the legislative ties, despite the complexity of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Phuc lauded the regular exchanges, coordination and mutual support between the Vietnamese National Assembly and the Cambodian Senate, both bilaterally and at regional and international parliamentary forums.

They shared the view that legislative bodies of the two countries should further support and create favourable legal corridors to enhance the economic, trade and investment relations, as well as people-to-people exchanges, particularly between youngsters and localities, especially border ones.
