Vietnam and Cambodia have agreed to sign a number of agreements soon to further deepen their ties for the benefit of their people.
The agreements cover maritime transportation, cooperation in industry, mining and energy, criminal extradition, labour cooperation and legal support.
The accords were reached at the 11th meeting of the Vietnam-Cambodia Joint Committee for Economic, Cultural, Scientific and Technological Cooperation in Cambodia’s Preah Sihanouk province on December 3-4.
Under the co-chairmanship of Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Pham Gia Khiem and Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Hor Nam Hong, the officials also agreed to address changes in visa exemptions for holders of ordinary passports in the near future.
Additionally, they unanimously agreed to boost cooperation, help each other in developing human resources, and to facilitate trade and investment.
They reaffirmed that the two countries will work harder to raise bilateral trade to 2 billion USD in 2010.
The officials pledged to encourage businesspeople to enhance ties, deploy licensed projects more effectively, and expand investment in the areas of oil and gas production, mining, energy, telecommunications, aviation, finance, banking, agriculture, food processing, fertilizer and animal feed.
They vowed to boost cooperation in agriculture, transport and communication infrastructure development, healthcare, labour issues, sports and physical training, culture and tourism in addition to speeding up border demarcation to complete the work prior to the end of 2012 as previously agreed.
At this meeting, pledges were made for pressing ahead with collaboration in security and defence and the fight against cross-border crimes, and coordinating within sub-regional cooperation frameworks.
Reviewing the results of implementating the agreements reached at the committee’s 10th meeting, Vietnamese and Cambodian officials said they were delighted with the development of their comprehensive ties, notably in economy, trade and investment.
The two countries’ defence and security cooperation has been intensified; security and stability along their shared borders has been maintained, border demarcation and marker planting have been stepped up, and more attention has been paid to cooperation among localities, ministries and sectors, they noted.
The Joint Committee will convene its 12th meeting in Vietnam.
During his time in Cambodia, Khiem paid a courtesy visit to Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen and paid tribute to fallen Vietnamese volunteers in Cambodia at a monument in Preah Sihanouk province.
