An Giang strengthens cooperation with Cambodia
Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister Yim Chhay Ly on October 17 made a fact-finding tour of the southern province of An Giang’s aquaculture farms and large-scale field model.
He also met with Provincial People’s Committee Chairman Vuong Binh Thanh and Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Vu Van Tam.
Thanh briefed the guests on the socio-economic development of An Giang with its strengths in agriculture and aquaculture.
He highlighted the good neighbourliness and friendship between the province and two Cambodian localities of Takeo and Kandan during the past years.
Deputy PM Yim Chhay Ly expressed his hope that An Giang will continue to assist the two provinces of Takeo and Kandan to develop agriculture and aquaculture, especially the application of the large-scale rice field model in these provinces.
He said he hopes that in the future, An Giang will help Cambodia with personnel training and technology transfer, in order to establish an aquatic breeding centre in Cambodia, meeting the demand for aquatic fry in the country.
