Cambodian PM praises outgoing Chinese ambassador for active contributions to Cambodia-China ties

Xinhua, August 11, 2016 Adjust font size:

Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen on Thursday appreciated outgoing Chinese Ambassador Bu Jianguo for her active contributions to deepening Cambodia-China ties, said a Cambodian senior official.

"During a farewell meeting, Samdech Techo Prime Minister said that during Ambassador Bu's three-year tenure, the comprehensive strategic partnership of cooperation between the two countries has been deepened," Kao Kim Hourn, minister attached to the prime minister, told reporters after the meeting.

The two countries elevated their ties to the comprehensive strategic partnership of cooperation in December 2010.

The prime minister said that in the past three years, China had provided a lot of grant aid, non-interest loans and concessional loans to Cambodia for development projects, particularly road and bridge projects.

Hun Sen said Bu had not only actively worked to deepen Cambodia-China relations, but only contributed to enhancing ASEAN-China ties during her diplomatic term.

For her part, Bu expressed sincere thanks to the Cambodian government for working closely with the Chinese Embassy, which had led to her successful completion of diplomatic mission in Cambodia. Endit
