The 2016 Vietnamese Cultural Week has recently concluded in Cambodia.

According to Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Dang Thi Bich Lien, the cultural week was one of the crucial events to execute the two countries’ plan for cooperation in culture and fine arts in 2012-17.

It was also a chance to boost the two’s bilateral friendship and neighborliness, she added.

Speaking at the opening ceremony on August 26, Cambodian Minister of Culture and Fine Arts Phoeurng Sackona expressed her appreciation for major milestones in cultural cooperation between Vietnam and Cambodia.

The minister thanked the Vietnamese Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism for supporting Cambodia in the construction of several cultural buildings.

    Don't be nasty. You keep talking nasty, the world will ignore you. You keep being nasty, eventually UN will pass a final resolution to your people, that is if your people cannot be saved.
