PHNOM PENH – Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has emphasised the need for Cambodia and Việt Nam to intensify information sharing to develop relations.

The PM hosted a reception in Phnom Penh yesterday for visiting Vietnamese Minister of Information and Communications Trương Minh Tuấn.

Vietnamese ministries and agencies will coordinate with the Cambodian side to deepen bilateral relations in all areas, including information and communications, he added.

On the same day, Tuấn held talks with Cambodian Minister of Posts and Telecommunications Tram Iv Tek and Minister of Information Khieu Kanharith. 

During the meetings, the two sides discussed how to foster collaboration in this field.

During Tuấn’s visit to Cambodia from Wednesday to today, the two sides signed four cooperative documents, including an agreement to intensify information sharing from 2016-2020 between the Vietnamese Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) and the Cambodian Ministry of Information.

The minutes of the meeting between the MIC and the Cambodian Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications which realises cooperative contents of their cooperation agreement on posts and telecommunications, signed on September 22, 2012, were also shared.
