Khmer Times | 24 October 2016

The prime minister and senior government officials are due to fly to Hanoi today for a busy two days of international summits and conferences involving regional leaders.
 

According to a press release from the Foreign Ministry, the Cambodian delegation will attend the eighth Cambodia-Laos-Myanmar-Vietnam (CLMV) Summit, seventh Ayayawady-Chao Phraya-Mekong Economic Cooperation Strategy (ACMECS) Summit and the 2016 World Economic Forum Mekong Conference.
 

“Samdech Techo Prime Minister will deliver his interventions at these three significant meetings,” the press release said.
 

It noted that the prime minister would be accompanied by Public Works Minister Sun Chanthol, Tourism Minister Thong Khon and Minister of Commerce Pan Sorasak.
 

All three events will discuss ways to boost regional cooperation and business, the ministry said.
 

Chinese state news agency Xinhua said that at a press conference last Wednesday, Vietnamese Deputy Foreign Minister Dang Dinh Quy described the two summits as “meetings among brothers, traditional friends and neighbors.”
