TAIPEI, Taiwan -- The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) said yesterday that it regrets Cambodia's statement that it will not allow Taiwan to set up an office in Cambodia.
"We regret Cambodia Foreign Ministry's stance to make politics take precedence over all other matters," the MOFA's acting spokeswoman Phoebe Yeh said after Cambodia's media reported that the Cambodian Foreign Ministry issued a statement that the country abides by the "one-China" policy, and will not allow Taiwan to set up offices there.
The semi-official Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TETRA) had requested permission from Cambodia to set up an office in the country.
Yeh said that the plan to set up an office in countries that Taiwan has no diplomatic relations with aims at developing substantial and mutually beneficial relations, which has nothing to do with the countries' relations with China.
