A delegation from the Cambodian Women’s League, headed by Senator Mean Sam An, is visiting Vietnam from April 12-18 to strengthen bilateral ties of friendship and cooperation.
The delegates were received by the Chairwoman of the Vietnam Women’s Union, Nguyen Thi Thanh Hoa, who underlined the need to preserve and develop the time-honoured, all-round relationship between the two organizations.

Ms Hoa highlighted the significance of the visit by the Cambodian delegation, which coincides with Vietnam’s celebrations of the 35th anniversary of South Vietnam’s Liberation and the 1000th anniversary of Thang Long-Hanoi.

She briefed her counterpart on the Vietnam Women’s Union’s recent activities, including three projects approved by the government such as promoting vocational training, building an academy for Vietnamese women, and preparing them for the process of industrialization and modernization.

During the reception, Ms Sam An said that the Cambodian people consider Vietnam’s achievements in national construction as their own and recalled the support and sacrifice of numerous Vietnamese women for Cambodia’s struggle against the Khmer Rouge genocide.

She said that both women’s organizations should strengthen their traditional ties of friendship and cooperation as well as boosting ties between people in the border provinces.
