They agreed to cooperate in building management regulations applicable to the press and post and telecommunications sectors, improving professional skills, and developing infrastructural facilities for radio, television, and telecom stations.
They aimed to create favourable conditions and an attractive environment for post and telecommunication businesses to invest in and conduct business in each other’s countries.
The Cambodian officials requested the assistance of the Vietnamese side in areas relating to expertise, human resources training, and the enhancement of the management capacity of the press, internet and telecom services.
During the visit, Minister Hop and his entourage were received by Deputy Prime Minister Sok An, who referred to Minister Hop’s visit as a major contribution to consolidating the traditional friendship between the two countries and further bolstering cooperation and assistance between the relevant Vietnamese and Cambodian ministries.
