Prime Minister Hun Sen left for India Friday en route to meet with officials over defense and economic cooperation, as well as petroleum agreements.
He is scheduled to stay for 10 days and will meet with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, President Pratibha Patil and Vice President Mohammad Hamid Ansari, the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The two countries are expected to sign seven agreements, including prisoner exchange, defense and cooperation in the petroleum sector, the statement said.
Human Rights Party Vice President Keo Remy said Friday many of the agreements were "useless," while foreign debt for Cambodia was "dramatically increasing."
"We are worried about our younger generation, who will be paying the debt," he said, adding, however, that the cooperation on petroleum could be "a benefit for Cambodia."
Sam Rainsy Party lawmaker Yim Sovann said agreements with idea could yield "advantages for both countries."
"But the thing is, how prepared we should be to receive the benefit of this cooperation," he said.

Hello, HRP!

Don’t anyone think that it is good time through Hen Sen and his members out for good.
If stay for 10 days he can stay for a lot long.
Generals let’s do all together
Are you saying you like military ruled government like Pol Pot, 11:52.
4:47 There are some military that are national lists. They are the victime of the Sen's actions and also would like to save the country from our agreesive Youn and Siem. No way in this would that some would like to have a KR likw Pol Pot. He is not a nationalist. He revanged against the Cambodians because his failure in the sociaty.
The country can be tople and run a democratic civilian in modern history.
It is just a suggest for a change instead on just sit and compaint. Solution and the way someone care for the country is different from action that distroy the country
9:06, FYI, people are not willing to risk their hard works on any new civil war especially when they are still living the aftermath of the last civil war.
