Vietnam Focuses On Building Infrastructure With Laos, Cambodia [at the Indochinese Triangle]

PHNOM PENH, Feb 21 (Bernama) -- Vietnam will continue developing infrastructure at the Development Triangle region and foster human resources training cooperation with Laos and Cambodia, Minister of Planning and Investment Vo Hong Phuc said.

Quoting Vo, the Vietnam news agency (VNA) reported that Vietnam will build a boarding school in Cambodia's eastern province of Mondulkiri and provide vocational training for Cambodian and Laos students.

The Development Triangle, which covers 10 border provinces of Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam, is an area with huge potential for the development of hydro-electric power and mining, the cultivation of industrial crops and tourism.

During the conference, representatives from the three countries affirmed their determination to make the Development Triangle an area with high economic growth.

More efforts should be made to quickly turn the area into an economic hub, linking the three countries based on the production of exports, they said.

They agreed to quickly introduce policies with preferential treatment for the Development Triangle and put forth a roadmap for promoting cooperation with China, Japan and the Republic of Korea.

They decided to organise their third conference in Laos early next year.

i think it's ok to help build schools for cambodia, just don't take advantage of poor people like vote buying and asking for a favor in return or something or asking cambodia to cede land to youn or something along that line because it will look bad to other well-to-do cambodians or highly educated cambodians who do exist by the way. help only in the name of humanitarians is ok, i guess. be warned, youn!

Good for you Vo Hong Fuck! There are many and many poor Vietnamese communities in Vietname and it is in your interest to invest in them and not in Cambodia because Cambodia doesn't need any of your Vietcong investment! Get the fuck out of Cambodia!

This development project is just the facade of Indochina Federation attempt that has been changed from militarism to economic development.

But the expansionism agenda is still keeping the same.
