VNA (Hanoi)

VietNamNet Bridge – The 30th anniversary of Cambodia ’s Liberation Day (January 7) was celebrated in Hanoi on Jan. 6, by the Cambodian embassy and the Vietnam Union of Friendship Organisations (VUFO).

Prominent among participants were Vu Oanh, former Politburo member and head of the Liaison Committee for former Vietnamese Experts in Cambodia ; Vu Mao, Chairman of the Vietnam-Cambodia Friendship Association; Cambodian Ambassador to Vietnam Vann Phal; and Khamphan Anlavan, counselor of the Lao embassy.

Jan 7 holds significance as a turning point in Cambodian history, as it is the day that the Cambodian people came back to life and began national reconstruction, said Vu Mao.

Liberation Day is also a symbol of the traditional friendly relations between the two fraternal countries, Vietnam and Cambodia, he said.

Ambassador Vann Phal said the Cambodian people have great appreciation to Vietnam for the events of January 7, 1979.

Vietnam’s involvement saved Cambodian lives, and helped fight the Khmer Rouge, he said.

He stressed Vietnam’s timely assistance, saying that he appreciates that many Vietnamese soldiers died for the January 7 victory.

He thanked the Vietnamese Party, State and people, and especially the families of those who died for the revival of Cambodia.

Phal said he wished for Vietnam and Cambodia to maintain the fine friendly and neighbourly relations and comprehensive cooperation.

The celebrations took place with song and dance performances by Cambodian students studying in Vietnam.

The Ho Chi Minh City chapters of the VUFO and the Vietnam-Cambodia Friendship Association also held a function marking the Cambodian Liberation Day.

well, the word "liberation" was call such because of the khmer translation "romdoss", which means to be free from something as in reform (lasbahng) or to be rescue for suffering, etc..., it would call it "end of KR rule day" as it sounds apolitical.

khmer people hate the vietnamese for stealing khmer lands, especially khmer krom or the mekong delta region belonged to cambodia, until the viet thieves stole it from us. how can we love and trust the viets for anything they do in cambodia or for cambodia! that's what they get from khmer people for stealing khmer krom lands and people from cambodia! that's the reason, in case people who don't understand the reason why khmer hated the vietnamese so much! there's a reason for that! god bless cambodia.
