Japan to assist Vietnam's hegemony on Cambodia and Laos in the Indochinese Triangle

Japan commits to assist Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam

HANOI, Aug. 12 (Xinhua) -- Japan remains strong commitment to providing assistance to the Development Triangle Area of Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam (CLV), the Lao newspaper Vientiane Times reported Wednesday.

The commitment was made by Ishikane Kimihiro, deputy head of the Southeast and Southwest Asian Department of Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs at the third CLV-Japan working level meeting held in Vientiane.

The meeting was to review the implementation of cooperation activities funded by Japan and draw up future direction to attract more direct investment of Japan to the triangle area, said the newspaper.

Kimihiro said that his country's assistance would contribute to stability and prosperity of the CLV countries in particular and that of Asia in general.

Japan has so far provided 20 million U.S. dollars for development related to the triangle, said Ya Seng, an official from Lao Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The development triangle area is located in the border areas of the three CLV countries that share many common factors. These include untapped natural resources, potential for economic development and similar socio-cultural conditions.

don't start to attack and chastise japan, too, just because japan don't think like you do, here! japan is not in the dark age or stone age mentality like some of you here! learn from japan as japan is one of the most affluent and most developed nation in all of asia and perhaps all of the world as well. i love japan and been to japan for visit many many times and i can see how beautiful, and modernized japan is. so cambodia can and should learn from japan the know how and the skill so cambodia can become similar to japan. god bless cambodia.

It's funny to see that both Cambodia & Loas turn their back on Thailand. After all, the three are having the same culture and belief, except language. What's wrong Thai? Did you ever wonder why? You need to drop this belongs to you that belongs to you. May be that will help a little bit. Don't you think that all those behaviors are annoying to the neighbor?
