Viet Nam attaches great importance to its relations with Cambodia and would make every effort to nurture the bilateral traditional friendship and comprehensive co-operation, said a senior Party official.

Hoang Binh Quan, a member of the Communist Party of Viet Nam's (CPV) Central Committee and head of its Commission for External Relations, made the statement at meetings with several of Cambodia's leaders during his visit to the country from February 14-15.

Quan, who doubles as the Special Envoy of Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, was received by King Norodom Sihamoni, Chairman of the Cambodian People's Party (CPP) and President of the Senate Chea Sim, Vice Chairman of the CPP and Prime Minister Hun Sen, and Honorary Chairman of the CPP and President of the National Assembly Heng Samrin.

Quan informed his hosts about the outcomes of the CPV's 11th National Congress, saying that documents adopted at the congress were a profound summary of the theoretical and practical issues of socialism construction and of Viet Nam's national defence during its 25 years of renewal; 20 years of implementing the CPV's 1991 Political Platform; 10 years of performing the 2001-2010 socio-economic development strategy; and five years of executing the Resolution of the 10th National Party Congress.

The documents were the essence of the will and desires of the entire Party and people, the continued confirmation, perfection and development of the Party's renewal policy and a foundation for the country to become a modern industrialised nation by 2020, he said.

The Cambodian leaders thanked Party General Secretary Trong for sending the special envoy to inform them about the CPV's 11th National Congress, which reflected the time-honoured friendship and mutual trust between leaders of the two nations.

They said they believed that, under the sound leadership of the CPV with Nguyen Phu Trong as its General Secretary, the Vietnamese people would successfully implement the 11th National Party Congress's Resolution and reap even greater rewards, thereby building Viet Nam into a modern industrialised country by 2020.

The Cambodian leaders used the occasion to thank the Party, Government and people of Viet Nam for the valuable support and assistance they had extended to Cambodia during their past struggles for national liberation, escape from Pol Pots genocial regime as well as in national reconstruction and development.
