China is ready to boost the the bilateral comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership through the implementation of specific plans and projects between the two countries, thus bringing more tangible benefits to the two peoples, he said.

Zhou thanked Cambodia for its firm support to China on issues related to Taiwan, Tibet and Xinjiang, and also praised it for doing an exellent job in cooperating with China in cracking down on cross-border crimes. He also thanked Hun Sen for his outstanding contribution to the development of the China-Cambodian friendship.

Hun Sen said Zhou's visit would further help boost the traditional friendship between the two countries.

Cambodia will firmly adhere to the one China policy, and will never allow any foreign forces to disturb the overall situation of the China-Cambodia friendship, interfere in the internal affairs of both countries or undermine their security and stability at home, Hun Sen said.

Hun Sen thanked China for its longstanding, enormous assistance and support for Cambodia and hoped more and more Chinese enterprises would come and invest in his country.

He also hoped the two countries would further strengthen cooperation in development of infrustructure, including roads, bridges and irrigation works.

On Saturday, Zhou and Hun Sen also attended a signing ceremony for a number of cooperation agreements between the two countries.

Hi Everyone,

One of KI-Media member who has his name in Facebook as Khmer Sovannaphumi but his real name is Pang Sokhoeun, former political asylum and now living in Sweden. He always copies news from here to post in his facebook profile to promote himself, but right now, he tries to remove and blocked anyone who dares to reveal his con activity particular he tries to hide what he has cheated his wife (Sreypov Chea) by having a girlfriend (Sokunthear Sam) behind his wife back. Now, his girlfriend had run way from him after she knew his cheating.

A con man Pang Sokhoeun as well as KI-Media like to insult to the government officers who have affairs, but himself does even worse than other people. What a shame!

When one person had posted in KI-Media and accused that a con man Pang Sokhoeun is a brother of Som Ek (former Chief of Tiger's head sign guerilla, who was arrested and put in prison by Cambodian government) during that time, a cheater Pang Sokhoeun came to deny in his blogs immediately and had pointed the blame to Mr. Sourn Serey Rotha, but this time, he has bury his head in the sand because he cannot deny the truth that he has cheated his wife. Right now, all he can do is removed and blocked anyone who dared to reveal his cheating.

When the dispute in South China sea had boiled up between China and Vietnam, SRP had issued a statement to condemn Vietnam and strongely supported China, but Why Senior Communist Party of China visited in Cambodia, they meet only with Hun Sen, but not with SRP leader? This means China doesn't appreciate to SRP or China thinks that SRP is useless political party?
