4-star General Kun Kim, the RCAF commander and the chairman of Hun Sen’s advisors, just received a military science PhD certificate from the Dalat Army Institute in Vietnam. An army officer indicated that Kun Kim is the first high-ranking Cambodian army officer to receive the military science PhD certificate since the 70s. Kun Kim used to study in Dalat, Vietnam, between 2001 and 2004, where he received a bachelor degree in military science, and he later pursued his study and wrote his (PhD) thesis between 2004 to 2007, before receiving his PhD in military science. The Rasmei Kampuchea reported that Kun Kim received his PhD in Vietnam on 17 September.
