Get-together strengthens Vietnam-Cambodia friendship

Since January 7, 1979, the victory was not Cambodian Victory Day, but it had been a Vietnamese Victory Day. Vietnamese invaded Cambodia in January 7, 1979 to put Cambodia under its Colony. After the invasion, Vietnam had stolen natural resources and valuable heritages in Museum. That was an ashame Victory Day that they are celebrating.

A get-together to mark the 31st anniversary of Cambodian Victory Day (January 7) and the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the Vietnam-Cambodia Friendship Association (VCFA) was held in Ho Chi Minh City on January 5.

Both the president of the VCFA, Truong Kim Nhat and the Royal Consulate General of Cambodia to Ho Chi Minh City, Lun Kimkhuon said that January 7, 1979 is an historic day and a concrete reminder of the traditional friendship between the two nations.

Over the past 30 years, the two countries have continuously strengthened their cooperation in educating the youths through practical activities organised by Vietnam and Cambodia.

On behalf of the Royal Family and the people of Cambodia, Consulate General Lun expressed his deep gratitude for the steadfast support of the Communist Party, the State and people of Vietnam in the Cambodian people’s past struggles to overthrow the Khmer Rouge genocidal regime as well as in their current process of national reconstruction.
