PHNOM PENH, May 8 (Xinhua) -- Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Hor Namhong (pictured) on Thursday returned home fine and healthy, after a two-week visit to France and U.S., national media said on Friday.
"His health is pretty much strong," Koy Kuong, spokesman of the ministry, was quoted by Chinese-language newspaper the Jian Hua Daily as saying.
Hor Namhong stayed in France to process the relevant matters of Prime Minister Hun Sen's upcoming visit there, said a statement issued by the ministry last week.
Earlier in Lowell, Massachusetts state of the United States, the 73-year-old minister suddenly had dizziness while giving a speech for the launch of an honorary consulate of Cambodia.
He was then hospitalized there, but quickly recuperated, according to local reports.

This is the bad news that ah Hor 5 Hong can laught in Phnom Pen!!!but we hope that he will be soon with ah Hok Londy.
5:40 am,You make me laugh. Hor Nam Hong is 73 years old. It's time for him to retire to make way for a younger minister like Kor Kim Hourn who got a Ph.D from America. A foreign minister must be fluent in English and/or French. Hor Nam Hong speaks broken English and broken French.
hey stupid, don't kill our leaders.it is not like he working cambodia down. he actually did more goods than bad for us. but i do agree that he need to get someone that are more energetic and big dreams and he is a bit old.
