The Chairman of the Cambodian People's Party (CPP), Chea Sim, has praised the planting of border landmarks between Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos.

Speaking at a ceremony to mark the 31st anniversary of Cambodia’s Victory Day on January 7, the CPP party leader voiced his support for the completion of border landmark planting for the sake of peace and stability in the three nations.

He also criticised antagonist forces for interfering with the planting of border landmarks to serve their own ends without caring about national interests.

Chea Sim said that he backed the CPP party and Cambodian Government’s efforts to deal with the dispute over territory with Thailand through peaceful solutions in order to build a common border line for the sake of friendship, peace, stability and development of both countries.

Regarding the court proceedings against leaders of the Khmer Rouge regime, Chea Sim said the CPP and Cambodian Government strongly criticize the self-serving elements’ intention of using the court to undermine peace, national reconciliation and development in Cambodia.

Earlier on January 6, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said that there would be no tolerance of those forces seeking to disrupt the ceremony to mark Cambodia’s Victory Day (January 7, 1979-January 7, 2010). He asked security forces to arrest those distributing leaflets aimed at undermining the celebration.

PM Hun Sen also reaffirmed the historical significance of Victory Day on January 7 when the Cambodian people successfully overthrew the Khmer Rouge regime.
