Vietnamese-funded highway open to traffic in Cambodia

Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister Truong Vinh Trong and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen attended an inauguration ceremony of National Highway 78 in Banlung city, Rattanakirri province on March 18.

PM Hun Sen appreciated Vietnam’s financial assistance to the project, which he described as a new symbol of the friendship and cooperation between the two countries.

He said the project will help Cambodia’s north-eastern border provinces develop on a par with border provinces of Vietnam and Laos within their Development Triangle.

He also thanked Vietnam for providing heart-felt support and great assistance to Cambodia in driving away the Pol Pot genocidal regime and rebuilding the country.

The four-lane highway, which is 70km long linking Banlung city and Vietnam’s Le Thanh border gate, was built at a total cost of US$25.8 million in preferential credits from the Vietnamese government.
