Vietnam and Cambodia speed up border marker planting

Nhan Dan

Vietnam and Cambodia have agreed to complete the planting of markers along their common border by the end of 2012.

The agreement was reached during a two-day meeting between the chairmen of the Vietnam-Cambodia Joint Committee on Border Demarcation and Marker Planting and the Head of the Cambodia-Vietnam Joint Committee on Border Demarcation and Marker Planting.

The Vietnamese delegation was led by Ho Xuan Son, Deputy Foreign Minister and Chairman of the National Border Committee and the Cambodian delegation was headed by Var Kim Hong, Senior Minister in charge of border affairs.

At the meeting, which concluded in the Cambodian capital city of Phnom Penh on June 8, the two sides reviewed the progress on marker planting over the past time while comparing notes on measures to speed up the mission.

They reached an agreement to organise a meeting on maker planting in the Mekong Delta city of Can Tho in mid July and another meeting of a mapping group in Phnom Penh in late June 2010.

They also agreed to early set up a set of maps of border terrain between the two countries through an international bidding and to organise the next meeting in Vietnam in September. (VNA)

Binh Dinh launched new Vietnam-Cambodia border marker
The launch ceremony for the Vietnam-Cambodia border marker No. 241 was jointly held on June 9 by the An Giang Provincial People’s Committee and Cambodian authorities from Kandal province.

The border marker, located at the Tien River International Border Gate in the southern province of An Giang, is the starting point of the border line between An Giang and Kandal.

After one year of construction, border marker No. 241 has been completed, covering an area of 3,600m2. It was made from an entire granite stone to a design approved by both governments.

Both the Tien River and Kaomsamno International Border Gates are the most dynamic and developed among the two countries’ border gates. Their export revenue accounts for 65 percent of the total Vietnamese export earnings from all of the two countries’ border gates.
