Cambodian leaders expressed satisfactions over the country's good
relations with China over the past 55 years in their letters to Chinese
leaders on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of Cambodia-China
diplomatic ties.
The ties between the two countries, cherished and nurtured by Cambodia's late King Father Norodom Sihanouk and the eminent Chinese leaders in 1958, have been profoundly strengthened and developed day by day, Cambodian King Norodom Sihamoni said in a royal message to Chinese President Xi Jinping, which was released to the media on Thursday.
"It is quite satisfying to observe that our two nations have made significant progress in our joint endeavors to greatly promote cooperation in all fields," Sihamoni said.
"Most importantly, the relations of our two countries have been upgraded to the level of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership of Cooperation," he added.
He said he was very pleased to see the frequent exchanges of high-level visits at all levels between the two nations, in particular, the state visits of former Chinese President Hu Jintao to Cambodia in 2012 and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen to China in 2013.
"The visits have been the excellent boost to our traditional friendship and cooperation, bringing mutual benefits to both of our two nations," the king said.
