Vietnam
and Cambodia have pledged to deepen cooperation in joint sea patrol to
solve maritime disputes as well as foster their friendship.
The
announcement was made on Wednesday by the two sides in a conference on
joint marine patrol, which was organized by the 5th Regional Command
under the Vietnam People’s Navy and a delegation from the Royal
Cambodian Navy, in the southern province of Kien Giang.
The
conference was meant to review ten years of implementing their joint
patrol regulations and establishing information channels between the two
countries.
The
event was also an opportunity for the two nations to exchange
information on security of territorial waters, to evaluate the results
of their previous joint patrols as well as to set up new goals for the
future.
Vietnam
and Cambodia have effectively planned and carried out 40 joint patrols
which helped ensure security in the region and solve emerging disputes,
especially between fishermen, including fishing ground competition and
sovereignty violation, according to reports presented at the conference.
The
two countries will support each other in terms of cooperation and
consultation to strengthen diplomatic ties, and will thus better cope
with any maritime problems, said Rear Admiral Doan Van So, Commander of
the 5th Regional Command.
Vietnam and Cambodia will also work together to carry out search and rescue activities in the waters of both nations, he added.
