4:52:12 PM | 3/16/2012

Vietnamese Deputy Foreign Minister Ho Xuan Son and Cambodian Senior Minister Var Kimhong have reviewed the implementation of an MoU on land border area adjustment signed between the two governments last April.
At their meeting in Phnom Penh from March 12-14, the two sides agreed to complete border demarcation and marker placement prior to the end of June this year.
The two sides are scheduled to organize a State-level ceremony to inaugurate border marker No. 314, the final marker on the Vietnam-Cambodia land border, in June this year, on the occasion of the 4th anniversary of diplomatic ties.
They agreed that although most of the land border demarcation activities have been completed, the two sides need to further increase bilateral cooperation and make more efforts to fulfill the task and build up a file of Vietnam-Cambodia border legal documents.
The documents include a protocol on border demarcation and marker placement, an agreement on border management regulations, an agreement on border gates and border gate management and a Vietnam-Cambodia border atlas.
