The statement was made by Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Le Khanh Hai at the opening of Vietnam Culture Week in Cambodia in Phnom Penh on August 31.
In his speech, Hai said the event is of great significance for fulfilling the two nations’ cooperative relations, particularly in culture and arts.
“The event serves to deepen traditional relations and honour those generations of Vietnamese and Cambodians who sacrificed in the struggle for national liberation,” he said.
Cambodia Minister of Culture and Fine Arts Phoeurng Sakana in turn affirmed that friendship and cooperation is a treasure of immeasurable value between the two peoples, which was immensely important in repelling foreign invaders and the Pol Pot regime.
During the event, Vietnamese artists are entertaining Cambodian and international friends with traditional art performances in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap from August 31 to September 5.
A photo exhibition is also being staged at the Royal University of Fine Arts, at which audiences can relax and enjoy picturesque images of Vietnamese landscapes and natural heritages.
