In 1955, bilateral diplomatic relations was established. We are very happy to
see friendship between the two countries and mutual cooperation developing
gradually. Myanmar and Cambodia are similar in historical background, Asian
Values and temperament. Besides, the two countries are undertaking the task of
achieving regional and global peace, as well as the harmony with each other.
Both of our countries are working hand in hand with each other in making
concerted efforts for building a better and strengthened ASEAN community.
Meanwhile, friendship has been found to be stronger than ever. Exchange of
State Visits is remarkably helpful to the development of friendship and
cooperation between the two countries. Very recently, President U Htin Kyaw,
made an official state visit to Cambodia, bringing about creation of new
opportunities in the sphere of cooperation between the two countries.”
