Tbong Khmum (FN), Dec. 6 – Cambodian prime minister Hun Sen called on Cambodian people to stand up together to fight against COVID19, speaking at the inauguration ceremony of National Road No. 11 and other roads in Prey Veng on Monday.

The premier’s appeal was made following the insult of a Vietnamese deputy defense minister Hoang Xuan Chien made on 10 March 2020, stating that if Vietnam does not restrict the border, Vietnam will receive a landslide of COVID19 infections from Cambodia.

"Do not let anyone insult a small country like us, therefore we must all work together to prevent the outbreak of the COVID19 disease,” the premier underlined.

"We will save and protect our people from any diseases while improving health sector,” he added.

Samdech added that the Royal Government of Cambodia has been working hard to seek COVID19 vaccines for her people, and that the government is now working with the Chinese counterpart to set up vaccine manufacturing factory in Cambodia.

The premier also called on people to strictly adhere to the health measures.
