Welcoming them at Pochentong International Airport were Second Vice President of the Cambodian National Assembly Vong Soth, and Vietnamese Ambassador to Cambodia Nguyen Huy Tang, among others.
The visit, Man’s first official visit to Cambodia as head of the Vietnamese legislature, holds significant importance, reaffirming the foreign policy set forth by the 13th National Party Congress, which gives high priority to the "good neighbourliness, traditional friendship, comprehensive cooperation, and long-term sustainability" with Cambodia.
It demonstrates the mutual trust and close bond between high-ranking leaders of the two nations, including between the NA Chairman and Cambodia's top leaders.
During the visit, the Vietnamese top legislator is scheduled to pay a courtesy call to King Norodom Sihamoni; hold talks with National Assembly President Khuon Sudary; pay a courtesy call to President of the Cambodian People's Party and President of the Senate Hun Sen; meet with Prime Minister Hun Manet; visit former NA President Heng Samrin; receive President of the Cambodia-Vietnam Friendship Association and the Cambodia-Vietnam Friendship Parliamentarians' Group Men Sam An; and attend the inauguration ceremony of the Cambodian NA’s administrative building - a gift from the Party, State and people of Vietnam.
The visit aims to take Vietnam-Cambodia relations into a new phase of development, strengthen strategic trust and promote cooperation between the two legislatures.
With regard to ICAPP 12, the NA leader’s attendance at the event reflects the Vietnamese Party’s commitment to active and constructive engagement in ICAPP, aiming to strengthen ties with political parties across Asia, contribute to addressing regional issues, and enhance relations with the Cambodian People's Party.
Meanwhile, his attendance at IPTP 11 as a guest of the host country demonstrates Vietnam's support and goodwill toward Cambodia, particularly during its tenure as IPTP Chair.
