Prime Minister Hun Sen on June 20 commemorated the 45th anniversary of his “resistance journey” to Vietnam in 1977, at the military historical site of Techo Koh Thmor X-16 in Tonloung commune’s Koh Thmor village of Tbong Khmum province’s Memot district. The premier’s move on June 20, 1977 marked the first steps in a long journey to liberate the nation from the Khmer Rouge.

The government has allocated 11.76sq km of a former battle zone in eastern Tbong Khmum province near the Vietnamese border for a special economic zone (SEZ), in a bid to stimulate development in the area and trade with Vietnam, according to Prime Minister Hun Sen.
