The Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) and the National Council of Solidarity Front for Development of Cambodia (SFDC) have held the fifth international conference on building Vietnam-Cambodia border of peace, friendship, cooperation and development for 2017-2020 in Phnom Penh. 

 
Vice President of the SFDC National Council Men Sam Ol said the two fronts should encourage border localities to establish friendship associations to tighten solidarity and friendship across the fields, particularly in safeguarding border security and order. 
 
President of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee Tran Thanh Man hailed the significance of the conference at a time when the two countries celebrate the 50th anniversary of bilateral diplomatic ties. 
 
He suggested educating people in the two countries, including young generations, about the tradition of special solidarity, comprehensive cooperation and friendship between the two nations, as well as urging border residents to support the policy on economic development with a focus on promoting tourism under the theme “Two countries, one destination”. 
 
The two fronts need to persuade people in border areas to give support to border demarcation efforts as agreed by the two countries’ leaders, he said, adding that he believed the two countries will propel their ties forward despite uncertain developments in the region and the world.-VNA
