The deal was inked by Buth Bovuth, chief of the Cambodian Information Ministry's General Department of Information and Broadcasting, and Wu Jingbo, deputy chief of the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China's Yunnan Provincial Committee, with the presence of Cambodian Information Minister Khieu Kanharith and Ge Guangzhi, deputy director of Department No. 6 of the Information Office of China's State Council.

"Under the deal, the two sides will further promote cooperation in media and broadcasting between Cambodia and China," Khieu told reporters after the signing ceremony. "Information cooperation between Cambodia and China's Yunnan province will contribute further to enhancing Sino-Cambodian relations."

The two sides would also exchange mutual visits in order to enhance cooperation between their media organizations, he added.

Meanwhile, the minister also expressed thanks to China for helping train Cambodian information officials.

"So far, we have sent a lot of Cambodian officials to study in the fields of information and broadcasting in China," he said. " And we will send more to study in the majors of digital television and electronic engineering."

Ge said China would continue assisting Cambodia in informatization, stressing that the sector played a vital role in further boosting bilateral ties.
