Vietnam, Cambodia open three more border gates

28/09/2009

Cambodia and Vietnam have agreed to open three more border gates in late September and early October to meet the increasing demand for transportation of passengers and goods between the two sides.

The pairs of border gates are in Xa Mat of Vietnam’s Tay Ninh province and Trapeang Phlong of Cambodia’s Kompong Cham province, Tinh Bien of Vietnam’s An Giang province and Phnom Den of Cambodia’s Takeo province, and Ha Tien of Vietnam’s An Giang province and Lork Kam Pot of Cambodia’s Campot province.

With the three new border gates, the two countries will have a total of five border gates for automobiles to pass through under the bilateral agreement on transport signed in 2005.
