Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On May 31, 2013, Chinese Ambassador to Cambodia Pan Guangxue and Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance and Economy Ji Chun signed an exchange of letters on behalf of the Chinese and Cambodian governments in Phnom Penh, confirming that the Chinese government will present a batch of secure communications equipment to the Cambodian Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of National Defense . On August 19, 2013, the signing ceremony of the 'Certificate of Delivery and Receipt of 4 Units of Container Scanning Machines Under the Economic and Technical Cooperation between The Royal Government of Cambodia and The Government's of the People's Republic of China' was held at Phnom Penh. Chinese Ambassador to Cambodia Bu Jianguo signed to provide the scanners to Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Keat Chhon at the Ministry of Economy and Finance. The four container scanning machines cost a total of 13.8 million U.S. dollars. The port security equipment was already delivered to the Cambodian port of Sihanoukville on July 26, 2013, and mutual inspection has confirmed that they are in good condition. China has provided security scanning equipment to Cambodia multiple times. A donation of one container scanner was given in 2007 (see Record ID#32086), and another donation of three container scanners and other security equipment was given in 2012 (see Record ID#33076).
