Description
On January 8th 2013, Cambodia and China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region signed a Memorandum of Understanding on strengthening bilateral communication and cooperation in agriculture. The MoU was signed between Lord Reasmey, secretary general of Cambodia’s Ministry of Agriculture, and Zhang Mingpei, a director general of the Department of Agriculture, under the presence of Cambodian Agriculture Minister Chan Sarun. According to the MoU, both sides are willing to improve and strengthen the communication on improved crop and plant varieties and technology. The MoU is valid for a period of 5 years. Zhang Mingpei on that occasion also donated 43 vegetable pesticide residue quick-detecting instruments in equivalent to 30,000 U.S. dollars to Cambodian Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) (as captured in linked ProjectID#32049).
