Indo-Cambodia Relationship

A few days back, Mr Norodom Sihamony, King few of Cambodia, was on a three days' state visit to our country.

Interestingly, the previous visit of Cabodian Head of State to India was by the present King's father Norodom Sihanouk, in 1963 (at which time I was a 12 years old high school student).

I fondly remember my tenure in Cambodia when I had the pleasure of meeting our Indian ambassador to Cambodia and discussing and initiating possibilities of training Cambodian Education Ministry staff in capacity building in Institutes of Higher Learning and Universities in our country.
