AKP Phnom Penh, April 28, 2026 —

Cambodia’s Ministry of National Defence has arranged another observation visit for members of the Military Attachés Corps in Phnom Penh (MACPP), taking them to Stung Meteuk Bridge in Pursat province to review the situation on the ground.

According to H.E. Lt. Gen. Maly Socheata, Spokeswoman for the Ministry of National Defence, the visit took place on Tuesday, April 28, at 2:30 p.m. as part of the second annual tour of 2026.

The Ministry said the purpose of the visit was to allow foreign military representatives to observe and verify conditions at the bridge site.

The Royal Government of Cambodia and the Ministry of National Defence reaffirmed their commitment to resolving all border issues peacefully in accordance with international law and relevant bilateral agreements.

They also said Cambodia remains committed to fully observing the Joint Statement of the Third Special Meeting of the General Border Committee (GBC) held on Dec. 27, 2025.
