Japan has pledged to grant more than 908,000 USD to help Cambodia carry out projects on healcare, agriculture and mine clearance, said Cambodian news agency (KPL).
An agreement to this effect was signed on December 11 in Cambodia’s capital city of Phnom Penh by Japanese Ambassador to Cambodia Katsuhiro Shinohara and representatives of the five recipient local authorities and non-governmental organisations.
The aid will be used for the restoration of irrigation systems in Kandal and Takeo provinces, the construction of a scientific laboratory in Prey Veng province, mine-clearance in Pailin city and Battambang province, and the construction of emergency aid’s building in a referential hospital of Kratie province./.
