Cambodia’s Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training and China’s Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security agreed to strengthen ties and expand cooperation as they explore renewing their memorandum of understanding on technical and vocational education and training (TVET) in line with labour market needs.
The agreement to explore renewal came at a working meeting on July 28, 2025, at Cambodia’s labour ministry between Labour and Vocational Training Minister Heng Sour and China’s Vice Minister of Human Resources and Social Security Yan Qinghui.
Heng Sour noted progress in relations at all levels and said the two countries had built an all-weather community with a shared future, with cooperation carried out across governments, ministries, institutions, the capital and provinces.
The minister said that to further strengthen bilateral ties and cooperation, Cambodia’s labour ministry and China’s human resources and social security ministry should explore renewing the memorandum on technical and vocational education and training.
“I look forward to continuing to work closely with the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security of the People’s Republic of China to deepen cooperation in labour, social security and, in particular, technical and vocational training,” Heng Sour said.
Yan Qinghui agreed with the Cambodian labour minister’s proposal and said China was willing to explore renewing the memorandum on technical and vocational education and training.
