The Vietnamese side agreed to upgrade the Ten Nam border gate to the “Ten Nam International Border Gate” on October 18, 2017. The Meun Chey-Ten Nam International Border Gate (Cambodia-Vietnam) was temporarily inaugurated at the provincial level, Prey Veng province, Tay Ninh province, on May 31, 2021.
Samdech Techo Hun Sen expressed his high appreciation to the authorities for their efforts to build this international gate, and through the Meun Chey International Gate, it has made a significant contribution to the exchange of goods between the two countries, especially agricultural products of the people living along the border of the two countries. Samdech Techo also urged the authorities to strive to transform this border area into a safe and peaceful border, a border for the exchange of goods and a border with development and progress for the livelihood of the people of the two countries.
It is worth noting that Prey Veng province plans to hold a meeting to discuss with the authorities of Tay Ninh province about the official inauguration of the Meun Chey-Ten Nam International Border Gate, which will be held by the leaders of the two countries.
