BEIJING -- Premier Li Qiang held talks with Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet, who is in China to attend the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference and pay a working visit, in Beijing on Thursday.
Noting that China and Cambodia are good partners for common development and share an unbreakable ironclad friendship, Li said China is willing to work with Cambodia to further advance the in-depth and tangible progress in the "Diamond Hexagon" cooperation framework, the development of the Industrial Development Corridor and the Fish and Rice Corridor, ensure the successful delivery of major infrastructure projects, and continue to expand the scale of bilateral trade.
China supports more competent Chinese enterprises to invest in Cambodia, and will deepen cooperation in emerging sectors including new energy, artificial intelligence, digital economy and advanced manufacturing, to jointly foster and strengthen new growth drivers for development, he added.
