Tanzania turns to Cambodia for development advice
A delegation from the East African nation of Tanzania visited Cambodia to
discuss development in areas that included tourism and agriculture and also
pledged to promote Cambodia's bid for UN Security Council membership, local
media reported Thursday.
The Khmer-language Rasmei Kampuchea newspaper said a delegation led by Omar
Ramadhan Mapuri, who has served as Tanzania's ambassador to China since 2006,
met with a range of government representatives and also discussed strategies
for mining and eco-tourism.
It quoted Foreign Ministry Secretary of State Ouch Borin as saying Mapuri also
pledged to lobby his government to support Cambodia's bid to become a temporary
member of the UN Security Council in 2013.
Election to the UN's highest decision-making body has been a long-held ambition
of the Cambodian government.
Mapuri promised a second Tanzanian delegation would visit Cambodia in the near
future, the paper said.
