The 120-member delegation, consisting of officers and soldiers, entered Vietnam by land through the Moc Bai International Border Gate in Tay Ninh Province. They were welcomed with a formal ceremony hosted by the provincial military command.
At the event, Ha Thanh Tuan, Deputy Commander of the Tay Ninh Provincial Military Command, said the participation of Cambodian forces was not only a military exchange but also a vivid symbol of the solidarity and comprehensive cooperation between the Vietnam People’s Army and the Cambodian Royal Army.
Following the ceremony, the Cambodian delegation traveled to Ho Chi Minh City before flying to Hanoi to join training sessions and prepare for the upcoming parade.
The parade celebrating the 80th anniversary of Vietnam’s National Day will take place at 6:30am on September 2. Ahead of the main event, combined rehearsals will be held at 8pm on August 21 and 24, followed by a state-level preliminary rehearsal at 8pm on August 27 and a full state-level rehearsal at 6:30am on August 30.
