Hun Manet asked Liu to convey his sincere greetings to General Secretary Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang. He said, the victory of the Cambodian People's Party (CPP) in Cambodia's 7th general election reflects the Cambodian people's high recognition of the CPP's governance and their expectations for the new government. Political parties are the source of the country's formulation of domestic and foreign policies. The new government will continue to firmly adhere to the CPP's friendly policies towards China and make the relationship between Cambodia and China even better. I will choose China as my first official outbound visit after taking office as Prime Minister. The Cambodian side is willing to implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries, promote the construction of the "diamond hexagon" cooperation framework, effectively promote the construction of the "Industrial Development Corridor" and the "Fish and Rice Corridor", and promote the construction of a Cambodia-China community of shared future in the new era. As the head of the CPP's Youth Wing, I will support the good use of the Youth House for Cambodia-China Friendship, and efforts to strengthen friendly exchanges between the youth of the two Parties. Taiwan, Xinjiang and Hong Kong affairs are all China's internal affairs. The Cambodian side will continue to firmly adhere to the One-China principle, firmly supports and actively participates in the Belt and Road Initiative and the three major global initiatives proposed by the Chinese side, and is willing to strengthen coordination and cooperation with the Chinese side in international and regional affairs to jointly maintain regional peace, stability, development and prosperity.

Liu conveyed warm greetings and best wishes from General Secretary Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang to Hun Manet. He said, the Chinese side is sincerely happy for the Cambodian government's smooth transition and firmly supports the CPP's long-term and stable governance. The victory of the CPP in the general election is a victory for the Cambodian people and a victory for Cambodia's development path. It reflects the Cambodian people's firm support for the CPP and their firm confidence in the country's future development. The Chinese side looks forward to Prime Minister Hun Manet's official visit to China. Attaching great importance to the building of a China-Cambodia community of shared future, the Chinese side is willing to support the new Cambodian government in various ways and make unremitting efforts for the development of China-Cambodia relations.

Liu said, the CPC is willing to carry forward the fine tradition of firm mutual support, and is ready to work together with the CPP to play a political leading role to achieve development, prosperity, and long-term peace and stability in respective countries. The CPC is willing to fully serve and ensure high-level strategic communication between the two sides through inter-party channels, fully support the new Cambodian government’s administration, and fully promote practical cooperation between China and Cambodia. As the Youth House for Cambodia-China Friendship is a youth exchange project that the leaders of the two countries attach great importance to, the Chinese side is willing to work with the Cambodian side to run the Youth House well.
