geovalin Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 The government will build five more Win-Win monuments in the Kingdom in addition to the one in Phnom Penh to honour the sacrifices made by Prime Minister Hun Sen and others to end the decades-long civil war with the Khmer Rouge movement. General Nem Sowath, director-general of the Defence Ministry’s general department of policy and foreign affairs, said yesterday they will be built in former Khmer Rouge strongholds in Oddar Meanchey, Kampong Speu, Pailin, Banteay Meanchey and Kampot provinces. He said the tributes will serve as a reminder to the people of the win-win policy which brokered an end to the bitter conflict and ushered in peace to the Kingdom. Gen Sowath said the monuments would be built in Oddar Meanchey province’s Anlong Veng district, Kampong Speu’s Aural district, Pailin province, Bantheay Meanchey’s Malai district and the Taken Koh Sla area which was a former Khmer Rouge stronghold in Kampot’s Chhouk district. read more https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50686847/government-to-build-win-win-monuments-in-five-provinces 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
