Chinese nuclear pact in the works

[geovalin]

Cambodia and China are close to inking an agreement that would bring the Kingdom another step closer to developing its own nuclear technology, officials said yesterday, although it would not be used initially to bolster its electricity production.

 

Ministry of Environment Deputy Director-General Tin Ponlok said the two countries are now in the technical stages of finalising a memorandum of understanding (MoU) under which China would provide expertise, research and scholarships to help Cambodia develop nuclear energy for “peaceful purposes”.

 

The partnership won’t focus on electricity production, “although the option is there for the future”, Ponlok said.

Thailand?

"China would provide expertise, research and scholarships to help Cambodia develop nuclear energy for “peaceful purposes”.

In fact Thailand has a nuclear reactor for research and medical purposes. Installed and brought to its initial criticality in October 1962. But in March 2017 China and Thailand signed an agreement wherein China will provide Thailand with  the most advanced, most economical and safest nuclear power technology, as well as equipment, management experience and quality service. http://www.world-nuclear-news.org/NP-China-Thailand-agree-to-nuclear-energy-cooperation-0504174.html
