Wang Jiarui, chief of the International Department of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, met with a Cambodian delegation on Tuesday and pledged to boost exchanges and cooperation with Cambodia's co-ruling Funcinpec Party.

"The CPC is willing to step up friendly exchanges and pragmatic cooperation with the Funcinpec Party to improve the comprehensive strategic partnership of cooperation between China and Cambodia," Wang said as he met with the delegation headed by Nhiek Bun Chhay, deputy prime minister of the Royal Government of Cambodia and secretary general of the Funcinpec Party.

During their talks, Wang also briefed the guests on the experience of the CPC over the past decades. The Party is celebrating the 90th anniversary of its founding on July 1.

Nhiek Bun Chhay hailed the great achievements the CPC has made in governance and building the Party itself, and he vowed to advance the ties between the two political parties as well as the two countries.
