Yim Ratha, director of international affairs at Cambodia's Asia Euro University, recently led 20 students on a week-long visit to Wenzhou University of Technology.

During their stay, the first China-Cambodia Student Entrepreneurship Training Camp was held.

The camp included diverse activities such as entrepreneurship education, digital textbooks and Chinese language classes. Students also engaged in market surveys and cultural experiences, providing a comprehensive learning experience.

"Although the week was short, I gained a wealth of entrepreneurial knowledge and experience. I was deeply impressed by China's rich traditional culture and Wenzhou's unique spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship," said Sok Tola, a student from Asia Euro University, at the closing ceremony. "I am eager to share what I learned and experienced with my friends in Cambodia."

Sun Furong, vice-president of Wenzhou University of Technology, highlighted the importance of Lancang-Mekong Cooperation in fostering regional mutual benefits and understanding. The university is committed to promoting educational cooperation among Lancang-Mekong countries, particularly through initiatives like this camp. She hopes the exchange will deepen cooperation and contribute to the development of young talent in the region.

As the number of opportunities brought about by China-Cambodia relations grows, Wenzhou University of Technology will continue to strengthen exchanges and collaborations with Asia Euro University and other universities in the Lancang-Mekong region. It aims to promote regional development and contribute to the enduring friendship between China and Cambodia.
