Marcos will hold a bilateral meeting with Samdech Moha Borvor Thipadei Hun Manet, Prime Minister of Cambodia, "to discuss expanding cooperation in combating transnational crimes and enhancing connectivity as well as in the key sectors of agriculture, higher education, tourism, and cultural cooperation between the two countries," the PCO said.
