A special plane carrying the first batch of China-donated Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccines arrived in Cambodia on Sunday, which was welcomed by Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen at the capital's airport.

The event was live broadcast on the prime minister's official Facebook page, the state-run National Television of Cambodia (TVK), Fresh News, the kingdom's online news provider, and several other TV channels.

The vaccine arrival marks another historic milestone in the China-Cambodia relations in a joint fight against COVID-19, and it rekindles hope for a return to normal life and a swift economic recovery in Cambodia.
