After signing the agreement with the visiting Marty Natalegawa, Indonesian foreign minister, Hor Namhong, Cambodia’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation said the visa exemption will pave the way for larger flow of tourists from Indonesia to Cambodia while Cambodian people will be able to make faster access to Indonesia.

Marty Natalegawa will also be granted a royal audience by King Norodom Sihamoni.
Hor Namhong said his country will look forward to signing more agreements on visa exemptions with all countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) as well as in the Asian region and in Europe.
