On Sunday, a landing ship of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy held a drill over coordinated navigation with Cambodian vessels in anticipation of the Golden Dragon-2023 exercise, the report said. Golden Dragon is a format of joint military exercises between China and Cambodia, which was launched in 2016 to strengthen defense ties between the two countries. During the previous drills, servicemen from China and Cambodia practice actions for various situations, including emergency road repairs and construction, natural disaster medical treatment, landmine detection and destruction. This year exercise will be the first after a three-year hiatus caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
