Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao has pledged to work along with Cambodia in tackling the international financial crisis and provide affordable assistance to the Southeast Asian country.

China and Cambodia are partners of comprehensive cooperation and have supported each other in bilateral and multilateral fields, Wen told his Cambodian counterpart Hun Sen Friday in a meeting following the opening ceremony of an international trade fair in the capital of southwest China's Sichuan Province.

Confronted with the global financial crisis, China will spare no effort in its cooperation with Cambodia and will jointly overcome the difficulties, Wen said, pledging to boost bilateral trade and implement infrastructure construction projects funded by China in Cambodia.

Hun Sen appreciated China's assistance, saying it has brought about benefits for numerous Cambodians and asked China to continue participation in the country's economic progress.

The Cambodian government and its people cherish their friendship and cooperation with China, he said, vowing to enhance cultural, social and youth exchanges with China.
