In 2024, the two sides have regularly exchanged information on cooperation in maintaining border security and order, as well as the operations of terrorist organisations.
They have proactively grasped the border situation to ensure effective coordination in preventing and combating all types of crimes, while organising coincidental border patrols. In addition, they have exchanged visits on holidays, New Year, and each other's traditional days to enhance mutual understanding and trust.
🌠 Priorities in bilateral cooperation include strengthening communications and education among border residents, encouraging them to seriously follow treaties and protocols on land border demarcation and marker planting signed between the two Governments, and raising their awareness of crime prevention and control as well as the management of border markers, thus contributing to maintaining border security and order./.
