On January 8, 2026, the Chinese government provided a second round of humanitarian assistance for Cambodian people displaced along the border, valued at RMB20 million, reported as equivalent to US$2.8 million. The first round of humanitarian aid had successfully arrived in Cambodia on December 28, 2025.
The report noted that since the border conflict began, China had been the first country to provide assistance and the largest provider of aid to Cambodia, describing this as evidence of the two countries’ deep and enduring ironclad friendship. By: Chinta Titi
