BEIJING, Feb. 4 (Xinhua) -- Chinese State Councilor Tang Jiaxuan visited former Cambodian King Norodom Sihanouk on Monday, before the upcoming Chinese lunar new year.

Tang conveyed the new year greetings from Chinese President Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao, and praised Sihanouk's historic contributions to promoting China-Cambodia friendship.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of bilateral diplomatic relations and is a Year of China-Cambodia Friendship. China was ready to work with Cambodia to grasp this opportunity to advance the all-round cooperative partnership, and to pass on the traditional friendship from generation to generation," Tang said.

Sihanouk said Cambodia would as always hold friendly policies to China and adhere to one-China policy, and would make efforts to cement and promote the traditional good-neighborly friendship with China.

Sihanouk has made donations to China for disasters relief in snow stricken areas, and Tang expressed thanks for it.

Sihanouk told Tang he believed the Chinese people would definitely win the fight against the heavy snow.
