Cambodia–India relations refers to the bilateral ties between the Cambodia and the India. Cambodia has an embassy in New Delhi, and India has an embassy in Phnom Penh. Relations between Cambodia and India goes back to ancient times. India's influence in Cambodia is visible from the Hindu-style temples of Angkor Wat to written Khmer, which is a derivative of Sanskrit and Pali script from South India. Both nations are part of the Non-Aligned Movement.〔http://www.nam.gov.za/background/members.htm〕 India established formal diplomatic relations with the Heng Samrin regime and opened its Embassy in Phnom Penh in 1981 when Cambodia was internationally isolated. India had provided various personnel the conduct of the UNTAC-sponsored elections in Cambodia in 1993. The Government of India agreed to preserve Angkor Wat temple when the Government of Cambodia appealed, between 1986 and 1993 and spent around 4 million dollars during this conservation.〔http://mea.gov.in/mystart.php?id=50042447〕 While Cambodia has historically aligned itself more with the People's Republic of China, India's greatest geopolitical rival, Theravāda Buddhism is the official religion of Cambodia, practiced by around 95% of the Cambodian population, and its intrinsic Indian culture has considerably impacted Cambodian society and culture. == Indian Diaspora in Cambodia== The first Indians in modern times to settle in Cambodia arrived in the 1960s and 1970s. Primarily coming from the northern province of Punjab, they worked as jewellers, moneylenders and traders around Central Market, but they left the country once the Khmer Rouge arrived. The Indians returned to Cambodia when Pol Pot’s regime collapsed. There is an Indian diaspora in Cambodia and they have established an Indian Association, Cambodia.〔http://www.iac- cambodia.org/cam_ind_relations.php〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cambodia–India relations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
