PHNOM PENH: Prime Minister Hun Sen has thanked the owner of the Korean company, Booyoung Town, for planning to provide the government with funds to buy 1,000 buses to distribute across all provinces of the country in order to strengthen public transport services and reduce traffic congestion and accidents.

The Prime Minister confirmed that the buses are unique and will be all hydrogen-fueled in the next five years.
