Military forces from Indonesia, Malaysia, Mongolia and the United States are in Cambodia for a multinational peacekeeping exercise. The training will focus on command structures, rescue missions and engineering projects such as the construction of hospitals and schools. After the training, the Cambodian forces are expected to rotate through U.N. peacekeeping missions in Sudan, Lebanon, Chad and Central Africa. The exercise is an important way to increase the cooperation between U.S. and Cambodian military forces.
