HCM CITY— Signs in both Vietnamese and Khmer can be seen at shops at the Tản Đà - Mạc Thiên Tích street corner behind HCM City Medical University Hospital in District 5.

Residents can communicate in Khmer with their customers, most of whom are Cambodians visiting the city for medical exams and treatments at the hospital.

Dozens of transport companies in the neighborhood operate daily bus trips between Cambodia and HCM City.  These bus trips are connecting HCM City with Phnom Penh, Siem Riep and Sihanouk Ville in Cambodia. — VNS
