Cambodia received new batches of Chinese COVID-19 vaccines on Saturday as the COVID-19 case total in the Southeast Asian nation neared the 60,000 mark.

Health ministry's secretary of state Yok Sambath said the new arrivals included Sinovac and Sinopharm jabs.

She said the kingdom has so far acquired more than 16 million doses of vaccines from China and the World Health Organization's COVAX Facility.
