PHNOM PENH, Nov. 2 (Xinhua): Dressed neatly in a Cambodia's public school uniform, white shirt and blue skirt, Chhin Putheara Vatey, a sixth-grade student at a primary school here, said that she was delighted to return to school after an eight-month hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Like other students, Vatey has been fully vaccinated with China's Sinovac Covid-19 vaccine before going back to school and she is pretty confident in the efficacy of the vaccine in protecting her from the disease.
