POL Pot visits Cambodia’s East Zone and holds a public meeting at Wat Taung, where he outlines the Khmer Rouge policy that every Cambodian should kill at least 30 Vietnamese.
Vietnam begins an orderly withdrawal from

better prevent future Cambodian attacks. Vietnam
repeats its call for negotiations with Cambodia.
