民國60年11月5日「高棉華僑祝壽團」所贈，以灰褐色盒子放置，盒內以深藍色緞面為襯，盒內黏貼粉紅色紙條，上寫「恭祝蔣中正總統八十晉五華誕」落款為「高棉華僑祝壽團敬賀」，盒外貼有「紀457 留府自用」字條，說明此物件為禮品中被留府自用的，這類情況並不多見。
高棉即今柬埔寨，柬埔寨共和國位於中南半島的南部，與越南、寮國、泰國等國家接壤，人口1000多萬，有20多個民族，其中高棉民族佔90%，高棉語為官方語言。當地華人約有30多萬華人，二次世界大戰後終獲獨立的柬埔寨，迭遭赤棉恐怖統治，內戰不斷的浩劫，直到赤棉首領波布1988年4月15日死亡政局才日趨穩定。正因為歷史的相同，使當時的高棉華僑更加心懷中華民國的反共政府，每年10月均有大批高棉華僑來台參加慶典活動。

This silver tea set consists of three pieces, including a pot and two cups. The pot has an elegant body sided by a tubular spout and a detachable lid, and they are inlaid with disc floret patterns. A raised base has the same decorative patterns as the pot. The lid is in the shape of a four-storied pagoda, and each level is rotatable. A tab inscribed "For Keeping Birthday" is affixed to the inside of the lid.
Birthday Keeping Party of Overseas Chinese from Khmer presented this silver tea set on November 5, 1971. The tea set is set in a gray-brown box lined with dark blue satin. A pink slip pasted in the box is inscribed with the words "In celebration of President Chiang's 85th birthday," and on the lower part, "Respectfully, Birthday Keeping Party of Overseas Chinese from Khmer." A brief note labeled outside the box read: "Ji 457. Keep this item in the residence for private use," indicating that this gift was kept in the President Residence for private use. Such a case was rare.

Khmer is known as Cambodia today. Cambodia is located in the south of Indochina and bordered by Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and other countries. It has more than 20 nationalities, a population of over 10 million, of which the Khmer account for 90%, and Khmer is the official language. More than 300,000 Chinese live in Cambodia. Cambodia finally got independence after the World War II. However, it was repeatedly under Khmer Rouge's reign of terror and the catastrophe of ongoing civil war. The country's political situation became stable after the death of Pol Pot, the leader of Khmer Rouge, on April 15, 1988 Because of similar history, overseas Chinese in Cambodia at that time cherished the ROC's anti-communist government; therefore, in October each year, a large number of overseas Chinese from Cambodia came to Taiwan to attend the celebratory activities.
