H.E. Pen Bona, Minister Delegate to the Prime Minister and Chairman of the Spokesperson Unit of the Royal Government of Cambodia, emphasized that nothing surpasses the facts and good deeds that the Royal Government of the Cambodian People’s Party has been doing for the nation and the people of Cambodia. He said the Royal Government’s achievements are countless, so it is crucial to showcase these accomplishments to the public and mainstream them with the national policy, not to allow fabricated information to exaggerate and slander the work of the Royal Government.
For H.E. Pen Bona, the leaders of the Royal Government, particularly Samdech Techo Hun Sen, have made tremendous sacrifices and worked overwhelmingly and tirelessly to build the country as it stands today. Similarly, Samdech Prime Minister Hun Manet, his successor, bears the heavy responsibility of maintaining peace, political stability, and driving the country’s development to achieve the ambitious the Cambodia’s Vision 2050, aiming to become a high-income nation. Therefore, we need to share the burden of our leaders, especially proactive work in the fields of information and spokesperson.
His remarks were made at the opening ceremony of the training course on “The Effectiveness of Information and Spokesperson Affaires” for Information Officers and Spokespersons of Kampong Cham Provincial Administration on the morning of June 27, 2024.

On behalf of H.E. Un Chanda, Governor of the Provincial Board of Governors, H.E. Srey Sopheak warmly welcomed the Delegate Minister, praying for his presence and led this training session on the critical topic of “The Effectiveness of Information and Spokesperson Affaires”.

Srey Sopheak noted that the information officer and spokespersons working group of Kampong Cham province, under the guidance of H.E. Governor, worked actively to provide accurate information to the public.
