PHNOM PENH: The President of the Cambodian People's Party (CPP), Prime Minister Hun Sen, has called on countries around the world to continue increasing international cooperation and solidarity on addressing global environmental challenges in order to save the planet from various disasters.

The Prime Minister made these remarks while addressing the Opening Ceremony of the International Inter-Party Conference on Thursday, 6 October 2022, held under the theme "Ecological Policy and Sustainable Development.”

"As a matter of fact, environmental issues have no boundary, so, for the sake of our people, only international cooperation and solidarity can effectively address global environmental challenges and save our planet from disasters,” he said. “I believe that all of us can do it."

Cambodia continues to strive toward solving the global problem of climate change. The Kingdom has tripled its national budget for activities related to climate change mitigation, as well as set a target to reduce emissions by approximately 42% by 2030.

Prime Minister Hun Sen has also stressed that the international community should not overlook the transfer of technology to developing countries in order to allow them to participate in solving global environmental problems more actively and effectively.

"At the same time, we should also focus on building and integrating human resources, through the sharing of knowledge on addressing environmental issues and study tour programs, to respond to the urgency of global environmental issues,” he said.

However, Prime Minister Hun Sen has also stated that Cambodia is ready and in need of both public and private partners to help the country achieve its commitment to addressing climate change.
