"Overall, Cambodia is between 70-80% ready with its preparations, with only 20-30% [of preparations] remaining, so that the event is well-organized and that hospitality services and accommodation are efficiently provided," he said.

He added that all national sports federations are working hard to organize their respective competitions with their international sports federations and have issued clear rules for all sports.
