PHNOM PENH: Prime Minister Hun Sen has welcomed the Director-General of the Universal Peace Federation, Yung Yong Hour, to the Peace Palace. The meeting came ahead of next month’s World Peace Summit, hosted by the UPF, which the Prime Minister will co-chair.

It was a morning full of praise at the Peace Palace, with Prime Minister Hun Sen warmly welcoming the Director-General of the Universal Peace Federation, Yung Yong Hour. The Prime Minister awarded his visitor with Cambodia’s Solidarity Medal, putting the award around Yong Hour’s shoulder himself. He thanked the Universal Peace Federation for inviting him to co-chair next month’s Summit on Peace, which will be held in South Korea.
