Cambodia Optimistic of Complete Physical Presence of Leaders at ASEAN Summits

If all invited leaders can attend the ASEAN Summits and Related Summits physically in Cambodia, which is very positive, it will be the first time of its kind since the outbreak of COVID-19.

H.E. Luy David, Secretary of State at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, has expressed his optimism of the complete physical gathering of the leaders.

The secretary of state who is also the Chairperson of the Secretariat of the National Commission for Organising the ASEAN Summits and Related Summits 2022 shared the high likelihood in an interview with AKP this week.

However, H.E. Luy David said an official announcement of the physical presence of invited leaders to the Summits will be made on a later date.

Cambodia, as the rotating Chair of ASEAN in 2022, has already trained relevant officials at all levels to get well prepared for the reception of top leaders and foreign delegations.

Despite the global and regional challenges, Cambodia is committed to coordinating leaders to sit down together and discuss solutions for the benefit of all the countries, the region as well as the world at large.

The 40th and 41st ASEAN Summits and Related Summits will be held from Nov. 8 to 13, 2022 in Phnom Penh – the capital of Cambodia.
