In his keynote address at the opening ceremony of the 1st Digital Government Forum held here at the Koh Pich Convention and Exhibition Centre this morning under the theme “Sustainable and Inclusive Development through Digital Policies Implementation,” Samdech Thipadei Hun Manet underlined that the digital revolution is to grasp and maximise the benefits of the development of information and communication technology and digital technology to increase productivity and economic efficiency, as well as promote national economic growth and build a civilised society where the citizens can benefit from the use of digital services that are inclusive, reliable and highly secure, while at the same time preserving their national identity and culture.
According to Samdech Thipadei Hun Manet, Cambodia has set forth and put into action some mechanisms, which constitute a roadmap and a long-term economic vision to shape a vibrant digital society, to embrace the digital revolution in all sectors of society – the citizens, the state and the business community, to drive new economic growth and improve social welfare.
