PM Hopes No One Left Behind Due to Negligence


Samdech Moha Borvor Thipadei Hun Manet, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cambodia, called on here this morning relevant state institutions to work together to ensure that no one is left behind due to negligence.

Addressing the opening ceremony of “the Cambodia Social Protection Week 2025” and the official launch of the “National Social Protection Policy Framework 2024-2035”, held at Sokha Phnom Penh Hotel & Residence under the theme “Developing Social Protection in Cambodia for Better Coverage through Lifecycle Risks,” Samdech Thipadei Hun Manet advised the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, Ministry of Economy and Finance, Ministry of Planning and Ministry of Interior to pay attention to this matter and commit to achieve the national development goal.

“The value of social protection programmes is not based on data and the amount of money we spent. The real value is the feedback of the citizens who are the real beneficiaries,” he underlined.

Samdech Thipadei Hun Manet encouraged all relevant state institutions to think about the quality of services, especially the frontline services, the code of ethics, and the non-discrimination principle.

The National Social Protection Council was instructed to regularly monitor the progress in the implementation of national social assistance programmes and social security schemes, and challenges to take into account and implement necessary related policies in a timely manner.
