Participation in Technical Workshop to Revise the National Smart City Roadmap

On July 4 and July 5, 2024, a two-day workshop for the revision of the National Smart City Roadmap was held in Siem Reap, organized by the Cambodian Ministry of Interior. Approximately 30 representatives from Siem Reap Province, Phnom Penh Capital City, Battambang Province, and Sihanoukville Province attended the event.

During the workshop, specific discussions were held to revise the current version of the National Smart City Roadmap to make it more resilient, more sustainable, and more conducive to the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) for each city.

At the request of the Ministry of the Interior, the Siem Reap project team presented the process of developing the Siem Reap Smart City Roadmap and points to consider in implementing smart city-related projects, sharing specific examples and lessons learned. Participants also responded that Siem Reap's smart city case study can be a useful reference for other cities.

Siem Reap has played a pioneering role in promoting smart cities in Cambodia and is expected to lead other cities in the future.
