President of the National Assembly of the Kingdom of Cambodia
Welcome to the official website of the 27th Annual Meeting of the Asia-Pacific Parliamentary Forum (APPF), which will be held in the historic city of Siem Reap, Kingdom of Cambodia, from 14 to 17 January 2019.
The APPF, a powerful Asia-Pacific regional forum, seeks to provide opportunities for parliamentarians of the Asia-Pacific region to identify and discuss matters of common concern and to highlight them in a global context.
The APPF also provides opportunities for parliamentarians of the Asia-Pacific region to examine the political, social, and cultural developments resulting from economic growth and integration.
The proposed theme of “Strengthening parliamentary partnership for peace, security and sustainable development” reflects the development trend of international relations, parliamentary diplomacy and guides our discussions leading to a joint declaration that emphasizes the commitments of all members to promote economic, cultural and regional cooperation for peace, security, and sustainable development.
The National Assembly of the Kingdom of Cambodia is honored to gain the trust of all Member Parliaments and warmly welcomes the presence of delegates from Member Parliaments, Observer Organizations and other relevant partners in this historic event.
We look forward to welcoming delegates to the Kingdom of Cambodia for the 27th Annual Meeting of the APPF. We hope that you will enjoy your stay in Cambodia.
