On November 11, 2026, H.E. ពេជ្រ វាសនា, Undersecretary of State and representative of H.E. Thor Chetha, Minister of Water Resources and Meteorology, led technical officials and relevant stakeholders in accompanying a JICA Pre-Appraisal Mission from Tokyo on a field visit for the “Flood Management Project in the Prek Thnot River Basin” in Kampong Speu Province.
The field visit aimed to assess the benefits, define the scope of work and estimate the implementation period in preparation for a request for a new concessional loan from the Japanese government. As a result, the JICA representatives gained a clear understanding of the need to rehabilitate this project.
Once formally launched, the Prek Thnot River Flood Management Project will make an important contribution to mitigating natural disasters, preventing damage to agricultural crops and helping to protect public infrastructure in the area effectively and sustainably. By: ប៉ៃ សុឃីម
