In his welcome remarks, Min Kompheak described the seminar as an important opportunity for civil servants to better understand the National Audit Authority’s roles and duties and help strengthen public-administration efficiency.
សួន សិទ្ធី said the seminar aimed to improve subnational civil servants’ understanding of the external audit of government performed by the National Audit Authority, encouraging cooperation and support for more effective auditing.
He said high-quality, transparent audits would help improve governance, reduce errors in managing and using the national budget, protect state assets and strengthen public confidence.
