This is according to the Ministry of Commerce issued on the morning of October 2, 2026.
Cambodia's presence under the theme "Cambodia – Basket of Wonders" strongly captured the attention of the high-level delegation through an elegant arrangement that showcased the diversity of culture, art, dance, cuisine, as well as promotional videos of tourist destinations and processed industrial-agricultural potential. The leaders showed particular interest in the Cambodian exhibits, which included Geographical Indication (GI) products.
