Asnarith called on all stakeholders to engage constructively, acknowledge realities, and recognise Cambodia’s progress, particularly the Ministry’s ongoing efforts to further enhance and promote press freedom as a cornerstone of democratic governance under the rule of law.
Cambodia Highlights Press Freedom Gains, Pledges Stronger Media Governance in Digital Era
#Cambodia marked #WorldPressFreedom Day by highlighting progress in journalist protection and pledging to strengthen media governance frameworks in response to rapid digital transformation.
At the event, Asnarith also praised national and international journalists for reporting on the truth about the Thai military armed aggressions on Cambodia's territory and sovereignty.
This is strong evidence reflecting a supportive working #environment & the efforts from the Ministry of Information & the Royal Gov. of #Cambodia in promoting press freedom, linking to the cause of human rights, socio-economic development, & the safeguarding of national security.
“The state of #pressfreedom and press order in Cambodia were rated as good”: this is the result of a nationwide survey on the state of press freedom in Cambodia in 2026, which was released on 29 April 2026.
Thailand’s deliberate weaponization of the issue of online scams against Cambodia is not about law enforcement—it is political cover for a far more serious violation: the encroachment on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of a neighboring state
