Phnom Penh: On the morning of Thursday, June 11, 2025, H.E. Dr. KAO Thach, Delegate of the Royal Government of Cambodia in charge as Chief Executive Officer of the Agricultural and Rural Development Bank (ARDB), chaired a meeting with the Research Working Group of the AKKAK Pundit Sapheachar Aun Pornmoniroth Center for Policy Studies and Training (APM Center) and the ARDB Center of Excellence – Green Finance to Agriculture (ARDB ACE-GFA Center).
This meeting was organized at ARDB’s Headquarter in Phnom Penh to review and discuss the progress and future work directions of the two Research Working Groups.
The meeting also addressed the appointment of members from the Research Working Groups as representatives of ARDB to the Special Interest Groups (SIGs) of the Association of Development Financing Institutions in Asia and the Pacific (ADFIAP). This initiative aims to address critical sectoral challenges across the Asia-Pacific region, ultimately contributing to sustainable economic development.
Taking this opportunity, H.E. encouraged the two Research Working Groups to cultivate habits of writing, research, and publishing, which will contribute not only to achieving the bank’s goals but also to enhancing personal knowledge and capacity.
