Phnom Penh (FN), Dec. 29 – Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet stated that the Win-win Memorial monument serves as a chronicle of Cambodia's recent historical events, offering future generations insight into the nation's long journey to peace.
The premier spoke on Friday (Dec. 29) during a celebration of the 25th anniversary of the end of Cambodian civil war, held at Win-win Memorial monument, Phnom Penh.
The monument recorded the historical moments from the flames of war and the horrors of the Khmer Rouge genocidal regime to the determined effort to overthrow it and to the introduction of the win-win policy, fostering national unity, and spearheading peace building and development for the motherland, the premier added.
On that occasion, Samdech Thipadei stated that the construction of the monument serves as a tribute to the collective accomplishments of the Cambodian people from all corners, functioning as both a celebration and a reminder of Cambodia's history. It stands as a testament for the next generation, urging them to cherish the value of peace and gain a profound understanding of the realities of history.
Samdech Thipadei continued, “The Win-win monument isn't meant to honour any individual or group but serves as a testament, a record for all Cambodian children and guests—both national and international—to witness Cambodia's historical journey.”
On the occasion, Premier Hun Manet instructed the team at the Win-Win Monument to continue carving new achievements, encompassing Cambodia's successful hosting of the Sea Games and the momentous arrival of the Western Dam cruise ship in 2020—instances where the world acknowledged Cambodia as a small country with a big heart. These national achievements are intended to instil pride in the youth of Cambodia, inspiring them to persevere in their pursuits.
At the same time, the premier expressed his optimism that the ongoing narrative of achievements will persist, with each new success leaving its mark on the monument's walls.
