The data received from some licensees may not up to the required level of accuracy and hence the information provided in this report may be taken as indicative. This report is for dissemination to the Royal Government, institutions, investors and public desirous to know about the situation of the power sector of the Kingdom of Cambodia during the year 2012. With addition of more HV transmission system and MV sub-transmission system, more and more licensees are getting connected to the grid supply. This has resulted in improvement in the quality of supply to more consumers. By end of 2012, more than 91% of the consumers are connected to the grid system. More licensees are now supplying electricity for 24 hours a day. The grid supply has reduced the cost of supply and consequently the tariff for supply to consumers. Due to lower cost and other measures taken by Royal Government of Cambodia, in 2012 there has been a substantial increase in the number of consumers availing electricity supply.

The forum is held throughout 24 Cambodian provinces: from the most remote areas of the nation, to the capital city of Phnom Penh. By providing non-formal education on how to effectively teach Democratic Kampuchea (DK) history, the forum makes a positive impact on formal Public Education Forum in Wat Trapeang Kraham education inside Cambodian classrooms. (Red pond), Ratanak Kiri The forum creates a safe space for people of all ages, backgrounds, and statuses to discuss DK history. By allowing both victims and perpetrators to share their experiences and perspectives of the atrocities committed during the Khmer Rouge (KR) period, the forum leads Cambodians to the common ground necessary to finding peace, ensuring reconciliation and building a better future. The forum also encourages direct intergenerational dialogues at home, an important feat at a time when the struggles of contemporary life cause many Cambodian families to sweep their violent past under the rug. Many survivors, haunted by their traumatic pasts, find solace in voicing for the first time the stories that they have carried inside, untold for over thirty years. At one forum in Phnom Penh, a villager, age 67, asked if she could share her story with the children.
