First of all, on behalf of all the attendees present here today, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to His Excellency Dr. Sok An and the royal government of Cambo- dia for their strong commitment to the ICC process. I also wish to express my heartfelt thanks to all the teams and individuals taking part in this session, many of whom have contributed to the ICC’s activities since its very inception. My gratitude also goes to H.E. Mr. Jean-Claude Poimboeuf, the Ambassador of France, for acting as my co-chairperson. As you all know, the experiences and good practices that the ICC-Angkor has ac- quired over the last 20 years deserve to be recognised as the successful model they are providing for others. The ICC-Angkor recommendations, adopted with the assistance of the ad hoc group of experts, need to be duly respected, followed up and implemented effec- tively. The discussion theme selected for this plenary session is the ‘New Ticketing Sys- tem’. I am looking forward to clarification from the royal government on the ticketing system and its perspective on the long-term financial plan for the conservation activities and sustainable development of the Angkor site. Before concluding my remarks, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the APSARA Authority for the pivotal and increasingly important role it plays in the protec- tion, restoration and development of the Angkor heritage sites. I would also like to thank the donor countries, the international organisations and technical teams who are also sup- porting
