More than one hundred delegates from King Prajadhipok’s Institute of the Kingdom of Thailand visited Paññāsāstra University of Cambodia (PUC) to explore the path toward the implementation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC).

Education is the foundation of character building. Only education can provide educational skills, as well as mental, intellectual, and wisdom development, which will generate sustainable development and progress for a prosperous nation.

In accordance with ASEAN’s purpose, PUC tries to deliver quality education that is attainable by and responsive to the needs of the people of Cambodia and that of global community. We play special emphasis on the study of peace and conflict resolution, development, moral and ethical conduct as well as social responsibility in order to successfully achieve comprehensive integration toward the conciliation of an open, dynamic and regional ASEAN community.

PUC has an institute dedicated to peace and conflict resolution with universities in Japan, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, and Pakistan. With this noble mission we endeavor to foster a spirit of kindness, compassion, high moral conduct, perfect virtue, and respect for human value.

The ultimate goal of our general education is to develop human beings in order to live a happy life equipped with high moral conduct, strong self-discipline, virtue, and responsible professional skill, , loving kindness and compassion.

I sincerely hope that all the people of the ASEAN member states would act in accordance with the principles of the ASEAN Charter, which is to respect the independent integrity, equality, and national identity of all ASEAN member states, and the commitment and collective responsibility to enhance regional peace, security and prosperity.
