Phnom Penh, Cambodia: Amret continues to strengthen its collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS), Preah Srey Içanavarman Museum (Sosoro Museum), and Sipar Cambodia through the initiative “10,000 Steps for 10,000 Students,” which aims to promote a reading culture and enhance students’ understanding of Cambodia’s history and the evolution of its monetary system throughout different periods.

As part of this collaboration, Amret organized its third educational study visit to Preah Srey Içanavarman Museum (Sosoro Museum), welcoming 200 students and teachers from Kampong Speu High School. The visit provided students with an opportunity to explore and gain firsthand learning experiences in several important areas, including:

• The Importance of Reading and Learning: Encouraging reading habits and inspiring students to expand their knowledge beyond the classroom.
• Over 2,000 Years of Cambodian History: Exploring the evolution of Cambodian civilization and its historical heritage.
• The Evolution of Cambodia’s Economy and Currency: Understanding the development of the country's monetary system and the importance of preserving its national historical heritage.

The educational visit not only provided students with opportunities to gain new knowledge but also helped bridge classroom learning with practical experiences through observation, exploration, and learning from historical exhibits and collections at the museum.

Under this initiative, Amret plans to continue organizing educational study visits for students from various provinces across Cambodia, with the goal of reaching a total of 10,000 students over the next three years. This initiative aims to expand access to extracurricular learning opportunities and encourage young Cambodians to gain a deeper appreciation of their country's history, culture, and national heritage.

Amret believes that education, reading, and an understanding of national history are essential foundations for human capital development and building a knowledge-based society. Through collaboration with relevant partners, Amret remains committed to creating more educational opportunities and meaningful learning experiences for Cambodian children and youth, contributing to the country's sustainable development.
