Cambodia's PM Spends Birthday Sharing a Meal With Deaf Students

PHNOM PENH, Oct. 20, 2026: Prime Minister Hun Manet chose to mark his birthday at the Phnom Penh New Special Education School, where he and his wife, H.E. Dr. Pich Chanmony, shared a meal and conversation with students, teachers and staff who are deaf or hard-of-hearing.

The gathering on Tuesday brought the Prime Minister together with the school community in an informal setting.

The occasion was described as reflecting the government's care for persons with disabilities and vulnerable groups, and its commitment to their education, welfare and living standards — ensuring that no one is left behind.
