AKP Phnom Penh, August 11, 2025 -- The Minister of Information has called on his ministry’s administrative staff to elevate themselves from being human resources to becoming true human capital in order to drive greater productivity and institutional performance.

H.E. Neth Pheaktra made the remarks during the opening ceremony of a training on “Promoting Law Enforcement and Internal Administrative Management” held at the Ministry on Aug. 11.

Human capital goes beyond the concept of human resources and refers to individuals who possess strong talent, diverse skills, and deep professional experience, especially those capable of consistently delivering high-quality results.

The Minister emphasised that the training programme is designed to enhance the efficiency of administrative operations, equipping them with the knowledge and discipline to follow standardised procedures, ensuring consistency and professionalism across the ministry.

While Cambodia as well as the Ministry of Information already has a substantial pool of human resources, it is vital to further strengthen their capabilities into human capital that embodies not only technical qualifications but also moral integrity and virtuous conduct.

He added that human resources, human capital, modern administration, and institutional modernisation are essential pillars of reform and serve as key drivers for boosting productivity and achieving high-performance governance.
