SAM RAINSY TO PARTICIPATE IN ECONOMIC CONFERENCES IN GERMANY AND SWITZERLAND

Opposition leader Sam Rainsy is to participate in economic conferences in Germany and Switzerland from January 20 to 26.

From January 20 to 22 he will be in Munich (Bavaria, Southern Germany) to take part in a series of DLD (Digital - Life - Design) conferences. DLD is a global conference network on innovation, digital, science and culture which connects business, creative and social leaders, opinion-formers and investors for crossover conversation and inspiration (www.DLD-conference.com).

From January 22 to 26 he will be in Davos (Switzerland) to join the World Economic Forum, which is an independent international organization committed to improving the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas (www.weforum.org).

At the above conferences Sam Rainsy -- who will meet with some of the most important persons in the world, in the political, economic, business and intellectual spheres -- will defend Cambodia’s economic interests knowing that the world’s most powerful corporations pay more and more attention to good governance, the rule of law, democracy and social justice as the foundation of peace, stability and sustainable development.

The 2013 World Economic Forum in Davos will be co-chaired, along with CEOs of the world’s largest companies, by the president of Transparency International: This shows how important clean and honest governments are to the world business community. Sam Rainsy’s message and his long fight against corruption in Cambodia will certainly interest many world leaders.

On January 27 Sam Rainsy will be received by the Cambodian community in Switzerland at a public meeting in Zurich.
