The Asian Productivity Organization (APO) and the National Productivity Centre (NPCC) of MISTI are co-hosting a training programme on Blockchain Technology Applications in e-Government from Monday until Friday in Phnom Penh. The programme aims to enhance productivity in the Asian region.
The event, presided over by Phork Sovanrith, MISTI’s Secretary of State and APO Director for Cambodia, brought together productivity representatives from various countries, including Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Turkey, and Vietnam.
“Blockchain technology has emerged as a transformative force in various sectors, including e-government initiatives in Cambodia. Its application can significantly enhance transparency, efficiency, and security in governmental processes,” said Sovanrith.
Throughout the programme, productivity representatives from the region will engage in hands-on exploration of the practical applications of blockchain-driven solutions in e-governance systems. The objective is to help them understand the practical importance of blockchain architecture in advancing e-government initiatives and improving service delivery by public-sector organisations, ultimately enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of e-government programmes through the integration of blockchain technology.
The APO, a key player in promoting productivity in the Asia-Pacific region, is committed to enhancing economic growth and development through collaborative activities, capacity building, and knowledge sharing. This training programme is a testament to our dedication to this mission.
