PHNOM PENH: Senate president Hun Sen posted a short video clip of Cambodia’s 32nd SEA Games closing ceremony, reviving national pride just days before Thailand prepares to host the opening of the 33rd Games on Tuesday (Dec 9) — an event which is already drawing international and domestic criticism over its preparations and organisation.

The video, which runs just over two minutes, features the 2023 closing ceremony and part of former Prime Minister Hun Sen’s speech delivered under the theme “Sports: Live in Peace”.
