“We are proud to announce that we are ready and welcome everyone to come to the 32nd SEA Games and 12th Asean Para Games. It has been 64 years since the SEA Games were organised and finally, we are the hosts.

“I would also like to announce that no tickets are for sale and admission to every sports venue is free.

“We have enough facilities to accommodate everyone, from hotels to transportation services.

“Our sports village can accommodate almost 10,000 athletes, located near Morodok Techo National Stadium,” he said after the Cambodia 2023 Torch Relay here today.
