Ministry of Information of Cambodia
Cambodia’s Ministry of Information oversees media and information in Cambodia. Established in 1993 and led by Minister Neth Pheaktra, it operates from its headquarters at 62 Monivong Boulevard in Phnom Penh. The ministry comprises the General Department of Administration and Finance, the General Department of Information and Broadcasting, the Kampuchea News Agency, National Television of Kampuchea, and the National Radio of Kampuchea. Working alongside the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications, it plays a key role in Cambodia’s internet governance, including the implementation of the National Internet Gateway established in February 2021. This centralized gateway system was designed to manage internet traffic, increase tax revenue, and monitor online content for national security and social order, though it has raised concerns from human rights organizations regarding potential restrictions on free speech.
