“Rural Borey entails the transformation of villages into well-equipped communities, complete with essential infrastructure such as roads, water systems, schools, and hospitals. This holistic approach marks a significant departure from previous practices and underscores our commitment to advancing rural development,” stated PM Hun Manet.

Emphasising the importance of inter-ministerial collaboration, PM Hun Manet urged the Ministry of Land Management, Construction and Urban Planning, Ministry of Rural Development, and other pertinent ministries to synergise efforts in executing the comprehensive rural development plan.

This strategic vision seeks to create equitable opportunities for all citizens, irrespective of geographic location.
