On 30 September 2026, faculty members and students from the National University of Management, including students from NUM International Program in Law (NUM iLAW), undertook a study visit to the Senate of the Kingdom of Cambodia. The visit provided students with an opportunity to deepen their understanding of Cambodia’s legislative institutions, the role and functions of the Senate, and the legislative process through direct institutional exposure.
The delegation, comprising 55 faculty members and students, was warmly welcomed at the Senate Palace by H.E. Mom Bun Neang, Chair of the Senate’s Commission on Investigation, Clearance and Anti-Corruption (Commission 10).
During the visit, H.E. Mom Bun Neang delivered a presentation on the development, organization, and functioning of the Senate, from its First Legislature to the current Fifth Legislature. Students were introduced to the institutional structure of the Senate and its principal functions, including its legislative, oversight, and representative responsibilities.
The session also provided students with insights into the Senate’s current institutional priorities and the importance of parliamentary engagement. H.E. Mom Bun Neang encouraged the students to maintain dignity, dedicate themselves to their studies, ask questions, continuously develop their abilities, and use their knowledge to contribute positively to their families and society.
Representatives of the General Secretariat of the Senate also delivered a presentation on the legislative process, as well as the structure, roles, and responsibilities of the General Secretariat. Through these presentations, students were able to connect their classroom learning with the practical operation of a key national institution.
As part of the program, the faculty members and students were given the opportunity to visit the Senate’s plenary hall and several important and historic areas within the Senate Palace. The visit allowed students to observe the institutional environment firsthand and gain a broader appreciation of how legislative institutions operate in practice. The study visit reflected NUM iLAW’s commitment to providing students with learning opportunities beyond the classroom and strengthening their practical understanding of law, governance, and public institutions.
NUM iLAW extends our sincere appreciation to the Senate of the Kingdom of Cambodia, H.E. Mom Bun Neang, the General Secretariat of the Senate, and all officials concerned for their warm welcome, valuable presentations, and generous support throughout the study visit.
The visit was a meaningful learning experience for our students and contributed to strengthening their understanding of Cambodia’s legislative system and institutions.
