Archaeologists and representatives from several governments met in Siem Reap for a meeting on the future upkeep of the contentious Preah Vihear temple yesterday. Public affairs officer Jay Raman attended the meeting of the International Coordinating Committee for Preah Vihear – a nine-country body founded under UNESCO auspices in 2014 and co-chaired by India and China – on behalf of the US, a co-founder of the body.

“It’s about archaeology but it’s also about issues of tourism management, community development, hydrology and conservation work at the site,” Raman said of the meeting. During the meeting, it was announced that China would be leading the restoration of three gates at the temple, according to Dr Du Yue, the Chinese co-chair representative.
