Phnom Penh (FN), Nov. 8 – Cambodian prime minister Hun Sen has instructed the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports not to reopen kindergarten program yet as those children are yet eligible to get vaccinate against COVID19.

The premier spoke at the inauguration of the office building of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction on Monday.

“Children in kindergarten are 3-4 years old and they are yet vaccinated. Therefore, we should hold on resuming the kindergarten program,” said the premier.

The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports announced the reopening of public and private educational institutions nationwide from 1 November 2021. So far, 2,641 schools have reopened.

The ministry will expand the scope of teaching and learning in public and private educational institutions throughout the kingdom, while also strictly adhering to the health and safety measures.
