Project background
The region of Angkor has recently seen a significant increase
in the number of tourists visiting Siemreap, as well as
the number of people throwing waste into the rivers and
forests, a boom in hotel construction and a higher volume
of car traffic.
These factors can have adverse impacts on Angkor's heritage
and local people's lives, and create an unfavorable image
of the region, which may alienate visitors.
The Environmental Management System is needed for the protection
and improvement of the environment of the Angkor area (for
example, to reduce the waste volume and keep the water and
air clean).
