4. The APSARA National Authority is to prepare with its experts documents for protection of the cultural landscape for review at the next Technical Session. This will require among other things seeing to it that a liaison is established between the Angkor cultural heritage and the Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve on which the human community relies for its water supply. In this regard, full importance is to be given to the Tonle Sap and prepare the necessary technical files. Also, a link must be made between the flooded forest and the whole Tonle Sap zone. As for Siem Reap town, a satellite of the World Heritage Site, measures to ensure protection of what remains of the urban heritage must be taken quickly.
