3. SAFETY, RESPECT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE AND VISITORS COMFORT
The Committee wishes to stress the importance of keeping absolute overall safety conditions within the Angkor Park.
The Committee is proud of the growing number of visitors and opportunities for them to extend the length of their stay, notably by promoting specific itineraries and high quality events. The committee thereby highly recommends that appropriate safety conditions and resources within the Angkor areas be available for visitors’ comfort on itineraries.
The Committee particularly recommends to make sure that the Angkor area keeps its holy aspect, its prestige and unique charm, preventing it from losing its exceptional signification.
Finally, the Committee recommends that the needed promotion of tourism should never be carried out without respecting cultural heritage and the authenticity of the monuments.
