Ta Keo:

With regard to the stability of the different pediments of the first Gopura on the east façade, recently reassembled, if their internal vertical anchors have actually been put in, then ICC-Angkor recommends that the temporary cables be removed, having served their purpose;

Regarding stone conservation work now underway, ICC-Angkor reminds the value of strengthening interdisciplinary technical cooperation;

Recommends that the stone storage areas on the monument’s periphery be inventoried, in view of proposing their final conservation or possible reuse in situ. Moreover, in the same area, ICC-Angkor recommends that appropriate borings or test pits be done to ascertain the implantation, nature and interest of the buried structures emerging at the surface of the soil.
