Angkor Resources Celebrates Indigenous Land Title Recognition and Expands Social Programs in Cambodia

The formal granting of nine Indigenous community land titles to communities in Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia, represents a significant milestone for both the Indigenous peoples of the region and Angkor Resources Corp., whose Andong Meas mineral exploration license is situated within these traditional lands. This recognition follows a three-year process and reinforces the company's commitment to collaborative engagement with local communities, particularly in a province home to approximately 45% of Cambodia's Indigenous population. CEO Delayne Weeks emphasized that this achievement reflects years of collaborative effort and that working alongside these communities as partners ensures mutual respect and shared benefit as exploration activities advance.

Beyond land rights support, Angkor continues to implement a range of social programs across its operational areas in Cambodia, working closely with local authorities who participate in all sessions. The company's initiatives include English language training for children in surrounding communities, providing valuable skills for future education and employment. Additionally, Angkor is implementing the installation of water filtration systems and latrines in communities across the Block VIII oil and gas license area, improving access to clean water and sanitation for rural Cambodian families.

Safety remains a critical focus, with the company sponsoring moto vehicle safety training sessions to address motorcycle-related injuries and fatalities, particularly among children, in a region where motorcycles are the primary transportation mode. Angkor also sponsors financial fraud awareness training, educating community members on identifying and avoiding scams through mobile phones and platforms like Telegram to protect vulnerable populations from digital financial fraud. The company has reached over 1,500 students through its sponsored training sessions to date, with all programs conducted in partnership with local authorities who help deliver content to their communities.

Weeks stated that social responsibility is fundamental to how the company operates, emphasizing that building trust and creating value for communities creates a stronger foundation for all activities. The company's approach integrates community engagement directly with its resource exploration efforts in Cambodia's mineral and energy sectors.
