Cambodia’s Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports (MoEYS), has decided that all Grade 12 students sitting for exams on January 11 are deemed as having passed their exams automatically.
This Ministry said was due to the concerns over the spread of COVID-19.
According to a statement Xinhua received on Thursday, all Grade 9 students who already took their annual exams on November 30 are also deemed as passing their exams automatically.
“In compliance with the high recommendation of Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen for the high school exam and the secondary school exam during the 2019-2020 academic years, the MoEYS decides to allow all registered candidates to pass their exams automatically without grading,’’ said the statement signed by Education Minister Hang Chuon

The Vietnam Internet Association hosted Internet Day 2020 on December 16, marking the 23rd year since Vietnam became part of the global internet network.
With the theme “Digital Transformation in Vietnam: From Aspiration to Reality”, the event’s discussions centred around Cloud Computing, 5G Services, e-Payment and Mobile Money, Blockchain, Free and Open-source Software (FOSS), and “Make-in-Vietnam” digital technologies, among others.
In June, the government adopted the National Digital Transformation Roadmap 2025 and vision towards 2030, which focuses on three pillars: e-Government, e-economy, and e-society.

The decision was taken at a virtual coordination meeting for COVID-19 handling in Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, East Java, and Bali chaired by Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan.
The minister ordered to apply stricter restrictions against COVID-19 from 18 December to 8 January next year.
A significant rise in confirmed cases was recorded after the holidays and joint leave at the end of October that necessitated the Indonesian government to tighten restrictions.
