ABA​ Bank,​ the​ number​ one​ commercial​ bank​ in​ Cambodia,​ contributed​ $15,000​ to​ the​ Financial​ Literacy​ workshop​ initiated​ by​ the​ National​ Bank​ of​ Cambodia.​ The​ donation​ was​ used​ to​ produce​ 5,000​ “Let’s​ Talk​ about​ Money”​ kid’s​ comic​ books​ handed​ over​ to​ the​ Muk​ Neak​ primary​ school​ students​ in​ Siem​ Reap​ on​ August​ 12,​ 2022.

The​ workshop​ was​ attended​ by​ H.E.​ Dr.​ Mok​ Sarom,​ Deputy​ Director​ General​ of​ the​ Ministry​ of​ Education,​ Youth​ and​ Sport,​ and​ distinguished​ guests.​

The​ workshop​ aims​ to​ integrate​ financial​ education​ into​ the​ school​ curriculum,​ such​ as​ budget​ planning​ and​ savings​ culture,​ making​ students​ think​ critically​ about​ how​ secure​ and​ beneficial​ it​ is​ to​ save​ money​ with​ a​ financial​ institution.

This​ activity​ corresponds​ to​ ABA​ Bank’s​ Corporate​ Social​ Responsibility​ (CSR)​ principles​ and​ the​ Bank​ fully​ supports​ the​ National​ Bank​ of​ Cambodia​ initiative​ to​ provide​ students​ across​ the​ country​ with​ fundamentals​ of​ financial​ knowledge.
