At the start of the internship, the students visited and engaged in practical study at the National Assembly Building of the Kingdom of Cambodia.

Notably, the delegation had the opportunity to visit the National Assembly Meeting Room, where significant sessions with national impact have taken place. This meeting room is only opened twice a year for National Assembly sessions, making the delegation's experience particularly special and rare.
