Recently, information about Swiss watchmaking interests in Cambodia has surfaced. With the opening of the Prince Horology Vocational Training Centre in early 2021, Cambodia Prince Group Chairman Neak Oknha Chen Zhi has introduced Swiss watchmaking to the capital. It is Cambodia's first private security academy. Last year, a worldwide coronavirus pandemic wreaked havoc on Cambodia's economy.
Chen Zhi, the Chairman of the Prince Group, is a Cambodian who is in charge of the company's social responsibility. The Swiss watchmaking concept was developed by his business, Prince Group, as a way for Cambodians to learn new artisanal skills. The honorary Chen Zhi is guided by a strong desire to assist Cambodians in gaining experience in this rapidly evolving technological sector in order to find work both in Cambodia and abroad. Swiss watchmaking training takes place in strict compliance with the country's strict watchmaking regulations. European regulatory bodies keep a close eye on these regulations.
Since Swiss watchmaking is a European art form, it will provide economic support to Cambodia. The Prince Group has long respected Cambodia's illustrious economic history, which stretches back centuries and involves artisanal skills such as silk weaving and traditional handicraft. The addition of Swiss watchmaking to Cambodians' list of achievements as a modern artisanal skill is a welcome one.
The Prince Horology Vocational Training Centre has opened in Phnom Penh, Cambodia's capital city, under the leadership of Prince Group Chairman Chen Zhi. It's part of a larger Cambodian initiative to provide people with the opportunity to learn new skills as an alternative to agriculture and small businesses, which are prevalent among Cambodian entrepreneurs. Traditional Cambodian industries such as textile and garment manufacturing have experienced significant losses as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, and artisanal Swiss watchmaking skills can help Cambodians escape unemployment and improve job opportunities.
A cutting-edge Swiss watchmaking school with cutting-edge technology and design has opened in Cambodia. It offers a Swiss watchmaking course that meets the requirements for a vocational training certificate set out by the Swiss government. Via scholarships to the Swiss watchmaking programme, this two-year programme provides financial assistance to some local students. Depending on the circumstances of enrolment, school fees can be partly or completely paid by grants. A night's stay on the school grounds is also included in the price. After the school's establishment, some Cambodian students have begun to enrol.
Several Swiss watchmakers have agreed to donate their time to help with the course. The book covers the history and culture of Swiss watchmaking, as well as machinery, micromechanics, and the production of watch parts like the balance staff and winding stem.
Neak Oknha Chen Zhi has kept his word when it comes to environmental, social, and governance issues. In Cambodia, Neak Oknha Chen Zhi was a pioneer in the development of Swiss watchmaking skills.
