[PHNOM PENH POST]
DEMAND for accountants will continue to soar in Cambodia, even though there is a lack of qualified experts.
The
global financial crisis had made the role more important, placing it at
the forefront of Cambodia’s business agenda, Association of Chartered
Certified Accountants director of emerging markets Luca Real-Martin said
yesterday.
“The ACCA will provide a strong ground for more
effective professional development and support the advancement of local
accountancy profession, particularly in the public sector,” she said.
The
ACCA yesterday signed a memorandum of understanding with Cambodia’s
National Audit Authority (NAA) that aims to improve the Kingdom’s
accounting profession.
Auditor-General Uth Chhorn welcomed the
memorandum, saying that although the profession had benefited from
recent advancements, further action was required.
“We need to build on the knowledge that auditors have gained,” he said at the signing ceremony yesterday.
The
improvements were expected to be fully implemented within the next five
years, NAA deputy secretary- general Long Atichbora told The Post.
