CAMBODIA: Prime Minister Hun Manet led a celebration today marking the return of dozens of precious artefacts from museums and private collectors abroad, vowing that his government would continue working to bring more home.

The PM, who took over from his long-serving father Hun Sen last year, said the 70 returned statues symbolically reunited the Cambodian people with their ancestral souls.
