Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, an aficionado of luxury watches, will hand out intricate, locally made timepieces as souvenirs for world leaders at an international summit he is hosting this week.
Hun Sen, who has ruled Cambodia for 37 years, has faced public scrutiny in recent years after being photographed wearing luxury watches, including by Patek Philippe and Richard Mille, that cost more than $1 million each, while much of the country struggles with poverty.
U.S. President Joe Biden is among the global leaders attending the Association of Southeast Asian Nations summit in the capital Phnom Penh. The prime minister's office did not respond to requests for further information on the watches, and Prince Horology - part of the Prince Group owned by Chinese-Cambodian tycoon Chen Zhi - could not be reached for comment.
