On 24 August 2021, the APTERR Secretariat attended the virtual meeting of the Special Senior Officials Meeting of the 20th Meeting of the ASEAN Ministers on Agriculture and Forestry Plus Three (SSOM-20th AMAF+3) hosted by Cambodia. Mr. Chanpithya Shimphalee, the General Manager of the APTERR Secretariat, reported the progress of APTERR activities occurring from 2020-2021.
