What are your future plans for the federation?

What is your federation’s biggest achievement?
The promotion and education of the public to understand what is Esports is the first biggest achievement. Public considers games or Esports to be gambling and a negative view. Game players become real athletes. After we established EFC in 2014, we tried hard to educate and explain it to the public through workshops, conferences, tournaments, exhibitions, etc. The most important thing is that we sent the national team to participate abroad and we got the champion. AK2 Cambodian national team, Secret won the championship of 2015 MATIC (Mission Against Terror International Championship) in China, Never Care won MATIC in 2017 in Malaysia and Clach Ey won MACTIC in 2019 when Cambodia hosted the event. So far much of the public consider and recognize Esports as real sports like others.
