金边正在主办于11月15日开幕的第二十届法语国家组织峰会。然而，随着与泰国的紧张关系加剧以及旅游业的衰退，此次峰会召开之际正值柬埔寨面临挑战的时期。
Phnom Penh is hosting the 20th Francophonie summit, which opens on 15 November. But with tensions with Thailand rising and tourism in decline, the summit comes at a challenging time for Cambodia.
“高棉的微笑，法语国家的微笑”……“请讲法语”……“欢迎来到奇迹王国”……从机场到市中心，在柬埔寨首都拥堵的交通中，无数的海报宣传着将于11月15日至16日举行的法语国家组织峰会。
"The Khmer smile, the smile of La Francophonie"...
在1997年河内峰会近30年后，这是国际法语国家组织（OIF）峰会第二次在亚洲举行。
"In French, please"...
这是对已故国王诺罗敦·西哈努克遗产的致敬。西哈努克是柬埔寨现代史上的关键人物，也是国际法语国家组织的创始人和之一，与利奥波德·塞达尔·桑戈尔、哈马尼·迪奥里和哈比卜·布尔吉巴齐名。
"Welcome to the kingdom of wonders"... From the airport to the city centre, amidst the heavy traffic of the Cambodian capital, numerous posters advertise the Francophonie summit, taking place from 15 to 16 November.
与泰国的紧张关系 对柬埔寨而言，此次峰会是一个在国际舞台上提升知名度、为其外交筹码增加新牌的机会，该国一直在寻求使其合作伙伴多元化。
Almost 30 years after the 1997 summit in Hanoi, this is only the second International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF) summit to be held in Asia.
在与邻国泰国关系紧张之际，这也为柬埔寨提供了一个受到欢迎的发声机会。
It serves as a tribute to the legacy of the late King Norodom Sihanouk, a key figure in Cambodia’s modern history and one of the founders of the OIF, alongside Léopold Sédar-Senghor, Hamani Diori and Habib Bourguiba.
两国之间长期的边界争端依然处于关键期，在一年前急剧升级导致数十万人流离失所并造成数十人丧生之后。
Tensions with Thailand The summit represents an opportunity for Cambodia to raise its profile on the international stage and add another card to its diplomatic hand, as the country continues to seek to diversify its partners.
今年峰会的主题是“重新投资和平以实现共同繁荣与持久稳定”，其官方网站明确指出，“标志着该地区历史的边界争端”仍然是实现这一目标的障碍。
It also serves as a welcome opportunity for Cambodia to make its voice heard amid tensions with neighbouring Thailand.
但这个问题对法国来说是一个棘手的问题，法国发现自己处于尴尬的境地。
The long-running border dispute between the two countries remains critical, one year on from a sharp escalation that displaced hundreds of thousands of people and claimed dozens of lives.
卢旺达与刚果民主共和国之间的紧张关系威胁到法语国家组织选举 冲突的根源可追溯到殖民时代，1907年的《法暹条约》划定了泰国（当时称暹罗王国）与法属印度支那之间的边界。
me of this year's summit is "Reinvest in peace for shared prosperity and lasting stability", ad its website states unequivocally that "the border disputes that have marked the region’s history" continue to be an obstacle to this.
尽管国际法院在1962年作出裁决，将柏威夏寺判给柬埔寨，但周边地区的划界仍然存在争议，并成为持续紧张的根源。
But the issue is a thorny one for France, which finds itself in a difficult position.
2025年12月斡旋达成的停火协议依然有效，但局势依然脆弱，金边指责曼谷非法占领其领土。
Rwanda-DRC tensions threaten to overshadow Francophonie election The origin of the conflict dates back to the colonial era, with the Franco-Siamese Treaty of 1907 which defined the borders between Thailand (then the Kingdom of Siam) and French Indochina.
这一活动可能会给柬埔寨一个争取其他法语国家支持的机会。法语国家议会大会去年7月通过了一项决议，呼吁严格尊重柬埔寨的主权。
Despite the International Court of Justice's 1962 ruling awarding the Preah Vihear temple to Cambodia, the demarcation of the surrounding areas remains disputed and a source of persistent tension. The ceasefire brokered in December 2025 remains in force, but the situation remains fragile with Phnom Penh accusing Bangkok of illegally occupying its territory.
然而，该问题可能被列入峰会议程的想法并未受到泰国的欢迎。泰国指责金边企图将冲突“国际化”，并在外交压力的背景下，明确要求不要提出该问题。
The event could give Cambodia a chance to gain support from other Francophone countries. The Parliamentary Assembly of the Francophonie adopted a resolution last July calling for strict respect for Cambodia’s sovereignty.
经济与旅游 主办国的另一个核心优先事项是经济。在中柬商业论坛、法兰克福科技展和法语国家企业家会议之间，峰会边缘举行的活动预计将吸引数百家企业和投资者。
However, the idea that the issue could be on the summit agenda has not been well received by Thailand, which has accused Phnom Penh of seeking to "internationalise" the conflict and has explicitly requested the matter not be raised, against a backdrop of diplomatic pressure. Economy and tourism Another key priority for the host country is the economy.
通过欢迎来自世界各地的数千名代表、参展商和游客，柬埔寨期望提振自今年年初以来一直挣扎的旅游业。
Between the France-Cambodia Business Forum, the FrancoTech fair and the Francophone Entrepreneurs’ meeting, the events taking place on the fringes of the summit are expected to attract hundreds of businesses and investors.
法国总统马克龙将在法语国家组织峰会期间对柬埔寨进行国事访问 全球紧张局势、飙升的机票价格，以及更具地方色彩的与泰国的边境危机和网络诈骗中心问题，给2026年前九个月的外国游客数量泼了冷水。
By welcoming thousands of delegates, exhibitors and visitors from around the world, Cambodia expects to boost its tourism sector, which has struggled since the start of the year.
复苏旅游业是法语国家村的目标之一，这是一个在峰会前两天向公众开放的文化活动。
France's Macron to pay state visit to Cambodia during Francophonie summit Global tensions and soaring airfares – and, more locally, the border crisis with Thailand and the issue of online scam centres – have put a damper on foreign visitor numbers over the first nine months of 2026.
金边还打算利用此次峰会加强与法语世界的经济联系。根据国际法语国家组织的数据，法语世界占全球国内生产总值的16%和全球货物贸易的20%。
Reviving tourism is one of the aims of the Village de la Francophonie, a cultural event open to the general public from two days before the summit. Phnom Penh also intends to use the summit to strengthen its economic ties with the Francophone world, which, according to the OIF, accounts for 16 percent of global GDP and 20 percent of international trade in goods.
然而，峰会的另一个关键问题是柬埔寨的语言政策，法语在该国继续失去阵地。据估计，法语人口约占总人口的3%，而英语和中文正越来越受欢迎。
However, another key issue at the summit is Cambodia's language policy, as French continues to lose ground in the country. French speakers are estimated to account for around 3 percent of the population, while English and Chinese are gaining in popularity.
尽管国际法语国家组织已与柬埔寨签署了一项为期五年的计划以加强法语教学，但法语现在主要是一门专业语言，仅限于法语机构、部分高等教育课程和家庭传承。
While the OIF has signed a five-year plan with Cambodia to boost French-language teaching, French is now largely a language of specialisation, confined to Francophone institutions, some higher education courses and family heritage.
