"We engaged in extensive negotiations with the WBC leadership. They meticulously evaluated Kun Khmer activities both domestically and internationally, researched its ancient origins as depicted on temple walls, and experienced firsthand the warm reception in Cambodia. Only after this thorough assessment did the WBC officially approve the inclusion of ‘Kun Khmer’ on the belt."The journey to achieve this recognition involved international travel, particularly to the United States, to showcase Kun Khmer. The WBC, a renowned global boxing organisation, has now officially recognised Kun Khmer, a historic first. This recognition grants Cambodia the right to organise official championship matches under WBC regulations, further promoting the martial art on a global stage.To commemorate this landmark achievement, a grand WBC Kun Khmer Championship event is scheduled for April 14, 2025, in Preah Sihanouk province.

5 Smartest Dog Breeds in the World

date_range 26-Aug-2024
visibility 4

Have you ever wondered how intelligent your dog is compared to other dog breeds? Or would you like to learn more about the world's smartest dog breeds? If so, you have come to the right place.We've identified the ten smartest dog breeds in the world and gone over some of their distinguishing characteristics for you here!1.Border CollieIf you want the most intelligent dog breed, the Border Collie is it. They are incredibly intelligent and active canines with a background in herding. However, keep in mind that, despite their intelligence, they have strong herding instincts and are not usually the best companions for little children or cats. But with a little consistency and instruction, you can teach a Border Collie almost anything!2.PoodleThe Poodle is another well-known intelligent dog breed, and what makes them unique is that they come in a variety of sizes and shapes. Poodles are also regarded more hypoallergenic than other breeds and get along well with children and other dogs, so they can fit into almost any family. No surprise these dogs are so popular!3.German ShepherdIf you want a working dog, there's a reason why the German Shepherd is so popular. They're intelligent enough to learn almost any task you give them, and they're dependable enough to keep performing what you want month after month and day after day. They are also fantastic with youngsters, although you should exercise caution when around other dogs.4. Golden RetrieverIf you're seeking for the ideal family dog, the Golden Retriever may be your best option. They get along well with children and other pets, and they never seem to get enough attention from everyone in the household. They're also quite loyal and intelligent, so a little training and consistency may go a long way.5.Doberman PinscherThe Doberman Pinscher is one of the smartest large dog breeds on the globe, with some weighing nearly 100 pounds! They make excellent family dogs who enjoy impressing their people, however it is important to note that these enormous dogs are quite energetic.As a result, we don't recommend getting one unless you have plenty of room for them to run around and expend some energy.

The full Central Banker Report Cards 2024 grade list will appear in Global Finance’s October print and digital editions as well as online at GFMag.com.The Central Banker Report Cards, published annually by Global Finance since 1994, grade the central bank governors of nearly 100 key countries, territories and districts, as well as the European Union, the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank, the Bank of Central African States and the Central Bank of West African States.Grades are based on an “A+” to “F” scale for success in areas such as inflation control, economic growth goals, currency stability and interest rate management.
