Press Release

As part of AIA Group’s mission to help one billion people across Asia live Healthier, Longer, Better Lives by 2030, we celebrate role models who inspire purpose and promote healthy living.

From daily runs to international marathons, Thon Soriya has covered over 10,000 KM since 2022—not just for fitness, but to uplift others.

Each year, he and his team raise funds for Angkor Hospital for Children, helping children receive life-saving care. In AIA Pink Run 2024, Soriya inspired over 300 runners to raise awareness for breast cancer—turning a single event into a movement of compassion and courage.

This November, Soriya will represent AIA Cambodia at the AIA One Billion Day Celebration during the Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon in Manila, Philippines. His inspiring journey will be shared alongside heroes from other AIA markets, celebrating impact and purpose across the region.

About AIA Cambodia

AIA (Cambodia) Life Insurance Plc (“AIA Cambodia”) is a member of AIA Group Limited, the largest independent publicly listed pan-Asian life insurance group with branches and subsidiaries in 18 markets. 

AIA Cambodia is guided by our purpose to help Cambodians live Healthier, Longer, Better Lives. Since commencing business in 2017, we’ve become the first life insurer to provide coverage on 26 critical illnesses and today, with our new, upgraded critical illness protection, we are also the first in the Cambodian insurance industry to offer a plan encompassing 118 conditions from their early to late stage. As among the Kingdom’s premier insurers, AIA Cambodia offers market-leading life and health solutions for all walks of life. These include tailor-made crucial coverage plans that range from critical illnesses and accidents to medical insurance and overseas emergency assistance.

We focus on building an inclusive society that benefits from a healthy lifestyle, achieving this via community-first initiatives that include partnering the Ministry of Women’s Affairs to further empower gender equality and women’s rights and raising breast cancer awareness through our annual Fit for Hope campaign.  

AIA Cambodia also uplifts thousands of underprivileged children by sponsoring the AIA-ISF Youth League – Cambodia’s largest grassroots football league. We collaborate with AIA’s global principal partner, English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur, to ensure these children receive the education they deserve.  

AIA Cambodia is the only Cambodian life insurer awarded HR Asia’s “Best Companies to Work for in Asia” for five consecutive years, from 2020 to 2024. Headquartered in Phnom Penh, the company currently has branches in Siem Reap, Kampot, Kampong Cham and Battambang.  

In January 2024, we launched ‘AIA One Life, One Health’, which encourages Cambodians to better enjoy life by focusing on their health and wellbeing. The campaign keeps to our conviction that good health impacts all aspects of life and is a defining factor in determining its quality.
