President Bassirou Diomaye Faye is already in Phnom Penh, where he will be joined by El Malick Ndiaye, acting president of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Francophonie. According to SeneNews, the trip gives Senegal a double presence, that of the head of state and that of francophone parliamentary diplomacy.

Senegalese President Bassirou Diomaye Faye and El Malick Ndiaye, acting president of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Francophonie (APF), are representing Senegal in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The head of state is already in the Cambodian capital, while El Malick Ndiaye is set to join him, according to SeneNews.

El Malick Ndiaye is acting head of the APF, the parliamentary organisation of the francophone space. His candidacy for first vice-president of the institution was adopted unanimously on 9 April 2026 in Lomé, according to SeneNews. His presence in Phnom Penh is thus part of his duties within the APF, alongside the head of state’s trip.
