Cambodia expects export growth between 9.4% and 18% due to the RCEP agreement, contributing to national economic growth between 2% and 3.8%. (Source: Khmer Times)

EU-ABC commits to assist the Kingdom in pursuing its 5G goals The EU-ASEAN Business Council (EU-ABC) and European Chamber of Commerce (EuroCham) in Cambodia have partnered to boost investment ties between the EU and Cambodia, particularly in the development of 5G technology and network infrastructure. The meeting was attended by Chea Vandeth, Minister of Post and Telecommunications, who met with Jens Ruebbert, Chairman of the EU-ABC, and a delegation of entrepreneurs and investors. The delegation included European Union companies exploring investment opportunities in Cambodia, particularly in post, telecommunications, and digital technologies.

$50 billion logistics project master plan revealed Deputy Prime Minister Sun Chanthol of Cambodia has announced a $50 billion master plan for the country's transport and logistics sectors, which includes 174 projects. The plan was revealed during the China-Cambodia Cooperation Forum 2023, organized by the Global Logistics Alliance. Chanthol highlighted Cambodia's economic growth and its workforce under 25, a valuable resource for investment firms. The two countries have also outlined an action plan for building a "community of common destiny in the new era 2024-28", covering sectors like economy, trade, politics, and culture. The Cambodian transport sector requires more foreign capital, particularly from countries like China, to meet domestic and international demands. Modernization in the transport sector is essential, as the current infrastructure is insufficient. (Source: The Phnom Penh Post)
