Agreement on air transportation service signed by Switzerland and Cambodia The Federal Office of Civil Aviation in Switzerland and the State Secretariat of Civil Aviation in Cambodia have partnered to provide flight services between the two nations. On May 23, 2023, Francine Zimmermann, Director-General of Switzerland's Federal Office of Civil Aviation, and Mao Havannall, Minister in Charge of SSCA, signed the MoU in Zurich, Switzerland. The Cambodian anticipates that additional flights between the two nations and from other friendly nations will be more economical due to the country's accessibility to airports when the Techo International Airport opens in early 2025. Cambodia could benefit from tourism, investment, and the holding of significant international conferences thanks to the first international high-ranking 4F runway. (Source: Khmer Times)
