World Bank approves $163 million for Cambodia's clean water and sanitation projects The World Bank has approved a $163 million project to support Cambodia's efforts in improving water supply and sanitation services in four provinces, benefiting over 175,000 people. The project aims to contribute to the achievement of the UN's Sustainable Development Goal 6, which targets clean water and sanitation for all by 2030. As of 2022, less than a third of Cambodians had access to a safely managed water supply, and just over a third used safely managed sanitation. The six-year Water Supply and Sanitation Acceleration Project will support government actions to increase access to safe water supply and sanitation, improve the operation and maintenance of existing systems, and ensure the sustainability of services. Additionally, the project will collaborate with private operators to mobilize an additional $17.6 million in private funding to expand water supply services. The Ministry of Industry, Science, Technology & Innovation will oversee water supply activities, while the Ministry of Public Works and Transport will manage urban sanitation activities.

NBC and PBoC sign memorandums of understanding to ensure secure cross-border payments The National Bank of Cambodia and the People's Bank of China have signed two Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) in Beijing to facilitate innovation in the banking and payment systems. The first MoU focuses on cooperation in the areas of financial innovation and payment systems, with the aim of facilitating efficient and secure cross-border payment transactions between the two countries. The second MoU concentrates on establishing clearing and settlement arrangements in Cambodia, enhancing coordination and cooperation to strengthen the capabilities of the Cambodian banking sector in better serving the increasing bilateral trade, investments, and financial flows between the two countries. The MoUs aim to increase the ease of transactions made through digital payment systems and linkages between banks, mobile networks, and payment service providers in the two countries. They also aim to minimize the risks associated with bilateral cross-border small- and medium-sized trading and financing, thereby driving more cross-border trades and stimulating higher growth of trade transaction volumes and scales bilaterally between Cambodia and China.

Construction of a new international airport passes 55% The construction of Techo International Airport (TIA) in Cambodia is nearly complete, with the first phase expected to finish by the end of 2024 and operations scheduled to commence in mid-2025. The project, designed to meet international standards and facilitate direct flights from distant countries, is anticipated to open in the first half of 2025. Construction began in 2019, and the first phase is projected to conclude by mid-2024. The Pacific Asia Tourism Association (PATA) Cambodia Chapter is optimistic that TIA will accommodate the increasing number of international tourists and offer direct flights from countries worldwide. Between January and September 2022, the country's three international airports collectively welcomed 3,685,354 passengers, reflecting a remarkable 162% increase from the previous year.

The pioneer of solar automobiles in Cambodia anticipates exporting energy to Singapore Cambodia's first solar car, developed by Kong Pharith, is in the design stage for production. Pharith believes that solar cars can be manufactured once the solar cell achieves a 60-70% efficiency in converting solar power to electricity. The Cambodian government plans to increase solar farms to match economic growth, with the private sector also involved. Pharith hopes that the government will increasingly rely on solar energy in the future. The country's solar power target is expected to be achieved by 2050, with the percentage of solar power in Cambodia's total energy mix projected to rapidly increase to 3,155 MW by 2040. Investment in clean energy has experienced a 12 percent growth since 2020, partly due to increased public and private support for sustainable finance. (Source: Khmer Times)
