KOTRA encouraging Korean investment in auto parts in Cambodia Korea Trade Investment Promotion Agency (KORTA) is encouraging more Korean investors to do business in Cambodia, especially in the field of vehicle spare-parts. Yu Jeoung Yeol, president of KOTRA, said the the Cambodia-Korea Free Trade Agreement (CKFTA) will boost trade between the two countries. Currently, more than 200 South Korean firms invest in Cambodia, he said. Tan Monivann, vice-president of the Cambodia Chamber of Commerce, said the call for investment comes at a time when the government is preparing a roadmap for the development of the automotive and electronics sectors, which is expected to increase its capacity exponentially in the coming years.

More than 10,000 new business established in 2022 Cambodia issued operating licenses to 10,701 new companies in 2022, an increase of 39% from 7,677 firms in 20221, according to the ministry of commerce (MOC). The new firms are owned by locals and foreigners from China, South Korea, Japan, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam, among others, said MOC spokesman Penn Sovicheat. He attributed the growth of new companies to the successful control of the COVID-19 pandemic that has allowed the country to resume all socio-economic activities and to reopen its borders since November 2021. He expressed his confidence that more Chinese people will come to do businesses in Cambodia after China's optimization of its COVID-19 strategy early this month. (Source: Khmer Times)
