Economy and Industry
The service industry is expected to overtake agriculture as Cambodia's largest sector by GDP In place of industry and agriculture, according to the gross domestic product (GDP) composition, the service sector is predicted to overtake them as Cambodia's largest sector, according to Prime Minister Hun Sen. The Prime Minister stated on 27 June 2023 at a gathering of garment workers in Phnom Penh that "with the arrival of foreign tourists, the service sector will expectedly increase and share the largest composition of Cambodia's GDP." With 38% of the GDP of the nation's GDP last year, the industry sector had the biggest proportion, followed by the service sector and the agricultural sector with 35% and 21%, respectively.

Thailand imports from Cambodia increased 10% to $480 million In the first five months of this year, Cambodia exported goods worth $480 million to Thailand, a 10% increase over the same period last year, according to a data from the General Department of Customs and Excise. In the first five months of 2023, Thailand's exports to Cambodia fell by 14% to $1,400 million. While Thai imports into Cambodia fell, it can see that exports from Cambodia to Thailand rose significantly in the first five months of 2023. This suggests that Cambodia's economy is continuing to grow significantly, particularly in the industrial and agricultural sectors, which are crucial for the country's economic expansion.

A sub-decree on investment law expands the economic opportunity The recently signed sub-decree enacting Cambodia's new investment law enhances Cambodia's appeal to investors and clears the way for its aspirations to join the "high-income" group by 2050 and become a "upper-middle income" economy by 2030. A number of the new law's aspects, such as those relating to incentives, streamlined registration procedures, technology use, and human resource capability, will help to entice more investors to Cambodia. Between August 5, 1994 and December 31, 2021, Cambodia received $41 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI), according to a report by the CDC and NBC. (Source: The Phnom Penh Post)
