Economy and Industry

To complete unfinished projects in Sihanoukville, $1B is required The Cambodian government is planning to invest at least $1 billion in completing unfinished buildings in the coastal city of Sihanoukville, following a standstill in real estate and related businesses due to the Covid-19 pandemic in 2019. The government plans to develop over 360 projects in the province into a model multi-purpose special economic zone, as set out in the Cambodian Industrial Development Policy 2015-2025. The working group is working on classifying unfinished projects into different categories before implementing project zoning to guide re-investors. The government also has incentive policies for existing investors who can continue construction until completion. The government plans to expand national roads, such as the $2 billion Phnom Penh-Sihanoukville Expressway, to support the implementation of the master plan. (Source: Khmer Times)

Cambodia-India trade rises 7% despite the global economic downturn Cambodia and India have seen a 6.6% year-on-year increase in trade volume, reaching $306.9 million in the first eight months of 2023. Exports to India rose 38.7% to $161.4 million, while imports fell 15.1% to $145.6 million. The Kingdom experienced a trade surplus of $15.8 million. In August, bilateral trade between the two countries totalled $38.4 million, with Cambodia exporting $20.4 million worth of goods and imports rising 14.1% to $15.8 million. The increase in Cambodia's exports is largely due to agricultural products, with both countries' production capacity increasing. Direct flights between Cambodia and India are expected to start early 2024, boosting tourism, trade, and investment. In 2022, trade turnover between the two countries reached $440 million, up 41.4% from $311.24 million in 2021. (Source: The Phnom Penh Post)
