This statement was made during the Cambodia-Korea Business Forum (CKBF) in Seoul, attended by over 300 investors from 198 companies. From the Cambodian side, Deputy PM Sun Chanthol and Sok Chenda, NBC Governor Chea Serey, and CCC President Kith Meng were amongst the officials representing the country. The CKFTA, signed in December 2022, was highlighted as a key facilitator for Korean investment and trade in Cambodia. The forum concluded with the signing of 4 MoUs, involving institutions like JB Financial Group, KB Kookmin Bank, Woori Bank, and the Korea Credit Bureau. These MoUs aim to enhance cross-border payments, remittances for migrant workers, and credit report sharing. (Source: Khmer Times)

Chinese delegation tours Cambodia's aquaculture practices Representatives from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries (MAFF) hosted Chinese agricultural specialists from Shanghai Ocean University to promote integrated rice-fish and rice-shrimp farming systems in Cambodia. Led by Thay Somony, director at MAFF, the delegation toured provinces to support the 'Fish and Rice Corridor' initiative aimed at boosting bilateral agricultural trade. The team provided training to over 30 farmers on rice-shrimp farms in Takeo province and assessed prior projects. Professor Wu Xugan highlighted the need for infrastructure improvements, such as better water reservoirs to enhance yields. Currently, Cambodia aquaculture remains small-scale with limited skills, resulting in low productivity and high costs. (Source: Khmer Times)
