It aims to establish a cooperation framework to promote bilateral trade and economic and trade cooperation, especially within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative, strengthen trade delegations and trade docking between Cambodia and Hong Kong enterprises, and promote Hong Kong's advantages to Cambodia enterprises.

The theme of this forum is "Building a new Silk Road for connectivity, innovation and green", and the first "green special chapter" is set up, covering green construction, green innovation and green finance.

Liu Huiping, Vice President of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, said in an interview with Hong Kong China Communications Commission that the Trade Development Council attaches great importance to promoting the green development of the "Belt and Road", and in recent years, many projects along the "Belt and Road" have shifted to green and low-carbon development.

As the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" initiative enters the next golden decade, enterprises will become faster in their pace of "going out", and the top priority is to solve the three major problems of legal, financial and cultural differences. Liu Huiping said that the Trade Development Bureau hopes to play the role of a "contact person" to provide a platform for investors and companies around the world to come to Hong Kong to find the professional services and solutions they need.
