In the eyes of most people, their impression of Cambodia only remains on the world cultural heritage of Angkor Wat. Today, with the steady advancement of the “One Belt, One Road” initiative, trade and investment between China and Cambodia are maintaining strong growth.

At present, China has become Cambodia’s largest trading partner and source of foreign investment, and the annual number of tourists visiting Cambodia will exceed 2 million. The “Belt and Road” cooperation has brought new development opportunities to Cambodia.

Southeast Asia’s last investment hotspot—Cambodia

As an important node of the "Belt and Road" Maritime Silk Road, Cambodia is located in the Indochina Peninsula and is a member of ASEAN. It borders Thailand to the northwest, Laos to the northeast, Vietnam to the southeast, and faces the Gulf of Siam to the south. It has a very advantageous geographical location. In 1993, with the establishment of Cambodian national authorities and the realization of national reconciliation, Cambodia entered a new era of peace and rapid development.

In recent years, Cambodia has become the best value investment base in Asia favored by international capital. It has an average annual rapid and stable economic growth of more than 7%, a real estate investment return of 8-15%, a large influx of overseas investment, a superior geographical location in the core of ASEAN, and in-depth cooperation with the Chinese economy. The policy dividends of the "One Belt and One Road" have contributed to the continuous improvement and upgrading of its infrastructure.

Not only that, the future development space is even more worth looking forward to. The Cambodian government adopts a fully open investment policy, no foreign exchange controls, enjoys preferential tariffs, low investment thresholds, and the golden demographic dividend of an average age of less than 30 years old. Cambodia has become one of the models of economic success in the world, not only bringing tangible benefits to the Cambodian people, but also prompting more and more Chinese investors to flock to Cambodia to look for investment opportunities.
