Phnom Penh, April 11, 2024 --Cambodia’s economy is forecast to grow at 5.8 percent in 2024 and 6.0 percent in 2025, fueled by a further rebound in tourism and strong manufacturing prospects, according to the latest edition of the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) flagship economic report released on April 11."Despite global economic challenges, Cambodia’s economy performed well in 2023,” said ADB Country Director for Cambodia Ms. Jyotsana Varma. “We expect growth to be robust in 2024-2025, with the garments, footwear, and travel goods (GFT) sector poised for a significant upturn building on the positive momentum during the last quarter of 2023.”The Asian Development Outlook (ADO) April 2024 estimated growth of 5.0 percent in 2023, driven by a robust recovery in tourism and solid activity in manufacturing outside the GFT sector. The report forecasts continuing economic expansion in 2024–2025, supported by stronger export-oriented manufacturing. It also expects inflation, which averaged 2.1 percent in 2023 mainly on falling global energy prices, to remain low at around 2.0 percent over the next two years.The government aims for gradual fiscal consolidation from 2024 to rebuild pandemic-diminished reserves. Yet, challenges such as potential global economic slowdowns, rising private debt, fluctuating energy prices, and climate vulnerabilities could impact the outlook longer-term.“These challenges add layers of complexity to Cambodia’s economic narrative,” said Ms. Varma. “But, the country is moving ahead with cautious optimism.”The report also discusses Cambodia’s strategic preparations to graduate from the least-developed country (LDC) category, as designated by the United Nations, in 2027. It notes that graduation will improve the country’s international standing and investment attractiveness, but simultaneously pose challenges from reduced access to concessional financing and preferential trade treatments that propel sectors contributing to high growth and employment.To effectively navigate this transition, the report stresses the importance of Cambodia enhancing its global economic integration, diversifying markets, focusing on higher value-added products, investing in sustainable infrastructure and human capital, and strengthening domestic resource mobilisation.Recently, Cambodia was ranked by Seasia Stats as the fastest growing economy in Southeast Asia, and third in Asia in 2024 by basing on the International Monetary Fund (IMF)’s October 2023 Outlook and January 2024 update, which forecasted Cambodia’s economic growth at 6.1 percent this year.For the government side, Cambodian economy remains robust with a projected growth rate of 6.6 percent in 2024, up from 5.6 percent last year, while the World Bank has forecasted that the Kingdom’s economy would grow at 5.8 percent this year.

Phnom Penh 11-04-2024The Ministry of Industry, Science, Technology & Innovation hosted a groundbreaking ceremony for the Svay Rieng Water Supply System Expansion Project on April 11, 2024 to bolster clean water access in Svay Rieng Province. The project is funded by a Japanese grant of over USD 30 million via Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), which marks another key moment for the development of clean water infrastructure in Svay Rieng province.The groundbreaking ceremony was presided over by H.E. Hem Vanndy, Minister of Industry, Science, Technology & Innovation, and H.E. UENO Atsushi, Ambassador of Japan to Cambodia, with the participation of about 600 individuals, including representatives from MISTI, relevant ministries-institutions, Embassy of Japan in Cambodia, JICA, Kitakyushu City Administration, Svay Rieng Provincial Administration, Svay Rieng Provincial Department of Industry, Science, Technology & Innovation, local authorities, and communities.Svay Rieng Province has witnessed notable developmental in recent years, with advancements in physical infrastructure and robust economic and social progress. Amidst this growth, the demand for clean water has steadily risen. Svay Rieng City, serviced by the Svay Rieng Water Supply Authority, has faced challenges due to limited water production capacity—just 4,800 cubic meters per day, catering to just over 20,000 people, approximately 40% of the population in 2017.In response to the increasing demand for clean water for various purposes, including daily consumption, business, and industrial needs in the province, MISTI sought assistance from the Government of Japan to initiate the construction of a new water supply system expansion.As a result, the Japanese government, through JICA, has provided a grant of approximately 3.986 million yen or 30.6 million US dollars to implement the project, scheduled to span 23 months from February 2024 to December 2025.The project encompasses a raw water pumping station with a capacity of 7,480 m3/day, a 2.9 km raw water pipeline, a water treatment plant capable of processing 6,800 m3/day, and a water supply network spanning 110 km. Additionally, 375 home connections will be established, along with the construction of a 22m x 17.7m administrative building.Upon completion, the Svay Rieng Water Supply Authority is expected to elevate its water production capacity to 22,600 m3/day, serving a distribution network of 236.64 km. This expansion is anticipated to provide quality, safe and sustainable clean water access to more than 117,530 individuals residing in Svay Rieng City and Svay Chrum District by the end of 2025. The project will contribute to the Svay Rieng Water Supply Authority's achievement of the government's target of "expanding the city's water supply to 100% of the people by 2025 to serve the basic needs of the people as well as for production and service sectors.”The Svay Rieng Water Supply System Expansion Project underscores the government’s commitment to enhancing the well-being of citizens, driving socio-economic progress, and fostering an environment conducive to attracting investment to Svay Rieng Province.

date_range 09-Apr-2024

Are you having a hard time falling asleep? We will introduce you to 5 effective sleep management methods to help you get a good night's sleep.1. Go to bed regularly: Sleeping on time is a good habit for sleeping. Most people gather late at night on the weekends. However, it would be best if you tried to get extra sleep for one or two hours to keep your immune system healthy. Adhering to this habit regularly can help you maintain good sleep habits.2. Do not use phones or electronic devices while sleeping: Recent studies have shown that using electronic devices before going to bed is stealing our sleep and reducing the quality of our sleep. But a survey by the Sleep Foundation found that about 89% of adults and 75% of children have at least one electronic device in their bedroom.3. Turn off the lights: The first requirement for a good night's sleep is the perfect atmosphere in the bedroom. Darkness makes it easy for you to fall asleep, therefore you should turn off the lights in the room.4. Meditation: meditation is an anti-stress technique for many years. Lately, meditation is no longer a religious image! Meditation is considered to be a popular anti-stress and anti-insomnia method.5. Listen to music: Listening to music at a slow rate of 60 to 80 beats per minute will effectively get you to sleep quickly and satisfactorily. Not only that, but it can also help reduce stress levels as well.
