The Council for the Development of Cambodia approves thirteen projects set to generate thousands of jobs and diversify the national economy

Cambodia is poised for a significant economic boost following the approval of thirteen new investment projects valued at approximately $323 million. This development was highlighted during the 18th One-Stop Service Meeting of 2025, which focused on reviewing and approving applications for Qualified Investment Projects. Led by His Excellency Chea Vuthy, Secretary General of the Investment Committee of Cambodia, the meeting held on December 19, 2025, underscored the nation’s growing appeal as a destination for diverse industrial activities.

According to His Excellency Chea Vuthy, these ventures are expected to create roughly 7,000 new jobs for the local workforce, further strengthening the social and economic fabric of the country. The scope of these projects is notably broad, with twelve industrial initiatives covering the production of cosmetics, the assembly of electrical equipment, and the manufacturing of textiles and dyed fabrics. Additionally, the approvals include plans for kitchenware production, vehicle assembly, and the manufacture of noodles and related food seasonings.

The diversification continues into specialized manufacturing, such as camping equipment, sports gear, pest control products, and one infrastructure project (development of a 150 MW wind power generation station), reflecting Cambodia’s ability to cater to varied global market demands. Beyond the industrial sector, the service economy is also expected to see growth with the inclusion of a tourism-focused project aimed at constructing a new hotel. These collective efforts signify a robust end to the year for the Council for the Development of Cambodia as it continues to streamline its administrative processes to attract high-value investments.

The 13 investment projects above are located in Kandal, Takeo, Kampong Speu, Kampong Chhnang, Battambang, and Mondulkiri provinces.

Conclude that in the last eleven months of 2025, Cambodia continued to receive 609 new projects with an investment capital of $9.5 billion, representing a 220-project increase, equivalent to approximately 57%. (read more)
