Khazanah Nasional Berhad, a leading investment firm from Brunei Darussalam, has announced plans to explore infrastructure investment opportunities in Cambodia, focusing on health, water resources, transport infrastructure (including railways and airports), and banking.

This initiative was discussed during a meeting between PM Hun Manet and Khazanah’s CEO, Mr. Dato Khairul Hamed, on 19 November 2024.

Mr. Hamed outlined Khazanah’s strategy to diversify its portfolio through projects that align with Cambodia’s development priorities, particularly in key infrastructure sectors.
