After many delays due to the COVID-19 social distancing advice, the Cambodian Constructors Association (CCA) has decided to cancel the kingdom’s biggest annual construction exhibition for the year 2020 and has scheduled it for late 2021, according to a recent CCA announcement.

The CCA has set 2-4 December 2021 as the date for its yearly Cambodia Construction Industry Expo which showcases thousands of products from hundreds of booths of local and international companies.

The event serves as a platform for the participant to share ideas, challenges, and businesses approach to overcome the COVID-19 crisis.

Established in 2011, CCA has been operating as a privately-run association that serves to promote the construction industry in Cambodia. Every three years, CCA elect its board members who will work to uplift the organization. The election is done through a vote from all participating CCA members.

Currently, Neak Oknha Pung Keav Se, Chairman of Canadia Bank and Overseas Cambodia Investment Corporation (OCIC) sits as CCA Chairman and to date he has been served in this position for three mandates.

For the business network event, CCA Secretariat General Manager Mr Chhiv Sivpheng said it will provide an opportunity for businesses to reconnect with each other and he hopes that the COVID-19 situation will improve soon so the business can return to normal.

He said CCA will inform members of the date for the election and business networking at a later time.
