More than 50 national and international companies have recently expressed interest in investing in Cambodia’s infrastructure, according to an online meeting between the Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT) and those firms on 07 April.

MPWT Minister HE Sun Chanthol, in response, fully supported and welcomed all investments related to infrastructure. The minister has also committed to working closely with the private sector to further build and expand infrastructure in Cambodia.
