The Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) approved 31 new investment and production expansion projects in October, with a combined capital exceeding $226 million.
The projects, expected to create 16,000 jobs, include factories for shoes, decorations, household goods, camping accessories, beverages, bags, agro-industrial products, car accessories, furniture, chemicals and mining, as well as a shopping mall, a CDC press release said.

It’s been five years since we launched The Cambodia Daily Khmer — an online platform dedicated to Khmer-language speakers.
The work requires an annual budget of $100,000 to pay reporters, photographers, editors and web hosting fees. Faced with a substantial annual shortfall, we are left with little choice but to ask you, our dedicated readers and supporters, for help. Independent Cambodian voices are now more essential than ever. Please consider giving.
