Companies from Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Explore Investment Opportunities in Cambodia

A delegation representing the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Economic and Industrial Research Federation met with H.E. Chea Vuthy, Secretary General of the Cambodian Investment Board (CIB), on January 21, 2026, to discuss investment opportunities in Cambodia. 

During the meeting, the CIB Secretary General highlighted the steady growth of investment inflows from China over the past decade, noting that this increase in investment has significantly contributed to Cambodia's socioeconomic development.

Liang Songshou, Chairman of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Economic and Industrial Research Federation, also shared that members of his visiting delegation were intent on investing in Cambodia. 

Over the past year, the Federation has led numerous companies on study tours to Cambodia, seeking to foster an understanding of the investment environment. Songshou added that visiting companies have so far decided to establish factories for the production of tissues and sanitary paper, office supplies, and renewable energy.

H.E. Chea Vuthy recommended members of the delegation to consider establishing a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) focused specifically on paper and office supply production, and also suggested that the companies could produce renewable energy to supply the production needs within that specific zone.

He also suggested the companies consider setting up a production base for raw materials or semi-finished products within Cambodia to support export industries, as well as to explore the high potential of agro-processing investments.

Concluding the meeting, the CIB Secretary General urged members of the Federation to promptly submit their investment registration applications to the CDC to begin benefiting from the opportunities available in Cambodia.
