CDC seeks to bolster Japanese investments

The secretary-general of the Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) requested assistance for capacity building during a meeting with a visiting delegation of Japanese officials.

He urged greater cooperation for technical support and sought to promote investment opportunities in the Kingdom for Japanese businesses.
