Council for the Development of Cambodia Cambodian Investment Board Secretary-General Chea Vuthy chaired the meeting, which was attended by representatives from relevant ministries, institutions and provincial administrations.

The proposed investments are expected to boost economic activity and employment, though the CDC announcement did not specify the projects’ sectors, locations or individual investment values.
