The scale of Cambodia’s economic acceleration is best captured by the numbers. In the first five months of 2026, the Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) approved fixed-asset investments totaling a staggering US$3.26 billion. This surge represents a significant leap forward, showcasing a diversified portfolio of projects ranging from manufacturing and energy to large-scale infrastructure.
