Cambodia's growth to reach 2.2 per cent this year, 4.5 per cent in 2021, says World Bank


PHNOM PENH, Dec. 9 (Xinhua): Cambodia's economic growth is projected to reach 2.2 percent in 2021, impeded by slow growth in services including tourism, and in construction and real estate, the World Bank said in a press release on Thursday.

Other traditional growth drivers, especially the garment, travel goods, footwear, and bicycle manufacturing industries, as well as agriculture, are underpinning the economic recovery, the bank said.
