PHNOM PENH: The negative impacts of US tariffs and the effects of the armed conflict along the Thai border have led to several challenges for Cambodia’s economic trajectory. The Ministry of Economy and Finance has reduced its economic growth forecast for 2025 to just 5.0%, down from the original estimate of 6.3%.
A report titled “Results of the First-Half Budget Implementation and Evaluation of the Financial Law Implementation for 2025”, published by the ministry last weekend, stated that the global economic environment remains surrounded by uncertainty and is evolving rapidly.
