PHNOM PENH (Vietnam News/ANN): Vietnamese Ambassador to Cambodia Nguyen Minh Vu held a working session with Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and First Vice Chairman of the Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC) Sun Chanthol in Phnom Penh on October 2 to bolster economic and investment ties.
Vu highlighted Cambodia’s status as one of the earliest destinations for Vietnam’s overseas investments, noting that Vietnamese firms have poured nearly US$3 billion into over 200 projects, or about 12% of Vietnam’s total outward investment. Roughly 75% of that capital is concentrated in Cambodia’s agriculture sector.
