Invest in Special Economic Zones in Cambodia

2011-11-09T06:37:00.002+07:00

The Royal Government of Cambodia recognises that Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are an important part of the country’s economic development because they bring infrastructure, jobs, skills, enhanced productivity and not least the prospect of poverty reduction in rural areas. Location of the SEZs is vitally important so that the benefits in terms of increased employment and poverty reduction can be shared throughout Cambodia. It is the policy of the Royal Government to lay production foundations in regions other than Phnom Penh in order to build economic linkages between urban and rural areas. Cambodia is not an urbanised society and so the SEZs will provide employment for the country’s labour force which is predominantly from the provinces and mainly women. Read More

Investment in Property

2010-11-12T08:48:00.001+07:00

Between 2006 and 2008, property prices in Cambodia skyrocketed. By 2009 they had plummeted back to earth; furthermore several major projects were put on hold or cancelled, including the planned International Finance Complex. At the height of the madness, prices for prime land in Phnom Penh reached $5,000 per square metre; Siem Reap reached $1,000 per square metre, and beach front land in Sihanoukville experienced similar rises.

By the end of 2009, prime land prices in Phnom Penh were down to around $2,700 per square metre and in residential areas prices were around $1,600 per square metre, down by 30-40 per cent. While many investors and speculators were local; a significant number were foreign. This in turn required mechanisms being put in place to hold title to land in a country where there is a constitutional prohibition of foreign ownership. Local partners are required to hold 51 per cent of the shares of companies established to hold title (Land Holding Companies). Various ‘protection’ documents are then executed to protect the equity interest of the foreign investor and limit the liability/obligation of the local shareholders. This way of acquiring land is the most commonly utilised method by foreign investors currently in Cambodia. Read More
