“We are in the process of finalising the inter-model transport connectivity and logistic system. Over 300 logistic projects have been identified. Therefore, we urge development partners to participate in the financing and investing in these projects,” said HE Sun Chanthol.

He added that the masterplan aims to make Cambodian become a regional logistic hub in the near future.

The minister also said that none of the infrastructure development in Cambodia is delayed due to the pandemic.

“COVID-19 has brought uncertainty to many countries. Some governments even shut down businesses, causing delays to many infrastructure projects. However, in Cambodia, all 10 major road construction projects, two airports, and one major bridge are being built without delay,” said HE Sun.
