Vietnamese and Cambodian businesses have signed investment agreements and contracts worth US$6 billion to invest in power generation, food processing, fertilizer production, rubber plantation and health care in Cambodia.
The deals were signed at a conference held in HCM City on December 26 to promote Vietnamese investment in Cambodia. The event was co-chaired by Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung and his Cambodian counterpart Hun Sen, and co-hosted by the Vietnamese Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) and the Cambodian Development Council (CDC).
It was reported at the conference that both countries have signed more than 60 documents for bilateral cooperation in almost all areas, and established appropriate mechanisms to facilitate cooperation.
Two-way trade has increased significantly in recent years, reaching US$1.7 billion in 2008, up 40 percent against 2007.
