PHNOM PENH, Cambodia - Cambodia's prime minister said Monday that nearly all of the impoverished country's 14 million people will have access to electricity by 2013.

By 2009, only about 25 percent of the population had regular access to electricity, and prices remain among the highest in the world.

"After 2013, the supply of electricity might not be enough for all people, but almost all will have access to electricity," Prime Minister Hun Sen said while inaugurating a bridge on the outskirts of the capital, Phnom Penh.
