Cambodia is falling behind its competitors in the key garment and tourism sectors, an economist from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) warned this week.
ADB analysts gathered at group headquarters in Phnom Penh to discuss their Asian Development Outlook Report 2010, which was released during Khmer New Year and predicted 4.5% GDP growth for the kingdom this year.
During the press conference, senior country economist Eric Sidgwick said Cambodia must increase competitiveness in the region as it begins to recover from the global economic crisis in order to move to the "next [economic] level".
