Aiming to attract investors to broaden the Kingdom’s manufacturing base and to boost the country’s industrial development, the government is alledgedly preparing a master plan to turn Sihanoukville province into a new special economic zone, said an official.

The advisor to the Cambodian government, Dr Sok Siphana, gave a speech last week addressing the government’s plans to shape Sihanoukville province into a primary hub for trade, logistics and manufacturing. He said that while the master plan, under the responsibility of the Council for the Development of Cambodia, is set to be finalised by 2018, it needs to be carefully planned and executed.

Along with setting up a seaside special economic zone, the master plan aims to enhance the infrastructure of the country’s largest port, National Road 4 and Sihanoukville International Airport.
