The Changing Chinese Community in Cambodia

The Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh has a culture strongly affected by its Chinese residents, who comprise a sixth of its population. In recent years, the Chinese population has expanded markedly as investors seek opportunities in the city's real estate or garment industries. However, for each success story, there are several more failures, as well as the complications left in their wake. To ease Chinese investors into the unique business environment of Phnom Penh and reduce the risk of failure, business consultants and committees have sprung up all over the city. In this episode, we take a look at the complex and deepening role of Chinese business in Cambodia.
