The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and the Cambodia-China Free Trade Agreement (CCFTA), which were both enacted in 2022, have played a major role in boosting Cambodia’s economy, according to Cambodia’s Ministry of Commerce (MoC). Cambodia's total export to RCEP members was worth $3.28 billion during January-June 2022 — a 10 per cent increase compared to the same period the previous year.“The two free trade agreements have given larger market access to Cambodia's products,” said Bun Chanthy, undersecretary of state at Cambodia’s MoC.
