ISTANBUL : <\/strong>Cambodia has asked Turkey for investments in agriculture, storage, and processing facilities for exports to the EU and other countries in order to increase bilateral trade to around $1 billion.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen and Turkey’s Minister for Agriculture and Forestry Vahit Kirisci met in the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh to discuss bilateral relations and ways to boost bilateral investment.<\/p>\n

Kirisci is leading a Turkish delegation to Phnom Penh for a two-day Turkey-Cambodia Joint Economic Commission (JEC) meeting, which includes Turkish lawmaker Serap Yasar.<\/p>\n

Sen invited Turkish investors to invest in Cambodian processing units by establishing a network to purchase produce from Cambodian farmers and construct storage facilities in order to increase exports to Turkey and other countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Kingdom of Cambodia and the Republic of T\u00fcrkiye will strengthen the already-signed cooperation agreements and expand their bilateral cooperation to many other potential sectors,\u201d Cambodian state-run AKP News reported.<\/p>\n

Eang Sophalleth, the Cambodian premier\u2019s personal assistant, said: \u201cThe potential areas for Cambodia-T\u00fcrkiye cooperation include agriculture, agricultural processing for export, aquaculture, agricultural machinery, construction, IT, food processing and halal food, education, direct flight, and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vahit Kirisci was \u201cpositive that with the expansion of cooperation between the two countries, the bilateral trade volume will reach US$1,000 million a year,\u201d the report added.<\/p>\n

Bilateral trade<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the last five years, bilateral trade between the two transcontinental nations has increased to $462.63 million until 2021. The trade volume in the first 11 months of last year reached $136.149 million, a 63.6% increase year on year.<\/p>\n

Sen also said the two sides should \u201cconsider the double taxation agreement to encourage more investors.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was last February that Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and his Cambodian counterpart Prak Sokhonn signed an \u201cAgreement on the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two nations established diplomatic relations on Nov. 7, 1959.<\/p>\n

After his meeting with Sen, Kirisci said on Twitter: \u201cWe will continue to work in the same spirit of brotherhood with Cambodia, a friendly and brotherly country, to increase and develop the cooperation between the two countries.\u201d<\/p>\n

‘Strategic gateway’ to the EU and other markets<\/p>\n

Cambodian businesses see T\u00fcrkiye \u201cas a strategically-placed gateway for domestic firms to penetrate into EU and other nearby markets,\u201d according to the daily Phnom Penh Post.<\/p>\n

In the run-up to the two-day JEC meeting starting Tuesday, Cambodia\u2019s Ministry of Commerce along with 14 relevant inter-ministerial institutions had last week discussed \u201chow to best benefit from Cambodia-T\u00fcrkiye bilateral relations, in line with the post-COVID-19 economic recoveries of both nations.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the ministry, the discussions covered a number of priority areas, including trade, investment, business, industry, science, technology, and innovation; halal affairs; small and medium-sized enterprises; agriculture; transportation; civil aviation; health; education; and tourism.<\/p>\n

Lim Heng, vice-president of the Cambodia Chamber of Commerce, \u201chailed T\u00fcrkiye as a promising market for Cambodian goods and a potential springboard to access other European and Asian markets.\u201d<\/p>\n

Calling T\u00fcrkiye an \u201ceconomic hub,\u201d he said: \u201cThe two countries have laid foundations for the expansion of bilateral economic ties.\u201d<\/p>\n

Striking an optimistic note to build on the agreement reached between Sen and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Heng said: \u201cWe can look further to boosting economic cooperation. Turkish investors have great potential to come and invest more in Cambodia. They have urged the Cambodian Chamber of Commerce to help further the trade ties.\u201d<\/p>\n
