Technical and vocational training is also being strengthened to meet industry demand for skilled workers and improve overall competitiveness.\n\nOfficial data show that by October 2025, Cambodia had approved 579 new investment projects worth a total of US$9.2 billion, expected to create about 400,000 additional jobs.
