Vietnam’s deep-water links spur Phnom Penh Port growth
Vietnam’s Cai Mep port has contributed to a growth in shipments from the Phnom Penh Autonomous Port this year, Cambodian officials say. The Vietnamese deep-water port, near Ho Chi Minh City, allows cargo to be transferred to ships travelling to more distant markets such as the European Union. This linkage had spurred a 30 per cent rise in cargo transactions through PPAP compared with the first half of 2010, Eang Veng Sun said.
