Multiple Airport Projects Underpin Cambodia’s Growth Hopes
Local investors are turning to Chinese firms to develop three new gateway airports to major Cambodian population centers.

Plans to build a second international airport at Cambodia’s capital are slowly coming to fruition after authorities shortlisted three Chinese firms to participate in the final bidding for the $1.5 billion mega-project. Speaking with AIN on Thursday, Cambodian State Secretariat of Civil Aviation (SSCA) senior deputy director Sinn Chanserey Vutha said that while five companies had expressed interest, three will move forward in the application process, adding that planners had completed more than 60 percent of the design concept.
