flag Cambodia's 2025 growth slows to 5.2% due to U.S. tariffs, closed border with Thailand, and supply chain issues, but long-term outlook remains strong.

flag Cambodia's 2025 economic growth is projected to slow to 5.2% due to U.S. tariffs, a closed border with Thailand that cut bilateral trade by over 90%, and disrupted supply chains. flag The IMF forecasts 4.8% growth in 2025 and 4% in 2026, citing weakened tourism, remittances, and domestic demand. flag Despite short-term pressures, officials say underlying momentum remains strong from exports and consumption. flag The government plans a 7.8% budget increase to $10 billion in 2026 for infrastructure, social protection, and reforms. flag A pilot visa-free program for Chinese tourists in 2026 may boost tourism, while trade agreements like RCEP and the Cambodia-China FTA are seen as key to long-term resilience. flag Experts view the downturn as temporary, driven by external shocks rather than structural weakness.
