The Prime Minister made a speech wherein he ensured that government involvement in the free market would not affect the spirit of competition. He said that the government acts as a consultant and provider of various support such as infrastructure, finance and technology.

"The Royal Government has actively tried to negotiate with friendly countries to re-export Cambodian agricultural products, including free trade agreements in both bilateral and multilateral frameworks,” he said.

The Prime Minister said that the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries and the Ministry of Commerce have played an important role in promoting Cambodian products and agricultural products to foreign markets and finding new ways to attract foreign agricultural investors.
