投資家をサポートし、より多くの投資をカンボジアに呼び込みたい。
先ごろカンボジア政府は、貿易促進とカンボジアの競争力を強化する為、輸出入検査機関の改革を行いました。この改革により、投資家や貿易業者は、より多くのメリットを享受することができます。
改革の内容は以下の通り:
商業省管轄のカンボジア独自の輸出入検査業務(カムコントロール)を国境や経済特別地区など各チェックポイントから撤廃すること。
通関における輸出入検査業務を実施する権限を与えられた唯一の機関は経済財務省のカンボジア関税総局とする。
カンボジアはあらゆる投資家を歓迎します!
カンボジアのフン・セン首相は、国内外の投資家は差別を受けることなく投資ができると述べた。あらゆる投資家に是非カンボジアへ来て欲しいと呼びかけた。
カンボジアでは外資100%出資による法人設立が可能であることや、企業が獲得した利益も配当も自由に国外送金できる。現在の経済政策はフン・セノミクス政策、または常に輝いているという意味の「スターシリウス政策」です。
フン・セン首相はカンボジアすべての省庁、機関、関係当局に向け、手続きや法律文書を丁寧に説明、紹介し、円滑に進める手助けをすることで、投資家が安心して、温かい気持ちをもって、積極的に投資してもらえるよう努めてほしいと呼びかけた。
