Mon, 18 January 2021
Bilateral trade volume between Cambodia and South Korea amounted to $884.88 million in 2020, down 17.77 per cent from $1.032 billion in 2019, according to data from the Korea International Trade Association (KITA).
According to the data, Cambodia exported $317 million of goods to the South Korean market last year, a drop of 5.4 per cent, while Korean exports to the Kingdom totaled $567 million, down 18.6 per cent from $696 million in 2019.
Cambodian Chamber of Commerce vice-president Lim Heng said declines in exports were due to fallout from the Covid-19 outbreak.
However, he expects Cambodia’s exports to recover when the Cambodia-South Korea Bilateral Free Trade Agreement (FTA) eventually takes effect. The two sides held a fourth round of FTA talks in November last year, and negotiations are expected to be completed this year.
