PhilCham Welcomes Philippine President's Visit to Cambodia, Anticipating Boost in Economic Ties

The Philippine Chamber of Commerce & Business Association in Cambodia (PhilCham Cambodia) warmly welcomes the upcoming state visit of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to the Kingdom of Cambodia on September 7–9, 2025. This visit comes at a pivotal moment, as Cambodia and the Philippines approach the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations in 2027, and continue to deepen cooperation under the ASEAN framework.

PhilCham Cambodia states that it believes the President’s visit will serve as a catalyst for expanding bilateral trade, investment, and tourism. Cambodia’s dynamic growth in agriculture, manufacturing, and hospitality presents complementary opportunities for Philippine expertise in agribusiness, services, and technology. Likewise, Philippine products, talent, and innovations can find a receptive market in Cambodia’s fast-developing economy.

The recent engagements between Filipino and Cambodian business leaders—both in Manila and Phnom Penh—have already laid the groundwork for joint ventures, supply chain integration, and knowledge exchange. The chamber anticipates that this visit will further encourage private-sector partnerships, promote sustainable investment, and open new channels for people-to-people exchange, which is the foundation of lasting economic ties.

PhilCham Cambodia says it stands ready to work alongside both governments and the business community to translate the goodwill generated by this visit into concrete projects that will benefit the people, strengthen ASEAN economic integration, and contribute to regional stability and prosperity.
