USA: Cambodian Garment Industry Wins Export Boost
The United States has increased Cambodia's garment export quota to the US market by 15 per cent, largely because of improvements in factory working conditions, the Cambodian commerce minister revealed today. Cham Prasidh announced on Thursday that earlier this week he had signed a three-year renewal of an existing textile agreement- unique in how it links labour conditions with trade to the US - with the US Ambassador to Cambodia, Kent Wiedemann.
