It is easy to remit money to most of overseas in addition to the merits that we can set up a 100%-foreign company except some exceptions and that there are few restrictions in foreign investment like Singapore. Furthermore, the fact which it has continued more than 7% economic growth for years and low labor costs are accelerating the expansion of foreign businesses to Cambodia.

Comparison of the merits to set up a company in each country:
