“The Kampong Chhnang Multipurpose Port, to be located along the Tonle Sap River, will have a handling capacity of up to 2 million tonnes of cargo annually. Meanwhile, the Kampot Logistic Port is designed to handle around 3 million tonnes per year. Both facilities will support international vessels and enable cargo handling, transhipment, and the movement of containers and bulk goods.”
“The initiative aims to shift part of Cambodia’s freight transport from road to waterways, reducing logistics costs, easing road congestion and lowering infrastructure wear. Authorities also expect the ports to enhance connectivity between river, road and rail networks, creating a more integrated and efficient transport system.”
“The projects build on Cambodia’s existing port infrastructure, including Sihanoukville Autonomous Port and Phnom Penh Autonomous Port, which have recorded strong growth in cargo volumes. The new developments are expected to improve the competitiveness of the logistics sector, support trade expansion and strengthen Cambodia’s role in regional supply chains.”
