There are already dozens of business chambers in the country, some are country and region-specific, but most have the same ambitions - to increase business ties and drive investment in Cambodia and the CCIA has yet to clarify what their point of difference will be. The CCIA said it aims to establish a resource platform among the different chambers,  support investors by facilitating communication and collaboration, provide information and resources, and offer training and consulting services.
