PHNOM PENH. May 17 (Phnom Penh Post/ANN): The Ministry of Public Works and Transport on May 15 said it is preparing to expand Sihanoukville Autonomous Port and set up an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) system at the Kingdom’s ports to ramp up inventory and logistics control and boost exports.

This comes as the government sets its sights on industrial development near the ports to “make Cambodia a competitive strategic location in Asia in terms of logistics and transportation”, the ministry said via Facebook.
