Rice plant helps grow Sino-Cambodian ties

Processing facility is funded by a Chinese development cooperation

The rice-processing industry is bringing South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region and Cambodia even closer, as it becomes a new growth point for bilateral cooperation with the Southeast Asian nation aiming to increase its rice exports.

A rice milling plant in Kampong Chhnang Province of central Cambodia, 50 km to Phnom Penh Port, began operation in late July.
