Turkiye, Cambodia sign deal on using international transport corridors

The deal aims at enhancing bilateral ties and boost cooperation between the two sides, especially in transport connectivity along the Central and TRACECA (Transport Corridor Europe-Caucasus-Asia) corridors.

It also envisions transforming Cambodia and Turkiye into regional logistics hubs for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) bloc and East Asia-Europe respectively.

Cambodian Minister of Public Works and Transport Peng Ponea and Turkish ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary Ulku Kocaefe signed the deal, according to Cambodian media reports.

Ponea said the corridor will serve as a vital link between Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and the Mediterranean, creating new opportunities for trade and investment.
