This publication outlines the results of the multilateral development partnership between the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and Cambodia over the years.
It explores how ADB interventions have made a difference in the lives of people in the country. Over the past 20 years, Cambodia has achieved remarkable economic development, attaining middle-income status in 2016 and reducing poverty rate from 47.8% in 2007 to 13.5% in 2014. As Cambodia’s largest multilateral development partner, ADB’s completed projects between 2011 and 2017 have provided low-cost electricity, improved water supply, and delivered new or improved sanitation to thousands of rural households, and constructed or upgraded more than 1,400 kilometers of roads.
