Never heard of a communist country has a business man investing outside own country.Everything is controlled by central party.
Kim Jong Il has a North Korea esponiage house in Siem Reap to monitor Korean visitors at Angkor.
Cambodia begged USA for free import taxes and more textiles to be exported to America. For the mean time Cambodia is trading with North Korea whom USA imposed economy sanction on the nuclear issue? If it's backfired against Cambodia, many jobs will be lost more than N. Korea can provide. I don't think it is a smart move.
Well, Cambodia needn't beg anyone for anything, had the US and Ah tootless Khmer-Yuons stayed out of the region.
