The Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor has opened Israel's first economic mission in Cambodia's capital of Phnom Penh, under the charge of the economic attaché in Thailand, Tzahi Selzer.

During May a first Israeli delegation of telecommunications companies visited the Southeastern Asian country. Some 15 companies took part in the delegation, including such high profile names as ECI, Gilat and Comverse, whose representatives met with top local government officials.

Simultaneously, a Cambodian agricultural delegation came to Israel last week to participate in the Agritech agricultural exhibition in Tel Aviv.

According to Selzer, Cambodia is mainly interested in Israeli companies involved in irrigation technologies, agriculture, infrastructure and medical devices.

Israel, you have gotten Khmer support. Please help Khmer to overcome these two nations next to us.

Let us learn how defense our country just like you. I read the history, your country is smaller size and less population than us and you can stand up with the muslim countries that surrounding you. Teach us how to confront our enemies.

Thanks,

But Israeli is a welfare state. They receive like $1-2 Billion a year from the United States.

$1 or $2 billion is a very affordable price to pay for greater American interests.

A strong and US-friendly Cambodia can be like what Israel is to the US in the Middle-East in Southeast Asia. A deterence to regional dominance by China/Viet (and Russia?)
