The collaboration between The Better Cambodia (TBC https://thebettercambodia.com ) and the International Federation of Business and Industry Chambers (IFBIC https://ifbic.com ) marks a significant milestone in fostering bilateral trade and economic development. This partnership opens doors for Indian and other companies to expand their markets in Cambodia, paving the way for increased investment and mutual growth.
A Meeting of Minds
The meeting that set the stage for this collaboration took place between Surya Narayan, Founder and CEO of The Better Cambodia, and Mr. Amresh Kumar Singh, President of IFBIC, along with Ms. Molly Faulkner, Senior Vice President of IFBIC. The primary objective of this partnership is to bring more trade missions to Cambodia from different countries, thereby promoting economic collaboration and enhancing trade opportunities.
The Better Cambodia: Promoting Positive Change
Established in July 2022, The Better Cambodia is dedicated to transforming the narrative surrounding Cambodia and showcasing the true essence of this vibrant nation to a global audience. TBC operates under three distinct divisions: Positive Media, Invest in Cambodia, and Visit Cambodia, each focused on achieving specific goals for the country’s development and prosperity.
TBC strongly believes in the necessity of a platform that highlights positive news about Cambodia. Despite its turbulent past, Cambodia has achieved significant milestones in economic development, political stability, and social progress in recent years. The country is a rapidly emerging economy with a stable government and a strong growth trajectory, having experienced an average annual economic growth rate of over 7% in the past decade, driven by robust performances in different sectors and industries.
Government policies aimed at attracting foreign investment and improving infrastructure have further spurred economic development.
TBC’s mission is clear: to alter the false negative narrative that has been perpetuated about Cambodia. The platform aims to attract investors and tourists by highlighting the rich culture, stunning landscapes, and warm-hearted people of Cambodia. By showcasing positive stories and content, TBC seeks to inspire others to see Cambodia through a new lens, one that highlights its resilience, beauty, and potential.

A Bright Future Ahead
