China has re-emerged to become a dominant foreign player in Cambodia. Politically,
Cambodia is one of China’s oldest and closest allies. Economically, China is Cambodia’s
top foreign investor, a major donor, and an increasingly important trading partner.
Culturally, Chinese values are deeply embedded in many aspects of Cambodian society.
However, China’s dominance is surrounded by renewed controversies. While the government
warmly welcomes Chinese aid, saying that it comes with no strings attached, many experts
