Good Governance: Enhancing and Poverty Reduction in Cambodia

Abstract

Cambodia has been growing rapidly over the few decades. Cambodia has enjoyed the fastest-growing economies and has sustained an average growth rate of 8% between 1998 and 2018 but poverty continues to fall in Cambodia. The poverty rate was 13.5% in 2014 compared to 47.8% in 2007. And about 90% of the poor live in the countryside. Poverty Reduction is arithmetically a function of economic growth rates and income distribution and changes in income distribution. This research aims to provide how to promote good governance for sustainable development in Cambodia. It examines the key issues related to governance structures and national reforms to enhance good governance. The analysis and findings from this research aim to contribute insights for policy-making by the Royal Government of Cambodia
