Rice exports facing challenges
Pou Puy, president of the Cambodian Rice Millers Association, said that the export of Cambodia’s white rice faces challenges in terms of both quantity and competitive pricing, as exports of milled rice dropped about 35 per cent for the first half of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.
Most big exporters experienced some obstacles in exporting milled rice from the Kingdom including the price of the rice compared to neighbouring countries, the ability to provide a product when supply is limited, and the lack of capital to purchase rice.
