Cambodia has a flourishing mobile market and, in relative terms, a progressively diminishing fixed-line market. There is a huge discrepancy between the number of mobile subscribers compared with fixed-line subscribers, the former totalling around 2.5 million by end-2007, while fixed lines remained at an almost insignificant 33,000.

The government’s major challenge has been to attract more foreign investors. It is starting to succeed in this. Obtaining reliable statistics continues to be difficult.
