INDUSTRY 4.0: HOW CAMBODIA CAN BUILD FOR THE FUTURE

Phnom Penh, 11 August 2020 – A new report conducted by the UN Development Programme
(UNDP) and the Policy Links Unit (IfM ECS, University of Cambridge) identifies opportunities and
challenges for manufacturing industries in Cambodia to adapt and adopt industry 4.0
technologies, and the policy options required to harness its potential in Cambodia. The adoption
and adaption of Industry 4.0 will result in more efficient and productive use of labour, capital and
natural resources for Cambodia thus promote the country’s competitiveness as an industrial
location.
The report identifies that the emerging picture is one characterized by contrasting views but also
one that highlights the need for countries to act. If Cambodia can build on a number of conditions
such as investments in basic and digital infrastructure; improvements in the institutional
framework; addressing financial constraints; and strengthening linkages between innovation
actors it will underpin the country’s competitiveness in the region.
As COVID-19 recovery begins by setting these pre-existing conditions it will give an edge to
Cambodian companies that are competing with imminent reconfiguration of supply chains in the
ASEAN region.
“Far too few enterprises in Cambodia are aware of, let alone access, new Industry 4.0 technology.
As a result, the economy is missing out on big productivity gains and workers are missing out on
high skilled jobs and better pay. This report is an excellent counterpart to the work undertaken
by the Royal Government on Cambodia’s Digital Strategy and we are keen to synergize the two,”
said Nick Beresford, UNDP Cambodia’s Resident Representative.
This report paves the way for further stages: a detailed survey of industrial practices, also
reflecting any COVID-19 impacts; and the development of policies mechanisms to ensure
technology transfers in the future.
