Cambodia plans to buy more electricity
from Vietnam
Jan 28, 2008 - Xinhua
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said on Monday that
his country was planning to purchase more electricity
from Vietnam to meet its ever rising demand.
"I requested the Vietnamese side to supply Cambodia
with more electricity," he told a school opening ceremony
in Svay Rieng province neighboring Vietnam.
The proposal was made during his visit with Vietnamese
official, he said, without elaborating the detail.
"I told our minister of industry, mine, and energy
to hold talk with the Vietnamese side to buy 200 megawatts
of electricity per year in the new plan. We used to
buy only 80 megawatts a year from Vietnam, but this
was far from enough," he said.
Power price remains high in Cambodia. The demand
in capital city Phnom Penh annually increased by 25
percent, according to official source.
