The recent offering from Cebu Pacific to have direct flights from Cambodia to the Philippines is expected to increase both countries economies because of increased investors and tourism. This is a great step forward for the countries, aside from the economic benefits, because the agreement came as a result from the Joint Conference for Bilateral Cooperation which hadn't been held in over ten years. As the two countries become more in unison politically they have the opportunity to increase in trade and mutually benefit. I think it's interesting that Cambodian government officials are excited to learn from the development of the Philippines because the Philippines don't have that advanced of an economy.

I don't know very much about Cambodia, but after writing my articles about it a few weeks ago and now after reading this article, I feel excited for its growing potential. As a country it seems so far behind and I know that my view of it tends to be very third-world. It's great that they are strengthening these ties that can lead to greater economic growth.
