Main reasons for this fundamental change of view were the turning of Cambodia into a (nearly) free market economy in general and the contribution of quite a few economic sectors (like textile industry, tourism, agriculture and extraction economy) in particular. Even a sceptical institution like the IMF has become optimistic in the meantime and predicts a GNP-growth of 9% until the end of 2007. What is it about? A lasting upswing or just a sham boom? In favour of Cambodia there is the persistence of strong increases since 2003, is a low inflation, a stable exchange rate and the rather realistic expectation that the kingdom can turn into a petroleum-exporting country until 2009/10. On the other side, Cambodia suffers from infrastructural bottlenecks and from depressing social loads: 35% of the population continue living below the official poverty line.}, keywords = {Kambodscha; Cambodia; Wirtschaftswachstum; economic growth; Wirtschaftsentwicklung; economic development (on national level); Textilindustrie; textile industry; Tourismus; tourism; Landwirtschaft; agriculture; Wirtschaftspolitik; economic policy; landwirtschaftliche Entwicklung; agricultural development; nachhaltige Entwicklung; sustainable development}}
