electricity shortages: Indeed, integration between Cambodia's Rectangular Strategy and Belt and Road initiative BRI has injected new impetus, according to Global Times China. At the China-Cambodia Trade and Investment Promotion Forum 2019 in Beijing, Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen emphasized that the Chinese investment has played an important role in infrastructure urgently needed for Cambodia's economic transformation and industrialization. It is an important expression for China and Cambodia's decades long friendship and cooperation. The 400-megawatt Lower Sesan II hydroelectric power dam, Cambodia's largest hydropower project completed by Chinese company, recently has become a symbol of that. It has greatly relieved electricity shortages, increasing energy independence, reducing reliance on oil-fueled power plants and alleviating poverty. The power project contributes around 20 percentage of Cambodia's total installed capacity.
