Are you ready to start a business?

So you’re thinking of starting in business? Whether you’re starting a new business, or buying an established one, you’ll need to prepare for challenges.

Starting a business requires a lot of effort and commitment. Before you start, it’s important to know what’s involved and if you’re suited to business and self-employment. We recommend you take some time to critically evaluate yourself.

Consider these key areas to make sure you are ready.

Aside from having knowledge in your chosen industry, running a business requires a wide range of skills such as business, personal and interpersonal skills. Now is the time to find training opportunities to help you build relevant skills.

Your lifestyle will change a lot as a business owner. You will need to work long hours and even weekends. You need to prepare yourself that you may have less free time.

Passion and motivation can wear off during hard times. Make sure you’re prepared to keep working even when things are hard. You will need to rely on your discipline not to give up.

Make sure you are in the right financial position to start a business. Starting a business is exciting but also expensive. There will be a number of up-front costs you will have to consider, as well ongoing fixed and variable costs involved in running a business.

You may not start making money from your business for some time. It’s important you have enough financial backing to take on and support your new venture.

You should have enough savings or an alternative income to use whilst establishing your business. It may be a while before you can pay yourself a stable salary or income again. This may have a significant effect on your lifestyle and daily living.

It’s important that you assess your business idea with a critical eye. Make sure that there is a need or desire from customers for your product or service.

It’s important that you are comfortable seeking help. Running a business isn’t a simple thing to do and you don’t have to do it alone. Make sure you reach out to professional business advisors or other trusted business professionals.

Talking to a business adviser or trusted accountant or tax agent can help you solve business problems and connect you to grants and programs.

Unfortunately, you need to be prepare yourself that your business may not be successful. This might mean that you could lose money, time and investments.

Before you start a business, be aware of all the business risks you might face.

It’s okay if you don’t feel ready to start a business. There are other pathways you can take.

You can:

  • continue your business idea but as a hobby venture
  • think of another idea and assess your new business idea
  • reassess your situation again in the future – you might be ready then!

Cambodian economy can grow by four percent this year

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has projected that the Cambodian economy will grow by 4 percent this year and 5.5 percent next year, led by a robust recovery of its major trade partners.

In the Asian Economic Outlook 2021, announced on May 28, the lender forecast that the country’s industrial production will expand by 7.1 percent this year and 7 percent next year thanks to the recovery of apparel, footwear, and travel items as well as the growth of electronics and bicycle assembling.

Agriculture is expected to grow by 1.3 percent in 2021 and 1.2 percent in 2022, while services may recover more slowly, expanding by 3.3 percent in 2021 and 6.2 percent in 2022. Efforts to contain a local outbreak of COVID-19 that began in February are dampening service sector activities, ADB noted.

ADB Country Director for Cambodia Sunniya Durrani Jamal stressed that amid this challenging environment, fiscal policy remains crucial, as the rollout of a broad fiscal stimulus package has played a vital role in supporting the economy. 

France pledges almost $150 million to Cambodia for six years

Economy Ministry secretary of state Vongsey Vissoth meets with French Ambassador Eva Nguyen Binh, to discuss France’s promise to provide financial support to Cambodia of almost 50 million for six years from 2021 to 2026. MOEF

France will provide about $122 million to $146 million a year to support development in Cambodia in the form of a concession loan for a six-year period from 2021 to 2026, according to the Ministry of Economy.

The promise was made at the 4th Cambodia-France Consultation Meeting held via video conference yesterday between Economy Ministry secretary of state Vongsey Vissoth, French Development Agency (AFD) representative Rémi Genevey and French Ambassador Eva Nguyen Binh.

Vissoth said that France is not just a friend, but it is one of leading countries in contributing support and bringing peace to Cambodia and has been a key development partner in different fields since the Paris Peace Accords.

He said that in response to the impact of the current Covid-19 pandemic, Cambodia has set out an economic recovery strategy for 2021-2023 based on three pillars.

The first pillar is Resurrection and Survival. The focus is to control the spread of Covid-19 and maintain the flow of the economy and the survival of the people, as well as the rehabilitation and rebuilding of economic foundations.

The second pillar is Reform. Cambodia seeks to turn crisis into an opportunity by increasing diversification and economic competitiveness, especially through digitalisation.

The third pillar is Strengthen Resilience. Through strengthening and preparedness in public institutions, the economy and finance, human resources, public health systems, skills training and social security, Cambodia will be ready to respond to similar issues that may arise in the future.

Vissoth said that future planning and cooperation must be strategically designed to make Cambodia strong, prosperous and resilient, which are the basis for economic growth and competitiveness.

In this regard, Cambodia needs to promote the development of science and technology to accelerate economic growth and expand its growth base. The country also needs more innovation in both the public and private sectors through the enhancement of digital technology and promoting e-commerce for small and medium enterprises, he said.

From 2018 to 2021, France has provided Cambodia with more than $293 million through AFD for clean water, education and capacity building projects, rural infrastructure rehabilitation, agricultural development projects, climate change mitigation and tourism.
