PHNOM PENH, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia's garment industry, the
kingdom's largest income maker, recorded 3.65 billion U.S. dollars in
export value in the first eight months of the year, up 21 percent from
3.01 billion U.S. dollars over the same period last year, the Ministry
of Commerce said Friday.
Cambodian apparels are mostly sold to the United States and European countries, with some to Canada, Japan, South Korea and China, said the ministry's report.
The garment industry accounted for about 80 percent of the country's total exports.
Currently, the sector is comprised of about 500 factories with some 510,600 workers, with a worker's monthly minimum wage being 80 U.S. dollars.
In 2012, the impoverished Southeast Asian nation generated 4.6 billion U.S. dollars from garment exports.
