World Bank says Cambodia among best low-income performers for logistics

27 March 2014

A new World Bank report shows that Cambodia is among the top ten low-income performers in terms of improving trade logistics, although its timeliness has deteriorated. The Logistics Performance and Indicators released at the end of last week shows that Cambodia's overall score rose from 2.56 points in 2012 to 2.74 points this year.

For customs, Cambodia's score climbed from 2.30 points in 2012 to 2.67 points in the latest survey. In other areas, the county's scores improved from 2.20 to 2.58 for infrastructure, from 2.61 to 2.83 for international shipments, from 2.50 to 2.67 for logistics competence and from 2.77 to 2.92 for tracking and tracing. But for timeliness, the report said Cambodia's score dropped from 2.95 points in 2012 to 2.75 points this year. It was also down from 3.05 points in 2007.

In a statement, the World Bank said the general trend was that low-performing countries were improving their overall scores faster than high-performing countries.
