New Company Welcomed for PP Waste Management

27 May 2014

Phnom Penh Municipality welcomed the intention of a Japanese company to invest in the capital’s waste management.

The welcome was shared in the meeting late last week between Phnom Penh Deputy Governor H.E. Eang Aun Ny and Mr. Yuske Okumara, Director of Koua Corporation at the municipal hall.

Phnom Penh daily disposes of 1.600 tons. The current inclusively commissioned to manage the waste is not capable enough for the deal with the increasing waste disposal, making it one of the major challenges of the Phnom Penh Municipality. The municipality is looking for a qualified partner not only to ensure the capital’s cleanliness but to process the waste appropriately. Mr. Yusuke Okumura appreciated the opening of Phnom Penh authority and will study carefully the current waste management in Cambodia before the next move.

Phnom Penh’s new dumping site is located in the south-western suburb with the total 12.5 hectares. The first two giant holes of the dumping site are expected to be filled up late this year.
