Cambodia: Cambodia-made travel goods no longer benefit from US's GSP as while US congress delay an extended act; unions call for labour reform & human rights respect

"Cambodia and More Than 100 Countries Lose Low Export-Tax Rate to the U.S.", 8 January 2021

The suspension of the US GSP scheme comes as Cambodia no longer benefits from the European Union’s preferential trading scheme Everything But Arms (EBA)…
