H.E. Ambassador Dominic William, British Ambassador to Cambodia
I believe passionately that a strong BritCham is good for Cambodia.
The UK-Cambodia relationship is not just government-to-government – it's about all the institutional and people-to-people connections between our two great countries. Businesses are at the heart of this. Business is where Cambodia and the UK come together as equal partners, working together for mutual benefit.
BritCham and British businesses make an important contribution to Cambodia's economic development. Alongside making an important contribution to Cambodia's phenomenal growth, many British companies make a conscious effort to give back to Cambodia, through charitable work and Corporate Social Responsibility programmes. They play a leading and important role in advocating for improvements to the business environment, and they have raised the bar for corporate governance and standards.
It's a genuine pleasure, whenever I visit British businesses in the Kingdom, to see Cambodians who are proud of their jobs, their workplace and their employers, who believe and invest in them.
I'm enthusiastic to do what I can to support the fantastic work that our businesses do in Cambodia – to promote and raise the profile of British products and services, to help connect British businesses with potential partners and customers, to advocate on their behalf and, sometimes, simply to bask in the reflected glory of their great work.

Message from our Executive Director
Mr Martin Darby, Executive Director of BritCham Cambodia
In 1995, the year the British Business Association of Cambodia, the forerunner of BritCham, was founded, I was serving as Regional Operations Director for Scottish and Newcastle. Based in the UK, I would have struggled to tell you much about Cambodia at that time. I knew little of its business environment, or which British companies were operating there. My first visit to Southeast Asia would come only a year later, and even then, I chose Hong Kong, still a British colony and frequently in the news.
What I did know, however, was the role of business chambers. A long-standing British institution, their origins trace back to Glasgow in 1783, home to the world’s first chamber of commerce. I had seen firsthand how British chambers shaped business representation, acting as a bridge between private enterprise and government, and advocating for better trade laws, improved infrastructure, and fair taxation.
Fast forward thirty years, and I now find myself serving as BritCham Cambodia’s second male Executive Director, following in the footsteps of some remarkable women leaders.
Over the past year, BritCham has become the fastest-growing, most dynamic, and enthusiastic business chamber in Cambodia.
To all our members, friends, and followers, thank you for your continued support. Here’s to the next thirty years of British business and community in Cambodia.
