Cambodian coastal areas offer excellent opportunities for development. New roads are being built that will greatly improve infrastructure and transportation. In coming years, export markets will open and create greater demand for new products. The same will happen to tourism, accelerating the pace of change for local communities. How well prepared these communities are to participate in the growing economy and at the same time to take care of their natural resources, depends on the government’s interest in helping their own people to adapt to this change. The same includes donors who sometimes seem to follow one another in funding interest and policy support. The need to change funding and interest flow towards coastal areas of Cambodia is now, and not after all its marine resources have already been lost.
