A recent survey by China Global Television Network (CGTN) and Renmin University of China reveals that most Cambodian respondents recognize the positive impact of Chinese companies operating locally.
Over 95 percent of the 1,010 participants said Chinese firms play an active role in investing and operating in Cambodia.
Nearly 96 percent believe China has contributed positively to global economic growth.
Additionally, 89 percent think Cambodia should learn from China's development models, such as establishing special economic zones.
Visiting Chinese President Xi Jinping is paying a state visit to Cambodia at the invitation of King Norodom Sihamoni, marking his second visit to the Southeast Asian country in nine years.
Cambodia is the third and final leg of Xi's current five-day Southeast Asia tour, which saw him complete state visits to Vietnam and Malaysia before arriving in Phnom Penh.

The Bayannur section of the Yellow River in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region became fully frozen as of 07:00 Sunday, officially entering its stable winter ice period.
Freezing of the river commenced on December 4, 2025, but repeated thawing and refreezing driven by temperature fluctuations and higher water flow postponed a full, stable freeze-over. The entire process lasted 48 days, 29 days longer than the previous year, making it the longest freezing period for this section in recent years.
In response to the extended and volatile freezing process, local authorities in Bayannur City and districts along the river have intensified their ice-jam prevention efforts. Officials have been conducting thorough inspections to identify and manage any potential obstacles within the river channel that could contribute to dangerous ice dams.
To ensure safety and stability during the frozen season, a 24-hour monitoring and patrol system has been implemented along the riverbanks to watch for any signs of ice-related hazards.
