On Friday, September 30, 2022, Mr. No Lida, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of CGCC, participated as a speaker and shared about the Credit Guarantee Schemes at the Seminar on “Applying for Tourism Licenses via CamDx and Dissemination of New Measures and Legal Framework of the Ministry of Tourism” in Siem Reap Province, presided over by H.E. Song Tong Hap, Secretary of State of the Ministry of Tourism, with the participation of officials from Ministry of Tourism, and representatives from associations of tourism and travel agents.

At the seminar, CGCC’s DCEO highlighted the role of credit guarantee as an additional supporting mechanism initiated by the Royal Government of Cambodia to facilitate access to finance for companies/businesses that lack of collateral when applying for loans to banks/microfinance institutions. At the same time, in line with the policies of the Royal Government of Cambodia to support the survival and economic recovery during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, CGCC also launched a Co-Financing Guarantee Scheme for Tourism (CFGS-TR) to support the recovery of businesses in the tourism sector affected by the COVID-19.

He also strongly encouraged the Association of Tourism and Travel Agents and participants in this workshop to spread the information about the credit guarantee schemes, especially CFGS-TR, which is specially designed with favorable conditions to address the challenges of business owners in the tourism sector.
