KH HAITECH plans Cambodia factory to drive Industry 4.0, expand affordable tech
– KH HAITECH announced plans to set up production facilities in Cambodia to introduce Industry 4.0 manufacturing, expand access to affordable technology and support the country’s industrial upgrading as it prepares to graduate from least‑developed status.
In a courtesy meeting with Industry, Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Hem Vanndy, on Jan.29, company representatives said the project aims to build highly automated and adaptable factories, while supplying low‑cost tablets to Cambodians, particularly students and informal‑sector workers, to widen access to digital tools and online learning.
Neak Oknha Sam Sokneoun said KH HAITECH was established as a joint venture between a Cambodian enterprise and partners from China and Singapore to create a locally rooted brand. Founder and director Dennis Lye Ngaic Seong added the company is assessing several sites for production, noting that reliable utilities, especially electricity, are crucial in investment decisions.
Minister Vanndy welcomed the initiative and reaffirmed his ministry’s commitment to support investors through facilitation of factory establishment, operating permits, industrial property protection, standards and laboratory services.
He also invited KH HAITECH to present its products and solutions at the 4th National Science, Technology and Innovation Day, scheduled for March 26–28, 2026, a platform to connect innovators, industry and technology users in Cambodia.
