As seen in the completion of bipartisan electoral reform early this year, the political environment and relations between the ruling CPP and opposition CNRP have improved markedly from the turmoil of 2014. This more conducive investment climate, along with strengthening demand for Cambodia's garment exports, should help real GDP growth to rebound from 7% last year, to 7.3% in 2015 and to 7.5% in 2016. Political risk remains, however, with the CPP looking to pass controversial social legislation.
