Program Performance Summary FY 2005: Despite a decade of relative calm slowly, progress on 

building a market-based economy and tentative steps toward more democratic governance, Cambodia 

remains one of the world’s poorest countries. Social and economic indicators are among the lowest in 

Asia. Annual per capita income is on the order of $300. Cambodia also wrestles with serious global 

concerns, including those related to environmental degradation, HIV/AIDS, child survival and avian 

influenza. 

Cambodia’s emergence as a democratic and economically viable state will strengthen its role in the 

Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) and other international groups. From a U.S. point of 

view, a stable and successful Cambodia serves to strengthen regional cooperation, support more open 

society, ensure political stability and contribute to economic growth. Yet significant challenges face 

Cambodia, both economically and politically. The economy is overwhelmingly reliant on the garment 

industry although the tourism and construction sectors are growing rapidly. Foreign aid primarily accrues 

to the government, which has yet to make much progress in reducing poverty or improving social 

indicators. 

Beyond this, there is a vast and unproductive rural sector on which most of the country depends. 

Employment concerns loom large as 150,000 young and often unskilled Cambodians enter the workforce 

each year, a number expected to increase to 200,000 by 2010. The entire garment sector employs 

around 280,000 people, primarily young women. Economic growth rates in 2005 have been encouraging, 

but income disparity and poverty remain very real concerns. The fact that some 47,000 garment workers 

out of a work force estimated at around 250,000 are out of work underscores the fact that this industry will 

no longer be able to absorb large numbers of new job entrants as it has in the past. 

Abysmal health and other social indicators are also a concern. Research suggests that serious disease 

is a prime contributor to rural poverty, with families selling land and other assets to obtain medical care. 

High fertility rates will make unemployment a concern for at least another generation. Initiatives in health 

can also have a regional dimension. For example, activities that control infectious diseases such as 

HIV/AIDS, drug-resistant malaria and avian flu and prevent them from spreading; benefit all of South East 

Asia, not just Cambodia. 

It has been a difficult year for democratic reforms. Cambodia has held a series of three elections over the 

past twelve years (May 1993, July 1998 and July 2003), each suggesting at least some degree of forward 

movement and each in some sense more “successful” than the last. After the traumas of the last several 

decades, Cambodia enjoys its highest level of stability in generations. At the same time, government 

institutions remain weak. There is little concept of rule of law; corruption is rampant; competing political 

voices have a hard time being heard; and power is increasingly concentrated in a few hands. 

Finally, the large donor community bears an important responsibility in terms of coordination and 

cooperation. USAID accounts for about 10 percent of the estimated $500 million in donor assistance 

provided to Cambodia each year. The biggest bilateral donor is Japan, with the US ranked second. A 

relatively large number of other bilateral donors with significant programs are also represented, including 

France, Australia, Germany, Britain, Denmark and Sweden, among others. Both the World Bank and the 

Asian Development Bank have large portfolios and significant policy expertise. 

Within this network of other donors, USAID/Cambodia’s “niche” is especially pronounced in the health 

sector (specifically with respect to HIV/AIDS and child survival) and in its almost exclusive reliance on 

NGOs and PVOs, both international and local, to implement programs. USAID/Cambodia also strives to 

promote donor coordination and linkage among activities. For example, in the health sector USAID and 

Japan have signed a Memorandum of Understanding formalizing our commitment to work together. 

USAID/Cambodia also participates in all relevant technical working groups that have been established to 

promote coordination and harmonization with the Government of Cambodia and among the donor 

community. 

Key Achievements: 
4

Health: USAID has made significant contributions towards improving health care in Cambodia. Working 

with the Ministry of Health and a network of non governmental organizations (NGOs) and other donors, 

USAID has heavily invested in the health sector. HIV prevalence has been reduced among the adult 

population and among many high-risk groups from 2.6% in 2002 to 1.9% today. The innovative HIV/AIDS 

‘continuum of care’ model uses HIV/AIDS services as an entry point to more comprehensive health 

services, including receiving antiretroviral drugs. Directly observed treatment, short course (DOTS) 

therapy for tuberculosis (TB) has been expanded to all health centers. Cambodia has successfully 

maintained a high TB treatment rate of over 85% and increased the TB case detection rate to 64%. 

Vitamin A was taken by 80% of postpartum women in USAID focus districts as compared to 11% 

nationally. There was a 13% increase in the number of children aged 12-23 months who were fully 

immunized in USAID supported areas. These improvements are the result of better planning, quality 

assurance, supervision, transportation, outreach and other systems being provided by USAID and its 

partners. Yet much remains to be done, especially in the areas of HIV/AIDS, TB, malaria and child 

survival. USAID and partners have to find better ways to encourage appropriate behaviors and to remove 

the systemic barriers that prevent the delivery of adequate health services. 

Education: USAID completed new curriculum for grades one through six in all subjects, and standards for 

measuring student learning achievement. Twenty modules that teach children basic life skills, such as 

animal raising, vegetable gardening, and first aid, have been completed. Five teacher training modules 

on using the new curriculum have been completed. USAID has also helped to build capacity within the 

Ministry of Education Youth and Sports (MOEYS). Staff from the MOEYS have been trained and are now 

independently developing new curriculum and additional basic life skills modules. A process to empower 

schools and communities to work together on education issues and problems was completed. A total of 

25 school/community workshops were held in FY 2005. USAID completed baseline surveys and 

outreach activities in order to identify those children most in need and the schools that will be targeted 

under the inclusive education activity. 

Political and Economic Governance: USAID continues to assist Cambodia to strengthen the justice 

sector and increase citizen’s access to the Cambodian access to justice. A total of 2,938 cases including 

280 high impact cases passed through the legal system. Independent voices were supported through 

political party programs including 60 public forums which were attended by over 67,000 people. USAID’s 

legal and organizational support helped land owners who were being pushed off their land by government 

and private interests to negotiate fair and just compensation for their houses and land. USAID supported 

labor activities helped unions to negotiate nine collective bargaining agreements with employers in the 

garment sector and tourism industry. In an effort to address economic and environmental issues, USAID 

improved private sector competitiveness and management of natural resources and biodiversity 

conservation by providing support for the creation of alternative livelihoods for 200 families. This effort 

prevented the burning of 612 hectares of forest which resulted in the replanting of over 44 hectares of 

forest. USAID support for rangers resulted in the rescue of 20,000 mostly endangered animals. USAID 

trained over 9,000 families in 83 villages in how to effectively manage shared natural resources at the 

village level. A Global Development Alliance (GDA) helped to raise awareness of trafficking in wildlife. 

The GDA partner J.W. Thompson, used their advertising expertise to produce and air hundreds of public 

service announcement that reached over 34,000 adults and 6,000 children. 

Integrated Programming and Cross-Cutting Issues: 

USAID is part of the inter-agency National Influenza Pandemic Preparedness Task Force organized by 

the Department of Health and Human Services. This task force is working together to develop and refine 

preparedness efforts to ensure the most effective response possible, should an influenza pandemic 

occur. In addition, USAID funded a survey that documents information essential for the design and 

planning of communication programs for poultry farmers. The research provides first hand knowledge on 

behavior in Cambodia. This can help policy makers, government, and NGO workers to more effectively 

focus on target groups to prevent and control avian influenza among poultry. 

Gender: 
5

USAID integrates gender as a cross-cutting theme throughout all sectors. This year USAID conducted a 

gender analysis to identify priority gender issues. The assessment analyzed a variety of activities from a 

gender perspective by focusing on their strengths while also exploring opportunities and threats in the 

Cambodia context. For example, economic factors as well as gender roles contribute to gender disparity 

in all sectors. A pilot Health Equity Funds project through one activity and a girls’ school scholarship 

program through another activity both reduce the economic constraints related to accessing health and 

education services. From the governance sector, increasing alternative livelihoods in protected areas, 

vocational training for rural women at risk of trafficking and a factory workers’ training program for social 

adjustment to urban areas are interventions that support women and girls by increasing their economic 

security. Next year, USAID will build on those promising practices to address some of the cross-cutting 

issues that are in danger of “falling through the cracks,” such as gender-based violence. 

Conflict Sensitive Programming: 

Land tenure is one of the most critical issues facing Cambodians. A rational and equitable system of 

registering land and recognizing land ownership rights has yet to be developed to replace the land tenure 

system that was dismantled during the Khmer Rogue regime. The fight over land and natural resources 

has increased the potential for conflict and disproportionately impacted the poorest Cambodians. To 

reduce the potential for conflict, USAID provided legal and organizational support aimed at helping land 

owners who were being pushed off their land by government and private interests to negotiate fair and 

just compensation for their houses and land.

school teachers in eight remote provinces are being trained in the child-centered curriculum methodology; 

three copies of the new curriculum is reaching every school in Cambodia; and assessment tools are 

being created to measure student progress against the new student standards for each grade level. 

USAID’s inclusive education program is improving access to quality education for the most underserved 

populations of Cambodia’s education sector: Muslim Chams, girls, hill tribes, the disabled, minorities, and 

those living in remote areas. To increase school attendance and retention rates of underserved 

populations, 3,000 students are receiving primary school scholarships, and 250 disabled children are 

receiving assistance that will help keep them in school. In order to improve the quality of education for
