Despite growing research on COVID-19 and its impacts on Cambodia, the extent to
\nwhich COVID-19 affects Cambodia\u2019s trade, global value chains (GVCs) and export competitiveness has not yet been well established. This study, therefore, aims to
\nfill knowledge gaps and examine the dynamic of Cambodia\u2019s exports, GVCs and
\ncompetitiveness during the pandemic. Specifically, it analyses Cambodia\u2019s export
\nperformance and assesses the extent to which the pandemic affects Cambodia\u2019s
\nexport structure and dynamic comparative advantage. The paper will also conduct an
\nempirical analysis on the impact of the pandemic on Cambodia\u2019s participation in GVC
\nactivities based on gravity modelling. The findings from this study not only provide
\ninsights into the vulnerability of Cambodia\u2019s trade, GVCs and competitiveness during
\nthe pandemic but also inform policy design for post-pandemic recovery.The remainder of this paper proceeds as follows:Briefly discusses how the
\nCOVID-19 pandemic reshapes the global trade landscape. Investigates the
\npandemic\u2019s impact on export performance with a strong emphasis on changes in
\nexport structure and geographical distribution of export markets. Elaborates
\nthe empirical specification and strategy for estimating the impact of COVID-19
\non Cambodia\u2019s participation in GVC activities. Assesses the change in
\nCambodia\u2019s export competitiveness by analysing revealed comparative advantage
\nfor pre- and post-COVID periods. Draws conclusions and provides policy
\nrecommendations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
