Charles Amar Joins Panel on New Property Requirements

On 1 April 2022, Charles Amar (Head of Cambodia Real Estate and Construction) was a featured guest at a Breakfast Talk event organized by EuroCham Cambodia in collaboration with the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction (“MLMUPC”) to discuss the new certification process in the real estate and construction industries.

H.E. Dr. Chhann Sorphal (Director-General of Construction of the MLMUPC) made a presentation relating to this new certification process. This presentation was followed by an extensive Q&A session with H.E. Dr. Theng Chan-Sangvar (Secretary of the MLMUPC) and H.E. Dr. Chhann Sorphal (Director-General of Construction of the MLMUPC), Michel Cassagnes (Chairman of the Eurocham Real Estate and Construction Committee) and our expert Charles.

Also on 1 April 2022, EuroCham Cambodia and the MLMUPC reinforced their strong relationship by signing a new Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU“).

The DFDL team is pleased to recognize Charles for his contributions to this MoU and to this high-level discussion about new certification requirements in Cambodia’s booming property sector. Along with his senior role at DFDL, Charles is also Vice-Chairman of the EuroCham Real Estate & Construction Committee.

Under the MoU, EuroCham Cambodia will consult with the MLMUPC on new regulations and will assist in the drafting of new laws on land management, urban planning, construction, housing and Cambodia’s coastal development. EuroCham Cambodia also made a commitment to support the digitalization of the real estate and construction sectors, and to raise awareness about Cambodia’s legal framework and new initiatives by the MLMUPC, such as through seminars and conferences.
