Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has urged the country's textile workers and manufacturers to unite in the face of increased competition from China and Vietnam.
Speaking to workers in Sihanoukville, he also called on factory owners to cooperate with unions and workers, and to consider what he called a "maximum increase" in wages.
He appealed for the rapid and peaceful resolution of any industrial disputes.Earlier this month, garment workers received a wage rise of six US dollars a month after threatening to go on strike.
Cambodia's clothing industry could be undermined by greater productivity from Vietnam, and the end to American restrictions against Chinese textile exports due next year.
