Abstract

ABSTRACT The article examines the impact of ICT on Cambodia’s services export performance. In the econometric estimations, ICT is proxied by fixed telephone subscriptions, mobile cellular subscriptions, fixed broadband subscriptions, and internet users, and is introduced in the augmented gravity model with a panel data set available from 1995 to 2012. Estimations are carried out using the fixed-effects method. It is found that ICT variables are positively associated with Cambodia’s total services exports as well as exports of transport and travel services. Policy implications are provided in order to further develop Cambodia’s ICT infrastructure to enhance the country’s international trade.
