Why Cambodia Teambuilding and Seminar Destination 2023
Company Outings, Corporate travel, face to face Conference, and almost the entire MICE and team building industry was in severe crisis during the Covid-19 pandemic. Domestic and international Flights were grounded, international travel minimized to the absolute essential and executives and high rank and field staff encouraged to work from home.
Not different from many other parts of the world, Cambodia’s tourism and MICE business suffered badly, especially Siem Reap when 90% of small and medium-sized business were wiped out. Thousands of tourism related jobs were frozen, left all those experts jobless and forced to catch other careers.
However, with situation improvement and government has lifted many restrictions and pay a great focus on the tourism recovery. Check our Cambodia Tourism Update article here: https://www.sam-inspire.com/post-pandemic-cambodia-travel-updates/

The constant isolation and having nearly zero human contact, has taken a big toll on their performance. Corporations are willing to travel again, and executives ready to bond with their fellow colleagues on a more intimate level than was possible during the pandemic.
