PHNOM PENH--Prime Minister Hun Sen Thursday said the government has collected $1.4 billion in tax revenue beyond the original target this year.
“Fortunately, this year's revenue has already exceeded $1.4 billion over the plan," he said during a graduation ceremony of the Royal University of Law and Economics (RULE).
The government’s original plan was to collect $4,548 million for 2019, according to the tax law.
The prime minister said the increase in the tax collection was the result of the effective public finance reform implemented by the government.
