Cambodia has recorded stable economic growth since the 1991 Paris Peace Accord that ended the long civil war from the 1970s. Under this circumstance, the Government of Cambodia requested the Government of Japan Grant Aid assistance to replace old buildings with new ones and to expand school facilities at 7 schools in Phnom Penh city. This project is the third (3^rd.) phase of 4 divided phased primary school building construction projects.

By constructing 96 classrooms at the 7 Project schools, the school environment for about 12,000 students residing in the Project school catchment areas will be improved.
