Cambodia Investment Review
Sea Ventures, a joint venture of the visionary investment group Haystack Group and Cambodia’s premier investment conglomerate, the Royal Group, has announced its acquisition of Gara, an innovative roadside assistance application. This strategic move comes as Sea Ventures’ principal platform, Camboticket.com, stands ready to charge full steam ahead following a comprehensive platform rebuild spearheaded by the Haystack Group.
Camboticket.com is the leading marketplace for bus, ferry, and other transportation services in Cambodia. This acquisition marks a significant step in Sea Ventures’ mission to offer an all-encompassing range of services for Cambodian motorists, including those who drive cars or ride motorcycles.

The collaboration brings together Camboticket’s robust payment infrastructure, extensive relationships with operators, and comprehensive database. “This partnership will enable us to deliver an unparalleled service throughout the Kingdom of Cambodia,” the spokesperson added.
The introduction of Gara responds to the growing demand for dependable, accessible, and high-quality roadside assistance in Cambodia. The app has been developed with insights from Cambodian drivers, aiming to provide uninterrupted and hassle-free journeys for work or leisure.
Enhancing Cambodia’s transportation sector
Sea Ventures, under the guidance of the Haystack Group, continues to enhance the Cambodian transportation sector. Haystack Group has been working closely with innovative tech startups, providing them with the necessary operational expertise and industry insights to scale and succeed in the competitive marketplace.
Meanwhile, the Royal Group has been pivotal in bringing the best products, services, and technology to Cambodia for over three decades. The group plays a significant role in the Kingdom’s growth story and remains at the forefront of development and investment.
