Cambodia’s New Urban Mega Projects

In previous posts I introduced some of the hi-rise residential developments in Phnom Penh and some of the large-scale residential and resort developments in Sihanoukville that are expected to be completed in the coming years, so today I will list some of the longer-term mega-projects across the country.

Samdech Techo Hun Sen Dragon City

First touted in 2010, it is envisioned as the new Phnom Penh, a new city center to replace the capitals existing crowded and aging city center. As reported in the SEA Globe, the 35,000ha site near Chroy Changvar has slowly been attracting investment. The area is also the site of the Morodok Decho National Sports Complex and the recently completed Win-Win Monument (pictured above).

ING City

Located in Beong Cheung Ek and Tum Pun area, the ING City project is one of the largest projects taking place in South East Asia with a 20-year timeline. Covering 2,572 hectares of land, it will feature residential, retail, healthcare, education, hospitality, and commercial spaces, along with the preservation of a portion of the existing wetlands. The development has been slow to take off, and the subject of some conflict, although recently a new deal was signed for the creation of Causeway Bay Dragon City within the ING city.

It is connected to Phnom Penh proper via the near-completed Hun Sen Boulevard.

The Bokor Town Development Project

Recently approved by the government, the aim is for the Bokor area to become a smart city while preserving its historical heritage, along with the development of commercial and residential zones. 150,000ha of Bokor National Park allocated to the development features nine zones to include residential, commercial, multi-use, transport, tourism, public administration, public space, green space, cultural and religious, and technical infrastructure. Bokor Mountain is already home to the new Thansur Sokha Hotel and Casino (pictured above)

Kiri Sakor – International Tourism City

Since 2008, a large Chinese conglomeration has been working on a major development of a 45,000ha in Koh Kong province which is planned as a Tourism, Ecological, Marine and International (Temi) tourism city. Located on the coast near to Koh Sdach Island the area has an international airport under construction along with plans for a power plant, five-star hotel, resort, port, golf courses, condominiums, and commercial office buildings. Koh Sdach Island has also been the recipient of investment with a new port etc. Nearby, the same developer completed the Dara Sakor Resort which opened in 2018 (pictured above). Developer: Union Development Group
