The Ministry of National Defence will soon begin construction of the Samdech Pichey Sena Vacation & Development Zones on over 1,000 hectares of land in Koh Kong after demarcation works have been done, according to Koh Kong Provincial Hall last weekend.

The site visit was made on Friday 3 September and led by Koh Kong Deputy Governor Sok Sithy and Advisor to Samdech Pichey Sena Tea Banh General Soeun Roeuth.

According to the same source, the site visit was to mark the territory before allowing the ministry’s engineering group to start preparing and demarcating the boundary of the project in the location.

The location of the project is in Chroy Bros commune, Koh Kong district, Koh Kong province.

The development came after the Koh Kong provincial administration in July granted 1,102 hectares of state reserve land to the Ministry of National Defence to turn into the Samdech Pichey Sena Tea Banh Development Zone, which is named after Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defence Tea Banh.
