Royal Group Speeds Up Connection of 60km Submarine Power Line to Koh Rong

Royal Group Koh Rong Development Company, a subsidiary of the Royal Group, has invested in the construction of a submarine power line from the mainland to Koh Rong Island, where the company owns a number of resorts, hotels and an airport. 

The construction of a 60km submarine power cable, a joint venture between the company and Electricité du Cambodge, started in September 2022. 

“The 60-kilometre submarine power cable built to Koh Rong Island is scheduled to be completed in the first quarter of 2023 to provide electricity in the upcoming Khmer New Year,” said Neak Oknha Kith Meng, CEO of Royal Group. 

In February 2008, Royal Group Co Ltd signed a Koh Rong lease agreement with the Council for the Development of Cambodia to develop the island into business development areas and eco-tourism resorts. 

The company has now built three-star and five-star hotels with a total investment of US$55 million. 

The company is also building a 70-kilometre-long concrete road with an investment of US$35 million. It is now 50% completed. (Read more)
