Bokor Mountain Cable Car Project Under Study by Sokimex, Doppelmayr & Confluences

Sokimex Investment Group (SIG) has granted permission for Doppelmayr and Confluences to explore the feasibility of a cable car system on Bokor Mountain in Kampot province, aiming to boost tourism and economic growth. This announcement was shared on the official Facebook page of SIG on 21 October 2024, confirming the companies’ involvement in assessing the technical and economic aspects of the project.

During the recent site visit, Oknha Say Sophotra, Vice President of SIG, met with Mr. Martin Ladner, Manager of Doppelmayr, to discuss the project’s development strategy. The cable car initiative is envisioned to significantly enhance the appeal of Monivong Bokor National Park for both domestic and international tourists while also generating employment opportunities and contributing to Cambodia’s overall economic progress.

In addition to the Bokor Mountain project, Doppelmayr and Confluences are conducting a feasibility study for a potential cable car system in Sihanoukville. The companies are evaluating the investment requirements, including the number of cable cars to be installed, to ensure that the projects meet both technical standards and economic expectations. This dual focus reflects a broader commitment to developing Cambodia’s tourism infrastructure and attracting foreign visitors.
