"Prime Minister Hun Sen has already given the green light for the OCIC to develop the new town, now we're working with the Phnom Penh municipality in order to reach an official agreement,"Pung Kheav Se, president of Canadia bank, the country's third largest bank, and chairman of OCIC, which is the developer of the current Diamond Island City.
The would-be new town dubbed the Chroy Changvar, or "City of the Future" project will cover the area of 387 hectares in Russei Keo district's Prek Leap area, just across Cambodia-Japan Friendship Bridge (Chroy Changvar Bridge) from the central Phnom Penh.
