Translated from Khmer by Socheata
The owner of a South Korean construction company told Hun Sen that his company plans to build a new road linking Monivong Blvd. to Takhmao city, Kandal province. During a meeting held in the afternoon of 12 April, at Hun Sen’s mansion in Takhmao city, Sin Jang Jeol, the S.Korean construction company owner, asked for Hun Sen’s support for his plan to build this new road which will be christened “Samdach Akak Moha Sena Bat Dey Dek Cho Hun Sen Road.” The new road will measure 1,872-meter-long, and it will link Monivong Boulevard to Takhmao city. The road will cross a 400-meter bridge, and will cost $85 million to build. Hun Sen told the owner of the S.Korean company to cooperate with the city of Phnom Penh and other institutions involved so that this plan will come to fruition.

85 millions dollars sounds like a rip off for a 2km road.
including a 400m bridge should be reasonable dude.
That is the way of corruption by ah Hun Sen family !
The high cost is the pretext to charge you more for the toll. Oh it also to cover the corruption cost to ruling party to make sure they have enough money to bull shit the poor Khmer before the election.
Another land grabing, elegal eviction, fille up the lake is in the planning? Down to CPP!!!
well, phnom penh city is growing and spreading out so it is a good idea to keep building good roads crisscrossing all around the city. i hope phnom penh will one day have a metro or subway or elevated way whatever deemed appropriate for this beautiful city of asia. god bless cambodia.
The governments have to decide which good for the people and for our Country and both our friendship between the Kingdom of Cambodia and South Korean.
