Nice that the rents have returned to something reasonable. Too bad it's such a fucked up shithole that nobody wants to live there any more.

Shenzhen Institute of Planning to undertake Sihanoukville masterplan

Shenzhen, China – The Shenzhen Urban Planning and Design Institute has been commissioned to undertake a masterplan to transform Sihanoukville into a modern sprawling metropolis, using the Shenzhen experience as its secret recipe.

The institute is a planning, consulting, research and design agency that focuses on creating and pragmatically solving urban problems.

The institute specialises in multi-disciplinary integrated planning to cope with the complex problems that arise during urban development.

Since its establishment in 1990, it has completed more than 3,500 projects in Shenzhen and more than 200 locations at home and abroad, covering macro-regional research, urban comprehensive development consulting, planning and urban design, transportation and municipal infrastructure, low-carbon ecological technology research and application, regional development policies and other areas.

It is with this conviction and decades of experience in turning a sleepy hollow of a fishing village into an industrial, technological and commercial metropolis, a huge success story for China as a whole, that the institute hopes to undertake the 18-months long masterplan for the coastal city’s rehabilitation and redevelopment.

Xiao Sima, president and chief technology officer, addressing a Cambodian media delegation in Shenzhen on Wednesday, said that representatives from the institute have already made three study trips to see first-hand the intricacies and challenges of mapping out a masterplan within 18 months from January 2020.

Preliminary findings from the trips were compiled into a report and sent to the Ministry of Economy and Finance of Cambodia, which has forwarded it to Prime Minister HE for recommendations and approval.
