Yun Min, governor of Preah Sihanouk province, said he did not know about the project, but said a master plan would help improve the development of the city.
The job of governor of Preah Sihanouk province must be much coveted. So much potential.

Sihanoukville poised to be the next Shenzhen
Preah Sihanouk – Cambodia’s dominant coastal province – is positioned for future growth as the country’s principal gateway onto the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road and global trade routes.
Preah Sihanouk’s rapid development has been the cause for discussion and speculation since the province emerged as a focus for Chinese investment in mid-2017.
Now Sihanoukville is gearing up for another significant development push, fuelled by strong investment into infrastructure, a number of large-scale projects and a resurgent optimism about the province’s future.
At present, the city is home to more than 90 casinos, a host of hotels, condominium developments, retail projects and industrial parks.
Development of the city continues, albeit at a slower pace than witnessed during the height of the construction boom in 2018 and early 2019.
Urban planning is also taking a step forward, with the involvement of Chinese city planners from Shenzhen. Sihanoukville sits at the crossroads of multiple major infrastructure initiatives, including China’s ambitious One-Belt-One-Road project and the Greater Mekong Sub-region Economic Corridors southern route. The model of Shenzhen from being a small fishing port on mainland China 40 years ago to being a huge high-tech industrial city today, has been widely lauded as offering a blueprint for Preah Sihanouk’s development and in this vein the government has employed the Urban Planning and Design Institute of Shenzhen to master plan the province.
The master plan has not yet been released. However, it is likely to be based on a core of improved infrastructure access, especially in the form of the new Phnom Penh – Sihanoukville expressway, an expanded airport and greatly improved provincial road connections.
These will be needed to support and encourage a broad-based economy centred on manufacturing, services, tourism and technology. Preah Sihanouk faces a variety of hurdles in achieving the stated development goals, not least a lack of capital, trained human resource and development know-how.

Re: Chinese team to study master plan for Sihanoukville
I thought the Chinese masterplan was to knock everything down, move out as many people as possible & fill the place with their own people ?
Perhaps that was just the first Chinese Masterplan ?

I think that's still basically the plan, but there are "hurdles".jaynewcastle wrote: ↑Thu Sep 03, 2020 12:50 am I thought the Chinese masterplan was to knock everything down, move out as many people as possible & fill the place with their own people ?

Preah Sihanouk faces a variety of hurdles in achieving the stated development goals, not least a lack of capital, trained human resource and development know-how.
The first bit about knocking everything down and moving out the locals went swimmingly, but I guess they are now waiting for the "capital investment,trained human resources, and development know-how. "
That said, maybe in 20-30 years Sihanoukville will be a replica of Shenzhen, but with the economic strife right now, that may not be a priority and might take longer than the initial plan.

Ever started a sketch didn't like part of it, and erased parts, draw again, then when finished, screwed it up and thrown it in the bin.
Always "hope" but never "expect".
