It looks like an interesting project.
I like the simplicity of your pools. Very tidy.

Keep an eye on your water.
Water Quality
· Temperature: 8°C - 25°C
— will do best at 12°C - 20°C
· pH: 7.0—8.0
· General Hardness: 50—300 ppm.

I wonder if this will be a problem
Yabbies will breed when the temperature is above 15°C and the day length exceeds 14 hours.

Can’t wait to see the modern-day Bubba Gump fishery in Cambodia explode on to the yabbie scene. Good luck Andy!!!

It's touch and go.
I can just see a project like this being totally illegal , damaging the reputation of Cambodia , not having a licence from the appropriate authorities, no inspection certificate from Ministry of Fisheries, no permission given from the local village chief .

Expect the local police to confiscate the evidence and take to the police station for a bite test, and every one will stand around and have their photos taken while they release the balance into the Mekong with the newspaper headlines quoting Saving the Endangered Fisheries Species in the Cambodian Pristine Waterways.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
