Koh Sampouch, Sampouch means ferret, so ferret island, a small island off Ream Beach, Sihanoukville. Before, to get there you need to go by boat, however since it was leased to a Chinese development company. A road was built, so now it can be accessible by car and motorbike. It now become a resort for rich Chinese. People still can go to visit there, but you need to pay, even local. I have been there a few times.

Here is the video of locals visiting the island.

បើសិនធ្វើចេះ ចេះឲ្យគេកោត បើសិនធ្វើឆោត ឆោតឲ្យគេអាណិត។

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.

The Google map is correct, this very small island is a few meters only off the coast. I had no clue a bridge and walkway had been set up by the Chinese.

I hate to be a pedant but meercats are found only in Africa. Long swim to Cambodia.
