South coast holds development key
Real estate and hotel developers have identified the southern coast of Cambodia as having tourism potential to encourage more business investment. Developers and investors gathered in a Real Estate and Construction Forum on Friday to discuss the possibilities of developing the coastal provinces, particularly in Preah Sihanouk, where the number of international hotels and the hospitality outlets is limited. The connectivity of infrastructure – the airport and the deep sea port – is the main factor making the area a tourist hot spot. Tom O’Sullivan, CEO of Realestate.com.kh, said that rising numbers of tourists and flights to the area were increasing the demand for hospitality services in Preah Sihanouk.
