Concentrating on Cambodia's post-pandemic recovery, the Group began work on Ream City Cambodia, an 834-hectare coastal development project with a masterplan by Singapore's Surbana Jurong. The project aims to transform Sihanoukville into a sustainable ecosystem of tourism, commercial, and residential activity capable of housing up to 130,000 people.
