The construction of Kampot Tourism Port in the Kampot coastal province was achieved at 93.41 percent as of Mar. 22, and is expected to complete by June 30, 2022.

The update was shared by the Ministry of the Public Works and Transport (MPWT) following the inspection visit of Senior Minister and Minister of MPWT H.E. Sun Chanthol to the construction site yesterday.

Built under the ADB financing of nearly US$10 million, Kampot Tourism Port broke ground on Aug. 8, 2018 in Tek Chhou district, Kampot province.

Once the construction is finished, Kampot Tourism Port will become an important gateway for national and international tourists, especially those from Thailand and Vietnam, and contributes to the development of the provincial tourism, creating job opportunities, increasing income and improving people’s livelihoods.

The port is part of a project to develop tourism infrastructure for sustainable growth in the Greater Mekong Subregion. AKP
