1.2 Development strategy of greater Mekong River Sub-region

Development overview
It includes Yunnan Province of China and Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam,
with a total area of about 2.563 million square kilometers and a total population of about 320
million. It is among the few presently un-developed areas in the world, and its economic and
social development level is relatively backward in both Asia and in the world. Lancang River –
Mekong River, flowing across this subregion, is an important international river in Asia, with a
length of 4880km.
Development features of Cambodia in the subregion
Urbanization level
The whole urbanization level is low and it developed slowly, during the 60 years from 1950 to
2010, the urbanization level in Cambodia only increased by less than 13 percentage points.
Comparision of urbanization of various countries at greater Mekong River Sub-region (1950-2000)

The biggest city
The urban population of Phnom Penh is nearly 45% of the total urban population in the country, which is
only lower than Bangkok and higher than that of Rangoon and Ho Chi Minh City, this high proportion
results in greater attraction of the capital city and unbalanced development of domestic economy.

2.2 Space structure
The main urban area is located in Four Arm Way; the main suburb area
is in the west, and the industrial zone is in three directions of the city;
Main urban area: one center, two zones and two towns
One center: the central urban area, a concentrated urban construction Suburban area Main urban area
area of Phnom Penh, it is old as a whole with scattered functions, and
the land use arrangement is orderless.
Two zones: historical style zone and Wangu Lake idle zone
Historical style zone: mainly with the Imperial Palace, Museum, Wat
Phnom Hill, Independence Monument and Cambodia and Vietnam
Friendship Memorial Monument as the core, to demonstrate the long Industrial zone
history and culture of Cambodia. Boeung Kak Lake idle zone: it was
originally an important urban lake in the Phnom Penh New Town, and
was late filled up for construction and development, but it is now in an Industrial zone
idle state because of some contradictions.
 Tuol Kork New City: the Tuol Kork New City and Diamond Island
New town of : it is located on the north side, as a newly constructed
urban area, with fairly good road traffic systems as a whole and the land
has been developed in an orderly manner. Diamond Island: presently the
most potential urban area of Phnom Penh, mainly for conference and
exhibition, high-end residence, sports and leisure-making, commerce
and recreation.
Suburban area: mainly with residence and scattered small factories.
Industrial zone: with concentrated distribution of factories. 21
2.3 Land use arrangement

Land for residence
They are mainly in 2 types: row house and apartment; citizens
mostly buy row houses, one row house has an area of 4m wide and
16m long; it mainly has 3 storeys, the ground floor is mainly as
small shops by street, the self-build houses are in different quality;
apartments are bought by foreign investors or a small number of
Cambodians.
Land for public management and public service facilities
It is fairly complete in Phnom Penh now, with various kinds of
land for administrative offices, education and medical service,
sports, cultural and historical relics, foreign affairs and religious
affairs.
Land for commerce and service facilities
In Phnom Penh, there are 3 traditional small commodity
transaction venues, and 1 newly built commercial complex; some
land is for automobile sales, and others are mainly for hotels and
restaurants and leisure-making commerce associated with tourism.
Land for industrial use
It is mainly in the suburb area, and mixed with land for residence,
no independent industrial part area has been formed.
City roads
The main trunk road network of the city has been basically
formed, the road grade is not high. Phnom Penh Airport is located
to the southwest of the city, and there are two freight railway lines.
Parks and green land
The main green land systems are: the two green land axial lines
of the Independence Monument Memorial Square and Cambodia
and Vietnam Friendship Memorial Monument; along Mekong River
is a river side leisure-making belt, and Wat Phnom Hill, Imperial
Palace and Diamond Island area the main green land spots.
22
2.4 Development of industries

Obvious industrial first place degree
Most industrial enterprises in Cambodia are concentrated
in Phnom Penh City, and in the dry season, many farmers Overall Development Plan for Phnom Penh
come to Phnom Penh for work from all places of the New Town,Kingdom of Cambodia
country.
 Industrial areas are in small scale and cooperation is

lacking
At present, a number of concentrated industrial zones
have been formed in Phnom Penh, however, there is no
industrial positioning and direction and no effective
mechanism of industrial division of work and cooperation
has been established because of lacking in planning and
guidance.
Associated facilities are lagging behind in part areas
At present, associated infrastructures are lagging behind Distribution of金边现状工业集中区分布
current concentrated industrial
in industrial areas, and most of the public service facilities areas in Phnom Penh
were built by people spontaneously.
Apparent orientation by highway traffic
Presently in Phnom Penh City, railway and water way
transport are backward, transport mainly depends on
highway, the industrial layout is apparently oriented by
highway traffic, so that the main industrial areas are located
along highways No. 4 and No. 5.
Status quo of concentrated industrial areas
23
2.5 Construction of communications facilities

Airport
Phnom Penh International Airport is located to the west of Phnom Penh City, the capital of Cambodia. The runway is 3000m long and 45m wide,
equivalent to a Grade 4D airport in China. The size of the airport cannot meet the daily increasing transport demand, it is close to the urban area, about
only 8km, with dense residence areas around it, therefore it is quite difficult to modify and expand it.
Railway
The only two railways of Cambodia join in Phnom Penh. The Phnom Penh-Battambang Railway runs through Kandal Province, Kampong Speu Province,
Kampong Chhnang Province, Pursat Province and Battambang Province, with Battambang the second biggest city of Cambodia, as the destination, and
then it extends via Sisophon to Poipet, an important town at the Cambodia-Thailand border, to link with the railway in Thailand, which leads to Bangkok,
the capital of Thailand. The Phnom Penh - Sihanouk Port Railway runs through Kandal Province, Kampong Speu Province, Takeo Province and Kampot
Province, to Sihanouk Port, the largest sea port of Cambodia. The two railways can only transport cargo, and are of narrow track, with low transport
capacity.
Highways
Highways are in an outward radiating pattern, with highways Nos. 6, 5, 4, 3, 21 and 1 from the north in an anti-clockwise order, leading to the down
town area of Phnom Penh, the roads are narrow, equivalent to Grade II and III highways of China.
Navigation channels
Along the Mekong River, a channel of 160km from Kampong Cham Province to Cambodia-Vietnam border via Phnom Penh is navigable all the year
round, with a water depth of 5m, accessible for ships of 4000~5000t, equivalent to Grade I navigation channel in inland rivers of China (accessible for
ships of 3000t, with water depth of 3.5~4.0m, a channel width of 70-125m in single straight line, and turning radius of 670-1200m).
City roads
The road network density is high, but with irrational grading and many oblique intersections of roads, forming many distorted multi-intersections due
to lacking in planning and guidance, at intersections, traffic is organized in the form of loop island, and traffic jam is likely.
Public transport
There are only 3 public transport lines, one is Old Market ─ Old Stadium ─ No. 70 Road ─ No. 273 Road ─ Telecom Tower ─ Kim Il Sung Boulevard ─ Mao
Zedong Boulevard ─ Monivong Boulevard ─ Takhmau; the second is from Jiuzhipai of No. 5 Highway ─ Old Stadium ─ Boulevard ─ No. 1 Highway Lotus
Lake. The third is from kampuchea krom ─ ─ Russia Boulevard.
Low speed traffic
Because of climate factor, low speed traffic such as walking and bicycle is little used, and low speed traffic is mainly demonstrated by tourists traveling
and evening walking by residents, mainly near the Imperial Palace on the west side of Mekong River.
Traffic management
The management is relatively backward, there is no signal light at intersections and the traffic is organized spontaneously, the management awareness
of traffic police needs to be raised.
24
2.6 Municipal utilities

Water supply works
Water is supplied from Mekong River, and the raw water is all treated in water plant before supply to Phnom Penh City.
Water supply pipe networks are not complete, in some areas, water supply pipe networks are in branch arrangement, unable to effectively guarantee
water supply safety.
Water drainage works
Sewage water is collected in the pipe network and sent to the wastewater treatment plant for treatment, at present, the coverage rate of sewage
water pipe network is low, and in some areas, sewage water is directly discharged into river course.
This results in pollution to the water environment; with the construction of the city, some water areas of river and lake are occupied, in addition, the
rainwater pipe network coverage is low and the pipe diameter is small, so the city water drainage and anti-flooding capacity is low, and water logging
often occurs in case of heavy rain.
Power supply works
The grid is weak, there is no power plant within the city area, and the demand for power is met mainly by external grid. With the continual
development of city of Phnom Penh, the current grid is unable to meet the load demand, the electrical energy quality is low, and it is difficult to ensure
voltage level and frequency. With the operation of the coal-fired power plant at Sihanouk Port, the shortage of power supply has been alleviated to a
certain extent, however, at peak load hours in dry season, power interruption still occurs in turns.
Fuel gas works
As restricted by early economic conditions and development policy in the country, no piping natural gas has been developed in Phnom Penh at
present, and bottled LPG is the main form of gas consumption by residents and public facilities.
Communication projects
At present, mobile communication and broadcasting and TV signals have realized full coverage, the wideband communication rate and 4G signal
coverage need to be further increased, in some areas, the communication facilities are old, affecting the communication service standard.
Environmental protection and sanitation works
Domestic wastes are normally sent to waste collection points, transferred manually or mechanically to waste transfer stations, and finally to landfill for
wastes.
The environmental sanitation facilities are backward, and the mechanization level is low for waste collection and transfer.
Anti-flood works
The average elevation of ground is about 14m, and it can basically cope with flood with a return period of 100 years in Mekong River, Tonle Sap Lake
and Basha River.
The water surface rate is low, the rainwater pipe diameter is small, and the water drainage capacity of the city is low.
Fire protection facilities
Fire fighting facilities are lacking, every fire fighting station must protect an excessively large area, and fire engines are lacking and professional fire
fighting personnel are not sufficient in number.

1 新城现状建设
Status quo of new town construction Overall Development Plan for Phnom Penh
1.1 Scope of planning

The Phnom Penh New Town covered in this planning is located to the
east of Mekong River, separated from the old urban area of Phnom Penh
by the river, the planned zone has an area of 333 square kilometers,
extending to the north bank of Mekong River to the south, the east bank
of Mekong River to the west, to Kandal Province and to the north, and to
the border with Prey Veng Province to the east.
1.2 Land form and topography
The area within the planned range has a flat terrain, with crisscross
ditches and gullies, slightly high in the peripheral and low in the middle.
The ground elevation is about 18m at the highest location and about 3m
at the lowest. The planned area has crisscross of rivers, with rich water
surfaces and good natural conditions. The current water surface rate is
16% of the planned area, and in the rainy season, the flooded area is 85%
of the planned area.
1.3 Administrative division
 The scope of planning covers Phnom Penh City and the Kandal city and
Leon city of Kandal Province and Prey Veng Province.
Map of the range of Phnom Penh New Town of Cambodia
1.4 Demographic structure
Currently there are about 10000 households of residents, with a
population of about 40000 people.
27
1.7 Roads traffic

External traffic
Land accesses: No. 8 highway to the north side of the
planned north boundary; No. 6 highway on the west
side of Mekong River; and No. 380 highway close to the
west border of planning. Connection with Phnom Penh
will mainly depends on No. 9 highway.
Water way: ferry is used to contact with Phnom Penh
urban area.
Map status quo land use of the range of Phnom Penh New Town of Cambodia
Internal traffic
Land road: it is mainly of earth roads, with a width of
about 5m, linking the scattered residential spots, high
ways and ferries, but no road network system has been
formed. The road conditions are bad, and in rainy
season, part of the soil roads will be flooded.
Water way: in the rainy season, residents use ships as
supplement to land traffic.
28
1.9 Comprehensive disaster prevention

Flood prevention and stagnated water drainage
The planned area is located to the east of Mekong River and
Basha River, and Targe River flows through it. Targe River
flows into Mekong River in its lower reaches, and Mekong
River and Basha River finally flows into the Thailand Bay.
According to statistic data of 54 years, Mekong River has a
highest water level of 11.2m and lowest water level of 1.5m,
with an average water level of 5~6m; within the planned
area, there is a rich river and lake water system, the average
water level in dry season is about 6~8m; in rainy season, as
part of flood water from the upper reaches flow into the
area, about 80% of the land in the planned area is flooded,
except residential spots at high places. Within the planned
area, there is no effective flood prevention facility, the anti-
flood facility is not complete, leaving the area apt to the
hazard of flood from upper reaches. Water system analysis map of the Phnom Penh New Town, Cambodia
Anti-seismic disaster
The planned area is free of natural disasters such as
earthquake and tsunami, suitable for residence and city
development.
1.10 Ecological environment
The planned area is fairly rich in water resources, with high
coverage of farmland and fruit forests, with the unique
advantage of locating by lakes and waters. The boeng veal
samnab Lake is a natural resource not yet developed in
Phnom Penh area at present, with good and beautiful natural
environment suitable for human dwelling, the total area of
the lake is about 28 square kilometers, and the ecological
environment is also quite advantageous.

2.1 Necessity of development

National development demand
Demand from economic takeoff and cultural rejuvenation in Cambodia
The global economic pattern is experiencing a process of rising of the Atlantic Rim – Pacific Rim – India Ocean Rim in succession.
In recent years, many countries in the world are attaching increasing importance to the development of Southeast Asian countries, and
worked out a series of relevant development strategies, to deepen the cooperation with these countries, in the meantime, the Southeast
Asian countries have also started a series of cooperation frameworks, such as ASEAN, development strategy of Greater Mekong River
Subregion, the one-belt and one-road strategy of China, the Europe-Cambodia cooperation strategy framework, and Cambodia has got a
new major opportunity of development as an important part of Southeast Asia.
Cambodia is also seeking for opportunity

to make breakthrough in development,
therefore, it has put forth the “four-angle
strategy” and the “National development
strategic plan 2014-2018”, to seek ways to
speed up the economic growth in
Cambodia.
Where is the carrier? – Can the
old city of Phnom Penh, as a
political, economic, cultural and 柬埔寨
industrial center, meet the demand
from economic takeoff in Cambodia?
Change of development history of global economic pattern
30
2.1Necessity
2.1 开发必要性 of development
Development demand of Phnom Penh
As the city expands rapidly in size, the associated facilities and institutional policies cannot follow
closely.
The open policy and low labor price have effectively attracted foreign investment, many industrial and
trade projects have come to Phnom Penh, resulting in sharp expansion of population and land,
demanding quick construction of urban infrastructures, and the existing infrastructures in the old urban
area also need renovation and completion, however, the existing policy system has restricted the rapid
renovation and construction of the old urban area, and the private ownership of land also heavily
restricts the refreshing of the old city.
The expansion of the city is accompanied with serious problem of traffic, the existing roads in Phnom
Penh are narrow, the road network grade is generally low, and most main trunk roads only have two
lanes in both directions. Construction of flyovers can slightly alleviate the present jams, but it is not a
long-term solution. The traffic jam in Phnom Penh can never be solved with a few flyovers, and their
construction speed may fall behind the growth of cars, therefore, the chaotic traffic in Phnom Penh will
daily restrict the development of the city.
The city is lacking in the flavor of modernization, and the styles and features of the old city also need
protection
In general, the styles and features of Phnom Penh City appear to be old. In addition to restriction by
economic strength, the existing planning pattern and land system also constitute huge barriers to the
modernization of Phnom Penh City, the land price in the core districts of Phnom Penh is surprisingly
high, terrifying many investors for high-end industries. And the excessively obsolete city status in turn
affected the confidence of investors.
The old city of Phnom Penh has the deposit of Khmer culture and history, and also the impression of
French ruling, some street and lane markets still keep the unique urban tissue of Phnom Penh,
therefore, to better and completely protect and demonstrate the urban features of Phnom Penh and
reform it, the only way is to build a new town first out of the existing city frame and then rectify the old
city again, so that the existing styles and flavor of the old city can be protected while better
demonstrating the features of a modernized city of Phnom Penh.
The old city of Phnom Penh has its restrictions, lacking in motive force and development features,
difficult to support the development demand in Cambodia;
Where is the way out? Build a Phnom Penh New Town! Status quo city style map of Phnom Penh

2.1Necessity
2.1 开发必要性 of development
Significance and role of developing the Phnom Penh New Town

Construct a carrier for rapid rise of Cambodia in the Indian Ocean Rim South Asia
Subcontinent, to provide a powerful support to the economic takeoff and cultural
rejuvenation of Cambodia.
Solve the city problems faced by Phnom Penh in its present development, and quickly
build Phnom Penh into one of the economic, industrial, trade, cultural and touring centers
of Cambodia and in the whole Southeast Asia region.
The development of Phnom Penh New Town will be a lead, to link the new and old
towns, to promote each other for joint development, build an open special economic zone
in Cambodia and drive up the new leap-forward of the whole economy in Cambodia.
32
2.2 Analysis of the development conditions for

the new town
Development advantages
Natural conditions
A flat terrain: the maximum elevation difference is only
15m;
Dense distribution of rivers and lakes: mainly as
Mekong River and Targe River, with main water systems;
Good ecological conditions: mainly as ecological
farmland and forest land.
Location
It is separated from the urban area of Phnom Penh by
only a river, so that it can easily link with the old urban
area, to promote each other for joint development.
Resources conditions
Land resource: large land area, easy to develop;
Water system resource: rivers and lakes make it easy to
build ecological and urban space landscape in the new
town.
Potential for traffic Status quo real view of Phnom Penh New Town
It will include large planned regional traffic facilities
such as city ring expressway of Phnom Penh, Trans-Asia
Express Railway, Mekong River Shipping Dock, and New
Phnom Penh International Airport, to provide effective
support in traffic for the future Phnom Penh New Town.

2.2 Analysis of the development

conditions for the new town
Development disadvantages
Ecological safety
The land is low, with large flooding area in
rainy season, therefore great difficulty in flood
prevention and drainage of stagnated water.
Cross-river traffic links
It is separated from the old city of Phnom
Penh by a river, but there is no bridge on the
river, and the connection is made by ferries
and the China Bridge 15km upstream.
Infrastructure support
The municipal infrastructures such as water
supply, sewage water, power supply and gas
supply are not complete in the old city of
Phnom Penh, as they are not sufficient for the Status quo water design feature and flooding area in rainy season
existing city, it is difficult for them to support
the construction of Phnom Penh New Town.
Relocation and settlement of existing
villages
At present, only small part of land is used,
mainly as villages, temples and associated
primary schools along Targe River and Mekong
River, but the demolition and relocation will be
difficult because of the private ownership of
land.

Pudong New District in Shanghai, China

Reasons for construction of the new district
Solve the city problems faced by Shanghai in its development, such as irrational
economic structure, restricted space distribution and limit in institutional
mechanism;
Drive up the new leap-forward of economy in Yangtze River Delta and Yangtze
River Basin with the development of Pudong as dragon’s head;
Link it with the old city of Shanghai, to promote each other for joint development,
and provide opportunity for the development of Shanghai;
Pudong New District has good natural conditions and sufficient land, the
development cost is low and geographic conditions are good.
Overview of construction
Pudong New District has a planned area of 400 square kilometers, with a
population of 2.5 million, and the centralized area for urbanization is 200 square
kilometers, with a population of about 2 million. Pudong New District was
constructed to provide more space for the central urban area, with the stress to
develop the tertiary industry, while secondary industry be developed moderately, to
drive up the development of the new city with the secondary and tertiary
industries, to shape a multi-axis and multi-core development pattern, and form five
comprehensive subdistricts, namely, Waigaoqiao Bonded Area, Lujiazui Finance and
Trade Zone, Qingningsi and Zhoujiazui industrial park areas and Zhangjiang High-
tech Park.
History of development
In the initial period, scientific planning was made for developing Pudong at a high
start level, and the construction of soft and hard infrastructures was pushed
forward step by step.
In the construction phase, the foundation development and function development
were pushed ahead in parallel, with the secondary and tertiary industries leading
the development, and stress on building new urban functions of finance and trade,
modern industry, modern agriculture and high-tech industries.
In the medium phase, it shifted from major development to a new period with
emphasis on functions, management and innovation. Industrial development
shifted from laying the foundation to focusing on innovation capacity, and the
motive force of development shifted from mainly depending on support by
preferential policies from the central finance and investment driving to mainly
depending on comprehensive advantages of institutional innovation and expansion
of opening-up, and the function to serve the whole country kept on enhancing. Real view comparison before and after the planning
and construction of Pudong New District 36
Suzhou Industrial Park, China

Reasons for construction of the new district
This industrial park is a cooperation program of the governments of China and
Singapore, starting a new form of mutual benefit economic and technological
cooperation between China and foreign countries. It was set up with the approval
by the State Council in Feb. 1994, and the implementation was started in May
1994.
Suzhou Industrial Park has a planned area of 278 square kilometers, and planned
population of 1.35 million, the land area for city construction is about 140 square
kilometers. The initial planning was for a multi-center strip structure, with clearly
defined functional zones, areas for residence were arranged around commercial
and trade centers and neighboring centers, while industrial land arranged on the
external side of the park, the development and construction pattern was
determined to first develop land for industrial use and construct infrastructures, Structure map of master plan for Suzhou Industrial Park
and then develop residence and commercial zones. With the expansion of the
park, the space structure gradually became a cross axial lines, forming the present
space structure of “dual core ‘cross’ axis and multiple plots in four zones” with
Jinji Lake as the center of the park.
After 6 years of initial construction, and through preparation of a series of
planning and the construction of infrastructure of the first phase, the
development and investment attraction for industrial plots in 8 square kilometers
was completed in the initial phase.
Then the 4-year accelerated development period was started, and the
development and construction of zones II and III launched, with industrial
development as the lead, basically completing the development of infrastructures
for 70 square kilometers;
To raise the comprehensive strength of the park, since 2005, it adjusted the
development objectives and strategies of phases evolving round the core of
transition and development, to speed up the building of a highland for industries,
innovation and professionals, successfully become a national level demonstration

Putrajaya, Malaysia
Reasons for construction of the new capital
Excessively dense population and limited land area;
Available land for city construction was saturated, difficult to realize a
modern city concept of modernization and informatization;
Consideration on separation of imperial power from political power in
modern politics.
Putrajaya is located 35km to the south of Kuala Lumpur. The planned area is
about 750 square kilometers, it is a new political center, to be built mainly to
alleviate the traffic pressure in the biggest city Kuala Lumpur. The
construction of Putrajaya was first started in 1996, as part of the multimedia
super-corridor project in the national development plan of Malaysia, known
as the “silicon valley” of Malaysia, the corridor includes the city center of
Kuala Lumpur, the administrative center at Putrajaya, the electronic
information town, the high-tech technology incubation and innovation park
and Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
Putrajaya is a new modernized city with complete planning and design,
stressing environmental protection everywhere, and it is now in the initial
construction and completion phase;
Ecological siting: the new city is built on land mainly as a forest, with the
ecological concept as the lead, about 38% land of the city is developed into
parks, lakes and wetland parks;
A two-way 6-lane road was built first, to strengthen the rapid connection
between the old and new capitals.
A new electronic administrative center is built for the government in the
new city by fully relying on planning, in the meantime, the concept of smart
city is gradually extended to public service items such as smart school,
remote medical service, R&D platform and E-commerce. 布城规划建设实景

from the shoreline is safer strategically;
It will enable better control of the powerful ethnic minorities in the central and
north of Myanmar, to effectively promote the unification of the country;
It is located in the central area of the country, with powerful ramifying
capacity, helpful to the administration by the government, and it can also get rid
of the framework of the original city and can better demonstrate the new
outlook of the city.
Naypyidaw is located in the mountainous area in the central part of Myanmar,
400km to the north of Rangoon, and became the new capital of Myanmar in
2005. The total area of Naypyidaw is 7054 square kilometers (including the
affiliated Pyinmana County, Dagon Town and Mines Town), and now it has a
population of about 925,000 people. The new city is built in a valley, covering a
land of about 10 square kilometers as its initial size.
The city of Naypyidaw is built on a wild land, and the initial construction has
already completed in conjunction with the planning;
The administration took the lead, administrative office facilities such as the

3 Development strategy Overall Development Plan for Phnom Penh
3.3 Ecological restrictions

 Environmental protection measures
 Water pollution control
Protect drinking water sources; take Mekong as the source of drinking water; set up a drinking water source
protection area at the water intake to prevent wastewater from being directly discharged into the area.
Strengthen wastewater treatment; adhere to the sequence principle of “underground to aboveground and municipal
infrastructure to buildings” during construction; raise the wastewater collection and treatment rate during
construction of wastewater pipelines and roads.
Popularize low-impact development (“LID”) and construction; encourage employment of LID technologies such as
low elevation greenbelts, wet ponds, stormwater wetlands, grassed swales, and vegetated buffer strips; establish LID
rainwater systems; control urban non-point source pollution.
Air pollution control
Optimize and adjust the energy structure; encourage the use of clean energy such as natural gas, liquefied petroleum
gas and manufactured gas; reduce the use of high-pollution fuels such as coal and heavy oil.
Use new technologies to reduce pollutant discharge; set up desulphurization and denitrification equipment for
enterprises (e.g., thermal power plants under planning) that will emit a large amount of SO2 and NOx.
Control urban fugitive dust pollution ; strengthen management of construction sites in core areas in the New Town;
comprehensively implement closed construction; subject building materials, muck, etc. that are likely to cause
fugitive dust pollution to enclosed transportation and stacking. Timely water the construction sites and their
surrounding areas to remove dust and cover bare earthen floors. Implement urban greening projects, strengthen
construction of urban greenbelts, reduce bare land, and control ground fugitive dust.
Noise pollution control
Improve construction of urban areas which meet the standards for noise control; strengthen control of noise of social
activities.
Reasonably lay out industrial enterprises and avoid mixing of plants and residential districts.
Advocate the use of construction equipment that is advanced in technology and low in noise.
Establish and improve urban road networks and optimize the traffic order in the New Town. Set up noise reduction
barriers and protect sensitive areas such as residential quarters and office areas on both sides of arterial roads.

3.3 Ecological restrictions

 LID measures
 LID idea
Try to use natural and ecological conditions to deal with rainwater and flood water. Control the management of runoff
quality and quantity via scattered and small-scale sources, and reduce impacts of development and construction on the
natural ecology.
Reduce ground runoff and catchment of the municipal pipe network by taking measures involving “impoundment,
detention, infiltration and drainage”.
 LID measures Low elevation greenbelt
During rainy seasons, soil in the scope of the planning land approaches the saturated water content, so it will be difficult to
adopt the method of infiltration, and the rainwater is planned to be subjected to “impoundment, detention and drainage”.
Establish and improve new rainwater pipelines and increase LID measures. The LID measures specifically include low
elevation greenbelts, wet ponds, stormwater wetlands, grassed swales and vegetated buffer strips.
Low elevation greenbelts can be extensively applied to urban buildings, residential districts, green spaces and squares.
Wet ponds can be applied to sites with spatial conditions, such as buildings, residential districts, urban green spaces and
squares.
Stormwater wetlands can be applied to areas with certain spatial conditions, such as buildings, residential districts, urban
roads, urban green spaces and waterfronts.
Grassed swales can be applied to surrounding structures of impervious surfaces, such as buildings, roads in residential
districts, squares and parking lots.
Vegetated buffer strips can be applied to waterfront greenbelts of the urban water system.

1 Population forecasting Overall Development Plan for Phnom Penh
 Calculation of population size

 Forecasting of total population in Cambodia
Based on the annual average growth rate in the total population of Cambodia of 1.4%, it is estimated that the total population in
Cambodia will reach 22 million in 2050.
Based on the annual average growth rate in the Cambodian national urbanization level of 2%, it is estimated that the urbanization rate
in Cambodia will reach 45% and the urban population 9.9 million in 2050. Based on the proportion of the urban population in Phnom
Penh in the urban population of the entire country of 40%, it is estimated that the urban population in Phnom Penh will reach 4 million
in 2050, increased by 2 million.
 Forecasting of growth in population in Phnom Penh
 Based on the annual average growth rate in the population of Phnom Penh of 2.5%, it is estimated that the total population in Phnom
Penh will reach 5 million in 2050, increased by 3 million.
 Based on the growth in the urban population in the entire country and Phnom Penh, the urban population
in Phnom Penh is planned to be 4-5 million.
 Estimation of ecological capacity
 Based on the environment capacity of Mekong, provided that the per-capita water consumption in Phnom Penh New Town is 400
L/person/day, the urban wastewater discharge coefficient is 0.8, and the daily variation coefficient is 1.15, the per-capita wastewater
discharge quantity will be 278 L/person/day. After the wastewater is subjected to centralized treatment by wastewater treatment
plants, the effluent quality will meet the class I B discharge standard in the Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal
Wastewater Treatment Plant (China), namely, the chemical oxygen demand is 50 mg/L and ammonia nitrogen 8 mg/L and the
wastewater treatment rate is above 90%. Therefore, under the objective of total amount control of the chemical oxygen demand, the
reasonable carrying population is 2.86 million, and under the objective of total mount control of ammonia nitrogen, the reasonable
carrying population is 1.78 million. In conclusion, the population that the water environment in Phnom Penh New Town can
reasonably carry does not exceed 1.78 million.
 Based on the new town construction, industrial development and ecological capacity, as well as the
forecasted urban population in Phnom Penh, the population in Phnom Penh New Town should be 1-1.5
million.

2 Land suitability evaluation Overall Development Plan for Phnom Penh
 The land embraces excellent natural ecology and rich landscape resources, so scientifically
determining the scope of areas suitable for construction is the precondition of reasonable
planning. The land suitability evaluation will be performed by employing the GIS multi-factor
analysis technology, focusing on the principle of ecology first, and using four key factors that are
directly in relation to the base, namely, river system, farmland & woodland, terrain elevation, and
rainy season inundation area. Each factor will be evaluated and analyzed, and the four factors will
be overlaid according to certain weights, so as to get the final land suitability evaluation result
which will be used as a basis for land layout to provide effective guidance for the urban space
layout.
 According to the multi-factor evaluation and overlay analysis, the areas on the east and west
which have high elevations are suitable for construction, the rainy season inundation area in the
middle part are not suitable for construction, and other areas are fit for construction. Land suitability

Driven by core areas, point & axis development

The public service facilities in the New Town are intensively laid out and are mainly
arranged based on two core areas (high-speed rail station and Mekong riverside business
district) and both sides of the axis, to form an administration & commerce district around
the high-speed rail station and a riverside commerce & culture area along Mekong.
The axis is 12.5 km long: 5.3 km from the high-speed rail station to Jinhu + 7.2 km from
Jinhu to Mekong. The axis is an extension of the traditional axis and context of Phnom
Penh, representing that Phnom Penh starts walking to the world. The palace symbolizes
the long history of Phnom Penh, and Phnom Penh New Town is the embodiment of the
development of Phnom Penh, which jointly construct a distinct city image.
