Development conglomerate the Royal Group of Cambodia announced plans to transform Koh Rong island into a eco-friendly tourist destination with the development of an airport, marina, port, resorts, hotels and golf courses.
The island is less than one hour’s flight from Bangkok, and the project will focus on high-end, sustainable tourism, with the first phase of development set to be completed within five years.

"Key to the eco-strategy is that all development partners conform to recycling and low-energy use, with minimal use of high-energy consuming materials," said David Simister, chairman of CBRE Thailand, the advisor and agent for developing the island.

Koh Rong island development plans include:

•An international airport in the centre of the island
•A working seaport to service ferries, equipment and supply shipments
•A separate marina to accommodate pleasure boats, yachts and cruise ships, with a boardwalk of boutiques, restaurants, bars and guesthouses.
•Three golf courses
