Family of Hun Sen Assistant, General Receive Plots on Rapidly Dwindling Lake

The filling of Phnom Penh’s Boeng Tamok lake is continuing briskly as the government allocated more landfill plots to people close to government and military leaders. Boeng Tamok, considered one of Phnom Penh’s “last lakes,” has been carved up for private individuals as well as state institutions that have at least in some cases sold the plots to pay for renovations.

In sub-decrees from November that were made public this week, four more sets of plots totaling to 219 hectares were distributed. These include five locations totaling 122 hectares given to Som Sokdaramonuerika, Som Somalika and Som Sokdararikio; 70 hectares to Say Sorphea; 6 hectares to Chim Pisey; and 19 hectares to Chen Srunheng.

All the decrees were signed by Prime Minister Hun Sen. The connections for Pisey and Srunheng could not immediately be found on Thursday.

However, the siblings Sokdaramonuerika, Somalika and Sokdararikio are directors of Emario Shonan Marine and Emario Property and Investment.
