The project spans more than 180 hectares and includes five-star hotels, residential and commercial zones, casinos, bungalows, beach sports, public spaces, and transportation such as boats and a cable car.
According to Sokha, the company will only develop 140 hectares, leaving the rest for local residents and the local government administration office.
"Koh Tonsay is a tourism-friendly island. A white sandy beach surrounds the island. This will bring more tourists to the island," he added.
Sokha did not specify a completion date for the project.
The government intends to construct a tourism port on Tonsay to facilitate local and tourist travel.
