As the property crisis pushed many projects into bankruptcy, the Phnom Penh Department of Land Management, Urban Planning, Construction and Cadastre intervened and mediated to resolve disputes involving 48 projects and more than 10,000 households. In addition to settling the disputes, technical officials placed boundary markers for plot owners. A total of 678 land and construction disputes were resolved through intervention at the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction.
Department director Sarin Vanna said that, alongside its achievements in the capital, the technical team had extended its cooperation to other provinces. The department helped with systematic land registration and the distribution of ownership titles for more than 270,000 plots in Kampong Speu and more than 30,000 in Ratanakiri, strengthening legal security for residents’ property ownership.
Addressing public concerns about other prominent projects, the director clarified that Borey Mon Dany (បុរី ម៉ន ដានី), Project 29 in Kampong Speu; Borey Leng Navatra (បុរី ឡេង ណាវ៉ាត្រា) in Kandal; and Borey Piphop Dei Meas (បុរីពិភពដីមាស) and the Chea Saron company (ក្រុមហ៊ុន ជា សារ៉ន) in Kampot fall under the jurisdiction and dispute-resolution responsibilities of their respective provincial authorities.
