Cambodia’s Developers Again Aim at Stars
By PATRICK BARTA
PHNOM PENH—Cambodia’s low-rise capital city is reaching for the sky—again.
Long known as one of the last major Asian cities without a skyline, Phnom Penh embarked on a high-rise building boom in the middle of the last decade, only to see it derailed by the global financial crisis of 2008 and 2009.

Cambodia Tower in Vietnam?
Today, Chinese and Vietnamese people are celebrating their new year day and I found a special project to share with all of you on this new year. The project is designed by K&B corp, a Vietnamese design and construction company. The project is named Cambodia Tower but we do not know which part of Cambodia this projects have been building. According to discussion thread on Skyscrapercity.com, people are very confused about this project. A guy who is a member on that website provide a picture (second picture) that was shot in Vietnam and he claimed that the Cambodia Tower is in the territory of Vietnam. So why they name a tower in Vietnam Cambodia Tower? It is weird and the company website doesn't write anything besides their 3D pictures. anyone who knows about this projects please kindly share with us here! Thank you!
