The land was a swamp until the year 2000,[1] but it is now being developed as a residential and commercial area and could become a separate Phnom Penh municipality.
A neighborhood named "Elysée" has a style inspired by Paris.[2] In other areas, skyskrapers are under construction with help from China.[3]
Almost all of the island is in Chamkar Mon Section.[4]
