A French expert has suggested that Phnom Penh's landmark building should be constructed in the Chaktomuk river intersection area. Frederic Mauret, the city's French technical expert for the 2020 municipal master plan, said Tuesday "we recommend the establishment of a cultural highrise at Chaktomuk river area. It is a unique and invaluable location and would provide an identifiable international landmark for the city, like the Sydney Opera House in Australia". Mauret further proposed the development of highrise buildings along the river in the Chaktomuk and Chroy Changvar areas. Mab Sarin, deputy governor of Phnom Penh, said that the 2020 master plan has been finalised and submitted to the Council of Ministers. "We hope the Phnom Penh municipal master plan will be approved by the government soon".
