1024070 Hectares of Cambodia? Who is Bon Bon World?

Bon Bon World Investments and Consulting Group Ltd., has made arrangements for a string of large concessions with the Cambodian Government totaling 1024070 hectares! Who is Bon Bon World?

According to their website they are here:

#50A, Street 334, Sangkat Boeng Keng Kang 1,
Khan Chamkar Mon, Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Tel: 855 23 993 248
Fax: 855 23 993 2480

A quiet house in Phnom Penh with little sign of life, according to an AMC reader.

And here:

845 UN Plaza, New York, NY 10017, USA
Tel: 1-800 747 9155
Fax: 1-212 223 4660

Bon Bon's website reveals little: some of the text has been cribbed from other sites, and some their projects appear to be fake. Yet the photographs are instructive, showing Bon Bon World staff in meetings with a series of Cambodian officials and prominent Cambodian People's Party leadership.

Interestingly, Bon Bon World also lists the questionable Koh Puos development project as part of their portfolio of projects.

AltMapCambodia now reveals internal Bon World documents (large PDF) showing the location of concessions apparently negotiated between Bon Bon World and the Kingdom of Cambodia.

Koh Puos Investment Group

Rumors have swirled around KPIG’s activities in Sihanoukville, and it is thought by many that KPIG’s $300 million Snake Island development would serve as a front for Russian money laundering. The arrest of the Chairman, Russian businessman Alexander Trofimov, who was charged with debauchery for sex with fourteen year old girl, may mean the end of KPIG in Cambodia. AltMapCambodia has obtained original documents from KPIG's proposals.
