WorldBridge Sport Village (WBSV), which is built on 6 hectares of prime land in Chroy Changvar, comprises a total of 12 buildings and 265 landed properties. The massive development recently completed construction of all of its building structures and 80% of the building decorations and held its topping-off ceremony for Tower Two.
The site is set to be on track to house the thousands of athletes that will call the area home for the SEA Games 2023 in May, which is one of the most exciting events in Cambodia in 2023 (if not the decade).
Prime Area For Investment
The huge property development at WBSV is carefully being monitored by Neak Oknha Sear Rithy, Chairman of the Board of WorldBridge Group, one of Cambodia's leading real estate investors as the development will be a key cornerstone of the Southeast Asian Games next year.
The first large-scale commercial and residential areas of WorldBridge Sport Village will open soon in the Samdech Techo Dragon City which is located north of the capital in an area primed for growth and development.
The potential downtown area of this new satellite city near Phnom Penh is surrounded by extensive connecting public transport infrastructure projects such as new bridges and new roads, and the area has seen the addition of modern hospitals, national and international schools, gymnasiums, a 5-star golf course, shopping malls, supermarkets, and other entertainment venues.
Being located in a key growth area and near the Samdech Techo National Stadium along National Road 6A - WorldBridge Sport Village is a fantastic destination and investment for those looking to enter the property market who are looking to secure their first home, which will potentially a long-term generation property and asset.
Sothavatey Mom, Country Manager for FazWaz Cambodia previously said of the area and the impact of the SEA Games; “The property market will benefit in the long-term - this will happen due to the exposure from the international media in the build-up to and during the Games and the international audience and visitors that are expected to attend in Cambodia including corporate sponsors.”
Vatey added “Chroy Changvar should continue its growth momentum with low-rise developments for the next decade and along National Road N6. I think most purchases will be condos and office investments in the short term but in the long term, as the demand for people to live in the area beyond the stadium grows, there will be more diverse developments.”
SEA Games 2023 Excitement
Currently, the corporate construction and architecture teams are hard at work to complete the preparation of the development to ensure it will be ready for 2023 SEA Games, which is the perfect opportunity to enhance Cambodia’s image and as a potential investment destination on the regional and global stage.
Despite the impacts of the pandemic, the real estate sector in Cambodia and the projected GDP of 4.5-5% in 2023 and rising in ensuing years in the Kingdom, offer plenty of optimism.
Cambodia is ready to host the foremost major sporting event in its history when the SEA Games comes to these shores from May 5-17 2023, as well the 12th ASEAN Para Games, which are scheduled for June 2023. These are expected to attract more domestic and international visitors to the host cities as well as investors to this region.
Vanguard Investment and Consultancy Services Co., Ltd (Cambodia) Managing Director, Harry Martin IV, whose company is the exclusive property agency for the WorldBridge Sport Village (WBSV) said: “I believe everyone in the region has adapted a ‘wait and see’ attitude over the last two years in terms of property investment or even any form of investment. 
As we have witnessed, many countries have opened up, and we are confident that the market will make a turnaround in 2023. This expectation comes as most, if not all, of the countries in Asia are open again. The enticement of investing is still within many who see the potential opportunities. And Cambodia is definitely on top of that list with the various regional advantages it has to offer.”
The capital will be the centre of attention for the SEA Games and ASEAN Para Games, especially the area around the Morodok Techo National Stadium which will be used for the opening and closing ceremonies. The recently held National Games which was used as a test of the facilities was a hit, and proud nationalism is brewing in anticipation of a milestone event for Cambodia.
