Development and preparation

Following the host selection announcement, Prime Minister Hun Sen approved the final design of the Games’ main stadium.^[1] During a state visit by Hun Sen to Beijing in May 2014, Chinese President Xi Jinping promised to fund the construction of the main stadium of the new multi-purpose sports complex on the outskirts of Phnom Penh in Sen Sok. The 60,000-seat main stadium, which is estimated to cost about $100 million and will be built by a Chinese construction firm, will be completed between 2019 and 2020 with a Chinese grant covering the entire project. A multipurpose arena, the Morodok Techo National Sports Complex will house an Olympic swimming pool, an outdoor football pitch, a running track, tennis courts and dormitories for athletes.^[3]
