Dara Sakor videos
My videos also go out on YouTube, TikTok, Facebook and Chinese platforms; the group's official films mostly travel through chat groups. A feed forgets a video in two days; here each one has chapters, text and a FAQ, so it can be found and shared any time.
Two kinds of video: those I made for Soksan Sakor Land (Residential Land) Phase I (30 ha) in Dara Sakor, Koh Kong, Cambodia (where Phase I is, what has been built here since 2008, what is nearby), and official films and aerial footage from Coastal City Development Group (promotional films, beaches, festivals, the airport and flights, road works, built-up areas, a 3D plot fly-through, archive footage). Chinese versions: 视频. YouTube channel: Dara Sakor · Soksan Sakor Land.
