The island has been made accessible via a road bridge, completed in 2011 as part of a development initiative of the Russian Koh Puos Investment Group (KPIG). A long term government concession granted in 2006 was followed by large scale planning of "a high-end property project". Since, a number of project alterations and subsequent applications for permission at the Council of the Development of Cambodia have led to many delays.
