Yes, Bank of China does seems to dominate the branding of the building desprite such a small lightbox compare to Canadian Bank's logo.

and you know for about 5 seconds, I think their logo looks the same.

Canadian Bank need to do something to the building so it still looks like theirs.

and they better add the word sign ''Canadia Bank Tower'' below the logo

Saigoneseguy · August 12th, 2011, 01:10 PM

Yes, it would be nice to see more skyscrapers with Khmer words.

They have it at ground level, not so obvious, and not quite visible in most of the buildings photos.

Or perhaps I am misunderstanding you, aren't I? It's hard to parse your sentence.

yes I agree, HN is more beautifull than Phnompenh, i'm sure. But I dont mention the modern area in HN. I have been in HN one time, 5 months ago, I have visited some old town and some modern area such as Trung Hoa Nhan Cinh, My Dinh stadium, Keangnam, cIPUTRA...

In my post, I mean PhP have a better looking street than in HN!

but I'm not sure about that, just my opinion

uhm because the urban pattern in the Old Quarter is thousand years old??? Speaking in the tradititional sense of a typical East asian city, the streets are supposed to be narrow. They are too precious to get replaced by wide extravangt boulevards. The so-called narrow streets in Hanoi is the pride of every Hanoian, because of their high cultural and historical value.
The urban pattern which was develop recently e.g. in the Westside looks different of course, fitting to current socio-economic circumstances

I don't know why but Phnom Penh skyscrapers are kind out of place. I think they should move them to a new urban area, leave the center with Khmer architecture only.

Yes I agree, Phnom Penh has at least 3 cluster of high-rise buildings (another 1 is forming soon) which are located in different places. There is one on the upper part of Monivong Boulevard (OCIC Tower, Royal Tower, Vattanac Capital Tower) and the other cluster is at the lower part of Monivong (GT42, Phnom Penh Tower, De Castle Royal Condominium etc), and Riverside (Rose Condominium, Sofitel Hotel and other projects which has been cancelled. This area will be home to many high-rise buildings in the next 10 years, plenty of reclaimed land available)

Camko City is a satellite city and it is too far away from the existing CBD of Phnom Penh. Similar background with District 1 and Phu My Hung in HCMC.
