- Irrigation work :
The commune owns 2 sets of reservoir and canals, built during the
Khmer Rouge, and currently out-of-use. The
rehabilitation of the irrigation system should allow proper farming on 80 to
160 hectares of paddy fields. |

- Road construction :
The 15
small villages are linked together by 4 roads. One of them gets
impossible to cross during the rainy season. The repairing of this
road would implement a proper communication, circulation and
exchange system in the commune.
