The Morodok Techo National Sports Complex (Khmer: ពហុកីឡាដ្ឋានជាតិមរតកតេជោ) is an approved but unbuilt Olympic-style facility in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The complex would be Cambodia’s first modern multipurpose and international standard sports facility.[1] It is set to host the 2023 Southeast Asian Games.
Plan
The current plans include six arenas and a huge weights training gym for up to 1,500 elite athletes. The 60,000-seat main stadium will cover a plot of nine hectares and house a football pitch and running track.
A multipurpose indoor stadium on 3.6 hectares will seat 15,000 spectators while a swimming centre on a similarly sized parcel of land will be able to host 6,000 aquatics fanatics.
There is also a proposed 3,700-seat badminton and table tennis hall, a 3,700-seat gymnastics and traditional sports hall and a 3,000-seat sports hall for basketball, volleyball and futsal.
Also in the mix are plans for four six-storey blocks of offices and four eight-storey blocks to accommodate athletes, which will include 400 rooms and two eating halls.
Sea Games
Cambodia has been approved to host 2023 Southeast Asian Games.
