Administration

According to the 1998 census, Mean Chey consisted of eight Sangkats with a total population of 157,112;[2] the population recorded by the 2008 census was 266,865.[1]

In 2010 Khan Mean Chey was expanded by incorporating four communes from Kien Svay District, Kandal Province: Kbal Kaoh, Preaek Aeng, Preaek Thmei and Veal Sbov.[3] In 2013, the latter four Sangkats, along with Chbar Ampov Ti Muoy, Chbar Ampov Ti Pir, Nirouth and Preaek Pra formed a new entity, Khan Chbar Ampov,[4][5] taking Mean Chey's number of Sangkats to four. In 2016, Stueng Mean Chey was split in three separate Sangkats and Boeng Tumpun was split in two parts.[4]

As of 2020, Mean Chey is subdivided into seven Sangkats (communes) and 59 Phums (villages).[4]
