Khan Chroy Changvar

Chroy Changvar is subdivided into 5 Sangkats and 22 Phums.^[2][3]

Chroy Changva is the name of the point at the confluence of the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers. The word chroy (written jroy in the Khmer script) is fairly straightforward and refers to a piece of land jutting out into the water, while changva (written caṅvā) is of uncertain origin. There are two words that are homophones in Khmer: one, written caṅvā like the place name, refers to the fish known as the bleak, while the other, written cravā, refers to an oar. Both derivations would be consistent with the fact that this district was historically supported by fishing activity. An alternate etymology, proposed by François Martini, would be to derive "changva" from the word jvā, a blanket term for Chams, Malays, and Javanese, with an added nasal infix. This would be consistent with the fact that the Chroy Changva district was historically inhabited primarily by members of these groups. Saveros Pou suggested that similar examples of nasal infixes in Khmer, along with the presence of ethnic-group-derived place names like Kampong Cham, gave the derivation from "jvā" some credibility.^{[4]: 437–8}

OCIC is developing a 380-hectare neighbourhood in Chroy Changvar called Chroy Changvar Bay, home to convention centers, universities (including CamTech and RUFA), and key institutions such as the GDT building and Khmer Enterprise.^[5][6]
