Boeung Kak (Khmer: បឹងកក់) is an area situated in Khan Daun Penh and Khan Toul Kork in the north of the capital city of Cambodia, Phnom Penh. It was covered by largest urban wetland in Phnom Penh, prior to the Shukaku Inc. land project. Residential areas, businesses, restaurants, hotels, embassies and other local businesses previously surrounded the area of the lake. The lake itself was 90 hectares big. In 2007 the Cambodian government made an agreement with the company Shukaku Inc. stating that the government would lease the land to Shukaku Inc. for 99 years. This agreement has resulted in the filling of the lake with sand in order for the company to build condominiums and other complexes on the land. The change of the lake and the area surrounding the lake has had several social and environmental impacts.
