Koh Pring, (Khmer: កោះព្រីង, Jambul Island, Koh Prins(former French name) is a Cambodian island in the gulf of Thailand, 64 km off the coastal city of Sihanoukville. Official sources provide no data of civilian communities on the "Outer Islands". Administration falls to the Cambodian navy, as the island lies within the national marine border in which it represents an isolated outpost.^[1]

Geography

Koh Pring is in fact the largest island of a tiny archipelago of 3 islands (Koh Pring, Koh Doung and Koh Trangol). Pring - ព្រីង - is Khmer for Jambul (jambolan, jamblang, or jamun), the fruit of an evergreen, flowering tropical tree.^[2]
