Boeng Keng Kang I (BKKI; Khmer: បឹងកេងកងទី១) is a quarter (sangkat) in Boeng Keng Kang Section (formerly in Chamkar Mon Section), Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
It has the nickname NGOville due to the presence of non-governmental organizations. Melanie Brew of the Phnom Penh Post described it as a "hip, trendy area" in 2008.[1] Brew added that "There is also a feeling for some that the area is a little bit too cosmopolitan or international and is divided or separated from the "real" Cambodia."[1]
