Phnom Penh (FN), Jun. 28 – Cambodian prime minister Hun Sen, in his capacity as the president of the Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) said that the glorious victory of the CPP in the 5th mandate communal election clearly showed that the Cambodian people need the leadership role of the CPP, both at the national and at the commune levels.

The premier spoke in the 71st anniversary of the founding of the Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) on Tuesday (Jun 28).

“With this victory, the CPP will have a stronger basis for victory in the upcoming 7th National Assembly elections in 2023, and will defeat the tactics and hostile actions of the extremist and ill-willed opposition who go against the will and interests of the people,” the premier added.

“On behalf of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee, the honorary president of the Party and myself, I would like to express my deepest respect and gratitude to the members of the Party, the youth, and compatriots from all walks of life who have strong faith in the leadership of the CPP and who voted overwhelmingly for the CPP,” Samdech added.

In response to this trust, the party is committed to making full efforts to successfully implement the 2022-2027 commune development policy, which has already been announced to our compatriots, to ensure more prosperous communes throughout the country, and the people will have more prosperous life, and continue to live in harmony, both in the family, in the community, as well as in society as a whole.

The 5th mandate communal election on 5 June 2022, which was attended by 17 political parties, was successfully held in a neutral, free and safe political environment.
