Victory of Local Election Reflects indispensable Leadership of CPP


The landslide victory of the ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) in the fifth-mandate Commune/Sangkat Council Election on June 5, 2022 shows that the Cambodian people still need the CPP’s role in continuing to lead Cambodia toward prosperity.

The remarks were made by CPP Honorary President Samdech Akka Moha Ponhea Chakrei Heng Samrin, while he and Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen, CPP President, were presiding over the opening ceremony of the Party Central Committee’s Extraordinary Conference held here at its headquarters this morning.

Nearly 3,500 participants who are central committee members and senior representatives of the party from different ministries and institutions and at sub-national level were invited to the meeting.

Samdech Heng Samrin also laid stress on the party’s success in overcoming all obstacles, allowing Cambodia to advance gradually, thanks to the right chosen path, and support and participation from the people.

Samdech Heng Samrin thanked all his party members for their efforts in fulfilling the party’s duties, and his compatriots as well as near and far foreign friends, development partners, national and international organisations for their great contribution to the cause of the Cambodian nation and people.

Founded in 1951, CPP has been the ruling political party of Cambodia since 1979.
