Outgoing Prime Minister Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen who is also President of the ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) this morning reaffirmed that CPP will keep the same leadership structure.
At the inauguration ceremony of the third ring road held in Kandal province, Samdech Techo Hun Sen said he will continue to be the Party President, while the four Vice Presidents will also remain the same.
“The older generation will not leave the politics, I am still the president of the ruling party, accompanied by the four vice presidents,” he underlined.
Even though Samdech Vibol Sena Pheakdei Say Chhum has requested to retire after the Senate Election in February 2024, he will continue to serve the party as a Vice President, the same as the other three Vice Presidents, including Samdech Krolahom Sar Kheng, Samdech Pichey Sena Tea Banh, and Samdech Kittisangahapundit Men Sam An.
Founded on June 28, 1951, CPP was formerly known as the Kampuchea People’s Revolutionary Party. It was renamed CPP in 1991. The party has played an indispensable role in the peace-seeking process, reconstruction and development of Cambodia, and now in the country’s efforts to maintain peace, defend independence and boost more development.
