Cambodia  Parliament election Dates 2018

Cambodia  Parliament election Date: 29 July 2018

The previous election of 28 July 2013, saw the fourth consecutive victory of the Cambodian People's Party, gaining 68 seats of the National Assembly and the opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party occupying the rest of the 55 seats. Despite their huge gain in seats, the opposition denied the results and accused the ruling party of poll fraud. As a result, the CNRP boycotted parliament in September 2013 and vows not to enter parliament until a legitimate electoral reform. The disputed election results led to the outbreak of widespread anti-government protests.

The Royal Government of Cambodia organises the general elections on July 29, 2018, according to a decision signed by Prime Minister Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen on July 28, 2017.

Sunday July 29, 2018 will be the date for the sixth parliamentary election, it said.
