The final results from Cambodia's April 1 commune councils election have met with varied responses from contending political parties, with support from the winner and dissatisfaction from the opposition, the Rasmei Kampuchea daily reported Wednesday.
According to the figures announced Tuesday by the National Election Committee (NEC), the ruling Cambodian People's Party (CPP) won 1,591 out of the total 1,621 commune-chief seats throughout the country, the Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) won 28, and the co-ruling Funcinpec Party won just two seats. The Norodom Ranariddh Party ( NRP) and Hang Dara Democratic Movement Party came fourth and fifth respectively with only commune-chief assistant and council-member seats.
CPP President Chea Sim welcomed the results, calling the election a successful, free and fair competition, the newspaper said.
"In the name of the Cambodian People's Party, I would like to solemnly announce my support for the result of the second mandate commune councils election, which the National Election Committee has officially announced," Chea Sim was quoted by the daily as saying.
"We must respect and protect the election results and continue to do our utmost to realize the wishes of the people," he added.
A Funcinpec deputy secretary general echoed the statements of his coalition partner, telling the paper that they welcome and support the official result of the election.However, he added that the general procedures of the NEC in the elections were a bit difficult and complicated.
The forerunner SRP, on the other hand, did not fully accept the result, citing unresolved complaints over irregularities at a number of communes.
In Poipet commune of Banteay Meanchey province, for example, only 30 percent of registered voters actually went to vote, according to SRP Secretary General Mu Sochua, who added that village chiefs and commune chiefs were present at polling stations on the election day, which may have had intimidated voters, the paper said.
