Cambodian NRP appoints new secretary general

The Norodom Ranariddh Party (NRP) of Cambodia has appointed You Hokry, former second vice-president of the National Assembly, as the new secretary general of NRP to prepare for the 2008 general election, officials said in Phnom Penh on Tuesday.

Prince Norodom Ranariddh, President of the NRP, decided to appoint You Hockry as the secretary general of party because he was loyal to Ranariddh and he also accompanied the prince for a long time, Muth Chantha, spokesman of NRP told reporters at the party headquarters in Phnom Penh.

The appointment of You Hockry will make the NRP stronger in party structure and make it better to join the election in 2008, Muth Chantha said, adding that You Hockry was well-supported by party members.

Meanwhile, Chim Seakleng, former secretary general of NRP, was appointed as the vice-president of NRP, Muth Chantha said.

Chim Seakleng was former Phnom Penh governor in the 1990s and a parliamentary member in 2003, he added.

Ranariddh was ousted from the co-ruling Funcinpec Party in October 2006 and then established NRP. He stayed overseas ever since.

He was sentenced in absentia to 18 months in jail earlier this year for pocketing party money when he headed Funcinpec.

Funcinpec is gradually going to disappear. Finally, CPP will play and kick this FUNC like a ball in their win win strategy....

There uncountable accurate lessons we should learn from the tactic of CPP....

When SRP and NRP join together...democracy will be the winner...but we should not consider Rannaridh in our colleagues...he is too corrupted and loose person...

You need odd number of parties to
be successfull, 11:31, and you
don't want a party of Thomico,
Ranarith, and Sam Rainsy either
because then you'll have 2 royalists
to dominate a non-royalist in
a vote. In such a case, the merged
party appears as a Royalist party.
Get it?

a party of CPP (Communist Preo youn
Party), ah Hun Sen and ah Heng Sam
Rin either because then they all
are 2 youn servants to do criminals
against humanity in Cambodia in the
vote. In such a case, ah Hun Sen is ah Kbal Youn Khloun Sat'.

Yes, 8:33, I agree with you 100%.
The Royalist have been doing this
to people from the beginning of
time. You would think by the 21st
century they are smart enough to
know right from wrong, but sadly,
I don't see any sign of that.
What's a shame?
