A total of 12 political parties have signed up to compete in the July polls, the National Election Committee said Monday, as the registration period ended.
The number was about half of those registered for other elections, due to a lack of money and time for small groups wishing to contest, said NEC Secretary-General Tep Nitha.
Sam Rainsy Party lawmaker Kuy Bunroeun said Monday the commune councils had made registration a difficult process, hampering smaller parties.
Muth Chantha, spokesman for the Norodom Ranariddh Party, said some commune councils did not respect the law, eating up a lot of his party’s time.
The Sangkum Khmer Niyum Party, whose application was the only one to be rejected, said it planned to appeal to the constitutional council.
Registration ran from April 18 to May 12; elections are slated for July 27.

No surprise, registration of car, business, ..., or political party can't never be difficult, but if you are a cyclo drivers with fake westerner degree, it will be quite a challenge. Furthermore, nobody seems to know anything about the difficulty of the registration process except for the SRP.
Therefore, how can the SRP run the country, if they find it difficult just to register their party into the election.
the 11 parties fool themselves in the cpp is the winner even the children know that via cheating term after term ... election is not needed... cpp is the winner and the runner up to coalition is funcipec. arun the big time bun ranny ass' kisser.... bookmark my message here and compare with the result you will see that!!!!!!!!!!
Real democracy is when a tiny country has too many political parties; and that country is my country, Cambodia!
I agree. I love cambodia and I hate Sam Rainsy. I wish he were a VN.
Wishes are never be tue. Stop wishing the nonsense; it's just a waste of time.
CPP already VN, and plus you...why do you want him VN, over my body!
Well, if you want to be winner, then VN is the way to go. On the other hand, if you want to be loser and suffering, then Ah Liar Sam Rainsy is the way to go.
If you support Ah Kwak Hun Xen mean you love Youn. If you love Cambodia/Cambodian you must to vote for Sam Rainsy.
How can a stupid one like Hun Xen lead a country?
Neay Kwang
