The Phnom Penh city authority issued a directive to the 11 political parties participating in the election, telling them not to organize campaign parade along major city streets such as the Sihanouk Boulevard, the Monivong Boulevard, the Mao Tse Toung Boulevard, and near the round about of the Monument of Independence. Furthermore, political parties are prevented from entering Phnom Penh markets also, nor are the campaign parades allowed there. These restrictions will take effect starting 26 June, the first day of the election campaign, and it will last until 25 July, i.e. one day prior to the election date. The city explained that these restrictions are imposed in order to preserve public order and prevent traffic jams. The city directives were already sent to the 11 political parties participating in the upcoming 27 July election.

I'd like to also add that any political campaign "activities" in Long Beach, in the United States, and elsewhere are also prohibited.
The Campaign parade idea came from Zimbabwe.
HRP of Ah Kem Sokha ask for parade!
