Original report from Phnom Penh
04 August 2008
The Constitutional Council dismissed an election complaint by the Sam Rainsy Party Friday, claiming it was not in its jurisdiction under election law.
The party had complained against the National Election Committee, for violation of people's rights by omitting names of eligible voters from last month's national election.
SRP lawmaker Yim Sovann said Monday the decision by the Constitutional Council was "not fair at all."
"We have enough evidence for them to decide on the complaint," he said. "This shows that the Constitutional Council has no independence, and there is nothing surprising about the letter, because Constitutional Council members are really CPP members."
The council had made a "political" decision, not a legal won, he added.
Hang Puthea, executive director of Nicfec, expressed regret at the council's decision.
"The Constiutional councils declared that its decision was fair, bu tin a democratic society, each fairness is supported by the other. But right now, this decision is not supported by the opposition party, so the fairness is in the mystery.
Constitutional Council spokesman Penn Thol declined further comment Monday.

Hi All Cambodian Compatriots,
Can we just stop these nonsence shit to rest? Nothing is going to change the election result and please and please moving forward...............................
A Stupid Cambodian Abroad,
This group of monkeys and their doggy supporters have no shame.
What a bunch of nerds? Anytime someone disagreed with them, they are either Yuon or CPP control.
Go back to where you came from fools. we don't need you here.
Stope to talk about election resulted. It's nonsene to spent such our time to deal with it. From my point of view, no need election for next 5 years, CPP will claim 120 seats for the next 5 years.
Ah Siam has planned all too-well and determined to play in this game in the long term!!!! Why during election and in the election year?????
Ah Siam have knowns all too well that CPP want to make its popularity nationwide in Cambodia that's why Ah Siam has been willing to play in the PVs's listed bid for the World Heritage. First Ah Siam with Ah Samak planned to claim only the surrounding area 4.6km, yet it looked stupit coz Ah Thai especailly Ah Thief, thug king of Siam have planned long to claim even the temple!!!!!!!!
-And coz Ah Samak (known as Ah Thaksin's proxy) not favored by Ah Siam King and military has long favored Ah Siam King, so Ah PAD exploits this incident that Ah Samak endorsed our proposal to list PVs as world heritage. As Samak claimed before the PVs has been inscribed as world heritage that Cambodia will legitimately claim the temple, BUT NOT THE SURROUNDING LANDS!!!!!
-And to follow through with Ah Siam king and Ah Siam military, Ah Samak now reveals his secret, cunning plan and ambition with the military deployment to claim the 4.6km CAMBODIA'S LAND SO AS NOT TO BEING LOOKED TRAITOR AND BE OUSTED BY AH KING SIAM!!!!!!
-And Samak has played it right coz RCG with HUN Xen looked to win only the ELECTION, BUT NEGLECT TO SEE THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE COUNTRY!!!!
THE QUESTION IS: WHO HAS BEEN TRICKED AND TRAPPED??? HUN XEN'S AND CLIQUES, ABSOLUTELY!!!! YOU WIN THE TITLE AND YOU ARE CAPABLE TO WIN BY ANY MEANS ON YOUR PEOPLE, YET YOU LOOK STUPID, BRAINLESS WITH SHORT-SIGHTED VISIONS OF LEADERSHIP SKILL; ALONG WITH PROTECTION OF YOUR POWER AND CLAN'S WELL-BEING.
-THIS BUNCH OF CURRENT LEADERS WILL BECOME THE BIG TRAITORS IN CAMBODIA HISTORY IN THIS MODERN TIME!!!!!!
