Hun Sen and his gangster CPP eliminate 800,000 voters from the voting list
because they knew, those voters will not vote for them.
And now Hun Sen declare poll winners, what the shame.

Easy to understand. If he don't win he will not step down then our country will turn into crisis or military coup, so every thing will be worse. People understand well about the situation. Not your term now SRP. People also want to change our leader but not now maybe another 5 or 10 years.

SRP please go to assembly and swear for your post with patience and wait for the opportunity. If you don't go now every thing will be over. Do something for our voter. Don't give up your seats.
