The team elected on the 17 May 2009 election held its first working session. Sar Kheng, the minister of Interior, took opportunity of the occasion to launch a barb at Sam Rainsy.

The new Phnom Penh municipal council was shooed in on Saturday morning, at the city hall, and it was presided by Sar Kheng, the deputy-PM and minister of Interior. The new council team was elected on 17 May through a non-universal election. The results o fthe election was announced on 27 May by the NEC. The council counts 21 councilors, 7 of whom belong to the Sam Rainsy Party (SRP). Mab Sarin, Phnom Penh city vice-governor, was the CPP candidate who was chosen as the president of the municipal council. As usual, the power transfer ceremony will be held 14 days after the announcement of the results.

Sar Kheng also replied to Sam Rainsy’s accusation. The latter declared that “the CPP did not want to decentralize, i.e. the CPP wants absolute power.” “I confirm that this is not possible. In reality, we are already two political parties that work inside the same institution. If the CPP wants to occupy the power by itself only, there is no need to organize elections, all that it needed to do are nominations, that’s it,” Sar Kheng noted.

I think we should propose a new university in Phnom Penh (or on the outskirts of the capital), and name if after the popular "PPU." The new university shall be named the "People's Party University."

What do you think, Manat?

PPU
