Young Women for Democracy - Romduol

“I am confident that people will vote for me because I am from this village. I am involved in the struggle of the people to find better ways for their daily survival" - Romduol

By Mu Sochua

Born in the Bak Roteh village (in Khmer “the broken cart”) , Romduol is one of seven children in a family where education has always been a priority. Her parents worked as sellers in the market but their income was very limited. However they were able to loan Romduol enough money to attend the Battambang University.

At 25, she has already completed her Bachelor degree in accounting and has been an active party member since 2006. She leads the youth movement in this cluster of villages with skills and experiences she has acquired from youth training from the International Republican Institute (IRI) and from her active participation in the Sam Rainsy Party Youth Wing.

Her commitment to the empowerment of youth has gained her great recognition from her peers and the party leadership.

She will run for the first time as candidate for the 2012 commune elections. The party is confident that she will win her seat and has trusted her with a winning position on the party list, in Battambang province-North West of Cambodia.

Does American support democracy?
If so, why American do business with communist China and Vietnam.

The vast majority of the American people love support the democracy, but the government is unpredictable especially its foreign policy.
