Hun Sen Says CPP Ready for Negotiate with Opposition Party
The senior officials from
Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) were ready to negotiate with the counterparts
from opposition party, while Premier Hun Sen felt constrained from taking part
as he was in mourning for the recent death of his father. If necessary, he
would talk directly with opposition leader Mr. Sam Rainsy, said PM Hun Sen
during the construction site for a flyover bridge at Stung Meanchey yesterday. During
his few days absence, there was a rumor that he has been forced to resign his
post as the Prime Minister and replace by H.E. Sok An. He would like to confirm
that he is still in the country and fulfills his post as the Prime Minister for
the 5th legislature of the National Assembly. Any party win or lose is not
important, but the main point is that we have to unify the country and work for
the sake of our entire nations, he added. (Rasmei Kampuchea, 1 August 2013)
