[geovalin]

THE  National Election Committee (NEC) on Wednesday urged Cambodian embassies around the world to join in efforts to encourage citizens living abroad to exercise their right to vote in the July 23 national election.

 

“We call on all Cambodians to come and exercise their right to vote. We also request the cooperation of our embassies to help spread the word (about National Election) to Cambodians who are living or working abroad,” NEC said in a statement. The national election will be held on Sunday, July 23, from 7am to 3pm. Citizens with a valid Cambodian identity card and having their names on the voter list can vote in the National Election.

 

The NEC added that if their name is not on the voter list or they do not have a Cambodian identity card – expired or missing or damaged – the citizen can vote using the election identification document. The election identification document will be issued for 30 days from June 22 to July 21 at the Commune Election Committee and it must be validated by the commune / district authorities in order to vote.
