Members of the ruling party and opposition on a National Assembly working group will continue their talks this evening to strengthen their so-called “culture of dialogue.” They will also discuss accusations from members of both the Cambodian People’s Party and Cambodia National Rescue Party that attacks from each side are undermining the agreement they previously reached to inject civility into politics, party officials said yesterday.

CPP vice president Sar Kheng and acting CNRP president Kem Sokha will each lead delegations of five for the talks, which will start today at 5 pm. CNRP spokesman Yem Ponhearith said that no agenda for the talks had been set. He said both sides woud try to reach a shared agreement for both parties.
