The National Election Committee on Sunday received its first batch of 1,600 computers to be used for next month’s voter registration process, with the remaining 800 expected to arrive today.

Following long delays, NEC member and voter registration department chief Top Rithy said the committee was now aiming to load 150 to 200 computers a day with the voter registration software before dispatching them to the provinces.

“The government cooperated with the NEC and issued a letter to UNOPS [UN Office for Project Services], after which they cleared customs,” he added, referring to earlier reports that the consignment had been delayed following a customs holdup.
