THE CEROC

 According to this agreement, the flexibility of the NEC’s Nine Committee Members is realistic. Many countries such as USA, Australia, France and Canada etc. allow its citizens to withdraw their citizenship by submitting application to the Immigration Ministry. Withdrawing and re-applying is feasible. It only takes time to go through with all the legal procedures. Suspension her France and Canadian citizenship is feasible for Dr. Pung Chev Kek in order to oblige her prestigious role as the Ninth Member of the NEC.

However, The CEROC is concerning the unalienable rights and accessibility to be able to vote in Cambodia elections. While the Nine Committee Members of NEC can vote to select the Secretary and Vice Secretary, they must be able to support all Khmer Overseas to vote as well in accordance to the spirit of Cambodia Constitution and Universal Rights Declaration of the United Nations.

However, the amendment of the National Constitution to paving way for Independent and Effective NEC must include some clause to clearly articulate that “All Khmer people regardless of where they are living, they must be able to vote in Cambodia elections”.
