Commission for Election Rights of Overseas Cambodians (The CEROC) is honored to express hope and optimistic towards the seven mechanisms to breakthrough the political deadlock that was agreed and signed on July 22, 2014 by the top leaders of the CNRP and the CPP. Although the agreement has not yet been yielded, we have put trust on the political wills of the leaders to put effort to bring about democracy and rule of law for Cambodian people especially the national election that is universal suffrage by allowing Khmers overseas to be able to vote. This pragmatism is paralleled to the various statements by the European Union, the United Nations, USA, Japan and France etc.
Commission for Election Rights of Overseas Cambodians (The CEROC) shall work hard to push and monitor continuously to ensure that our basis rights in joining to vote in all Cambodian elections must not be deprived and violated. To collaborate with all stakeholders to make sure that none of Cambodian is discouraged to exercise their citizenship duties and obligations including to participate with social, political and economical development. To strengthen the abiding by the national constitution and Universal Declaration on Human Rights of the United Nations.
While he is riding on the Swing Gondola at the Calgary Stampede Festival, Mr. Seng Sophoan made an appealing to all Cambodians around the world to sign petition to demand for the Rights to Vote in Cambodia elections. His message is making clear that “no Cambodian citizen shall be marginalized from their full participation in social, economic and political activities in Cambodia”.
His team work is named “The CEROC” or “Commission for Election Rights of Overseas Cambodians” has been established since March 9th, 2014 and this volunteer-based organization has accomplished several things including nearly 3000 petition collections from around the world.
With this prospect, their right to vote is inclusive and NEC must not exclude them although they have lived or worked or studied in foreign countries.
At the end, he inquired the Cambodia NEC to prepare a National Election that is acceptable by international standard, be inclusive, free and fair, and receptive to universal suffrage.
Khmers people who are living around the globe must be able to vote during each national election of Cambodia. Their rights to vote and nation-building is guaranteed by the Cambodia National Constitution and the International Laws.
With this common ground, we have laid down concerted effort to achieve it.
Our nation shall hugely benefit from this.
Our future generation shall hugely benefit from this.
During this course of collective effort, CEROC members are bring fun but functional activities to make awareness among Khmers overseas about the Rights to Vote in Cambodia elections.

Cambodians overseas need right and accessibility to vote in Cambodia elections. Thank you very much CNRP and we are looking forward to hearing from CPP for this prestigious unalienable right of Cambodians overseas worldwide.
It has been nearly a month now that CEROC has actively campaigned for the Right to Vote of all Cambodians Overseas.
