This Khmer new year occasion of 2558, the CEROC Committees and all members would like to WISH YOU AND FAMILY A HAPPY, HEALTHY AND SUCCESSFUL YEAR. May you all are blessed by THE FIVE BLESSINGS OF LORD BUDDHA: LONGEVITY, WELL-BEING, HAPPINESS, HEALTHINESS, AND PROSPERITY.
CEROCERS would like to express deep gratitude for your kind support to the vision and mission of our campaign. Your involvement and petition signing are our realistic collective effort to strive for another level of rescuing our nation.
Our rights to vote in Cambodia elections is an unalienable right and we are just asking for clear stating in the law as well as the facilitating for all Cambodians Overseas to vote without obstacle.
We have already undertaken great tasks to rescue our nation through remittances, donation, active involvement in political forums and sharing all good news through social media; but our next step is the Right to Vote that we are not only achieving our obligation as the Cambodian citizens but to impact policy in Cambodia through our constituents.
Sincerely Yours,
Sophoan Seng
CEROC Team Leader

Dear Brothers & Sisters;
It has been nearly a month now that CEROC has actively campaigned for the Right to Vote of all Cambodians Overseas. For this historical and collective effort, the CEROCERS, supporters and sympathizers are actively working hard to spread this news and collect petition signatures as much as they can. During this solemn Khmer New Year Celebration of passing from year of 2557 to ascending towards to the year of 2558, CEROC is extremely colloquial and ambitious.
Beside of regular promotion through individual contact, family gathering, public forums, ceremonies and traditional gathering such as Khmer New Year, CEROC has used print media such as T-shirts, posters, flyers and artistic logos to outreach and ads our campaign omnipresently. Below are selective print media for your reference.
HAPPY KHMER NEW YEAR!
Why India is so good at organising elections
Apr 6th 2014, 23:50 by A.R. | DELHI
INDIA’S general election is a massive affair. From April 7th to May 12th, across seven phases, 815m people will be eligible to cast votes in the biggest democratic exercise on Earth. Since the previous one, in 2009, an extra 100m people have been added to the voters’ roll. For all its cost and complications, it is expected to go smoothly. Political parties may break limits on what they are supposed to spend, but elections in India are broadly clean, in the sense that results are not rigged. Turnout is roughly the same as in Western democracies: 60-70% of the electorate are expected to take part in the 16th general election since independence. Nor does anybody see a serious threat of violence, even in areas afflicted by Maoist or other insurgents. The contrast with bloody elections experienced by the neighbours—Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal and even the Maldives—could not be more stark.
On the face of it, such a triumph is puzzling. Ask Indians about the capacity of their state, and the typical reaction is dismissive. Much else organised by public officials is notably shoddy: try making use of state-run schools or hospitals, getting help from a policeman, or relying on food-subsidy schemes. Corruption, waste, delays and mismanagement are depressingly common. Notice, too, the embarrassing failures of India’s navy, plagued by fatal accidents in the past year, the prolonged lack of investment in the national railways, or the state’s failure to build enough roads, power lines or ports. How can India get the electoral process to work so well, when much else is done so badly?
