The National Assembly dismisses criticisms that the effectiveness of the organization continues to decline

National Assembly spokesman on Wednesday reacted completely to the report of the National Assembly and National Assembly deputies of the 4th legislature of the National Assembly 5, 2017, which assessed that the effectiveness of the National Assembly would continue to be lower than in 2016. The report of the Committee for Free and Fair Election in Cambodia (COMFREL) shows that nearly all the activities in parliament in 2017 Is down and mixed with adverse effects and intense voter inequality. But for the National Assembly, everything is in line with the process of political agreement and never ignores the country's laws. .

National Assembly spokesman Leng Peng Long told Radio France earlier in the day that COMFREL's report was not independent and had no basis in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the National Assembly. According to Mr. Leng Peng Long, the National Assembly in the fifth mandate in 2017 was smooth because each member did not violate the law, so the effectiveness of the National Assembly was not decreasing.It should be noted that in early January 2018, COMFREL has released a report on its observations on the effectiveness of the National Assembly's activities in 2017. According to an assessment based on actual observations, COMFREL sees that the ruling party lawmakers have initiated and unilaterally decided to amend the law on the party. Politically until the dissolution of the CNRP, which is a new tactic that adversely affects voters' votes by dividing parliamentary seats. Representatives of the CNRP distributed to non-elected parties.

In addition, it was observed that the adoption of the draft and the proposed amendments to 17 laws was approved by the unilateral party by the CNRP's boycotts and without discussion. Discuss some draft or proposed laws. But for Leng Peng Long, whether one party or multiparty, it is not a matter of approving each of the draft laws, because those laws are already taking into account the interests of the people.In addition to these points, COMFREL also assessed that the activities of the National Assembly's Commission on Basic Action, Parliamentary Action, the Summoning of the Ministers to clarify the issues and the intervention of the Parliament and the National Assembly were similarly downward compared to Activities in 2016 and 2015. After all, there are 10 MPs, 5 from the Cambodian People's Party and 5 from the CNRP, who have always been active in raising their voices in the full-term meeting of the National Assembly. .
