STOP being ignorant stupid: Please inform your Senator about this fact. THIS QUOTE : from Dear Mr. Keo: "As you probably know, Prime Minister Hun Sen was declared the winner of Cambodia’s recent elections, and the ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CCP) won a total of 90 out of 123 possible seats. This year’s elections were monitored by international observers, including 47 teams from the U.S. embassy. As you mentioned in your letter, observers identified problems involving CCP domination over the airwaves, particularly among private television stations, and over voter access to polling stations. However, observers also reported considerable improvements compared to previous elections in Cambodia, and they commended efforts to reconcile local election complaints by the National Election Committee and to eliminate hundreds of thousands of "ghost voters" from the voter registration list. I believe that the U.S. should continue to do what it can to ensure that any unresolved problems with the Cambodian elections are addressed, and I will continue to support policies that keep Cambodia on a steady path toward improving transparency and accountability in government, strengthening civil society, and reducing corruption.Thank you again for keeping me advised of your views.
