Parties Must Work Together, To Ensure Legacy, Expert Says

Cambodian political officials should begin thinking about the legacy they are leaving future generations, with a new political environment following gains by the opposition in 2013, an analyst says. The ruling party and opposition need to now work together, to move the country forward, after decades of political conflict, Chheang Vannarith, a lecturer at the University of Leeds, told VOA Khmer in a TV studio interview this week. “If both parties can’t work together, the losers are the entire Cambodian people,” he said.
