The purpose of this Political Forum is to enable the major political parties to outline their policies on key issues prior to the national election on 28 July 2013, and to ensure that Cambodian citizens, civil society organizations, and non-profit organizations have access to relevant information about the different parties and are thus encouraged to participate in the national election.
