Nhiek Bun Chhay, executive president of the royalist Funcinpec Party, said the government was trying hard to improve democracy in Cambodia. "The elections are conducted in a free and democratic process," he added.
But opposition Sam Rainsy Party spokesman Yim Sovan said land seizures without proper compensation and a culture of impunity persisted in Cambodia. He also questioned the independence of judicial and electoral institutions.
