The United States voiced concern on Monday about reports of irregularities in Cambodia's weekend elections and called for a credible investigation.

"We urge all parties and their supporters to continue to act in an orderly and peaceful manner in the post-election period," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.

The Cambodian opposition rejected the results of the polls even though it made significant gains, saying it had been robbed of victory over strongman Premier Hun Sen.

"We are concerned by numerous reported irregularities in the electoral process," Psaki said, adding that Washington had long called on Phnom Penh "to address systemic flaws such as problems in the voter registry and unequal access to the media."

"We call for a transparent and full investigation of all credible reports of irregularities," Psaki told reporters.

It was the worst election result for Cambodia's ruling party since 1998, after the opposition was emboldened by the return from exile of its leader Sam Rainsy, even though he was barred from running.

Hun Sen's Cambodian People's Party (CPP) announced late Sunday it had taken an estimated 68 out of the 123 seats in the lower house, against an increased 55 for the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP).

"We believe that, of course, the Cambodian people should have confidence in the outcome of the election," Psaki added.អំពើ​ហិង្សា​ទាក់ទង​នឹង​ភាពមិន​ប្រក្រតី​ក្នុង​ការ​បោះឆ្នោត​នៅ​កម្ពុជា​បាន ​កើត​មាន​ឡើង​ ហើយ​ស្ងប់​ទៅវិញ​ តែ​ភ្លើង​នេះ​មិន​ទាន់​រលត់​ទាំងស្រុង​ទេ​ ព្រោះ​មូលហេតុ​នៃ​អំពើ​ហិង្សា​នេះ​មិនទាន់​ដោះស្រាយ​នៅ​ឡើយ។​ លោកពិន​ស៊ីសុវណ្ណ​នៃ​វីអូអេ​រាយ​ការណ៍​ពី​រដ្ឋធានី​វ៉ាស៊ីនតោន៕
