Phnom Penh (FN), Nov. 21 – Leng Peng Long, Secretary General of the National Assembly (NA) said Monday evening that the NA will appoint new members of the National Election Committee (NEC) after new lawmakers sworn in.

He said the NA has received the resignation letters from three NEC members, who are CNRP quota.

The appointments of NEC new members will be held after new lawmakers of other parties, who took part in the 2013 election, will replace those from former dissolved party.

The three NEC members include Kuoy Bunroeun, Te Manirong and Rong Chhun.

The three NEC members, who are Cambodia National Rescue Party nominees, announced their resignations on Monday, less than a week after the Supreme Court dissolved the opposition party.
