Cambodian proposed new rules for contest poll

Cambodian politicians face a new rule that bans them from contesting polls if they fail to vote. The regulation aims to promote political engagement and accountability among elected officials.

Politicians are now required to participate in voting processes to maintain their eligibility for future elections. This measure encourages elected representatives to actively participate in decision-making and fulfill their democratic responsibilities.

The rule underscores the importance of civic duty and ensures politicians remain connected to the electoral process. The move aims to strengthen democratic practices and enhance public trust in the political system. Failure to comply with the voting requirement will result in the disqualification of politicians from future electoral contests.
