	Hun Sen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He is a key leader of the Cambodian People's Party, which, has governed Cambodia in a coalition with the Funcinpec party since the restoration of multi-party democracy in 1993.
		The coalition was shaken by tensions between Funcinpec leader Prince Norodom Ranariddh and Hun Sen, who in 1997 launched a bloody coup, removing Ranariddh and becoming the country's sole prime minister.
		The elections of July 2003 resulted in a larger majority in the National Assembly for the CPP, with FUNCINPEC losing seats to CPP and the Sam Rainsy Party.

	FUNCINPEC PARTY HRH Prince Norodom Ranariddh
		The party firmly believes that the CC’s decision was erroneous as it did not consider in detail, any of the complaints and has rejected the appeals made by the party on August 11, 1998 as included in the transmittal No. 162/98 and received by the CC on August 13, 1998 at 16:30 PM..
		In its transmittal, the FUNCINPEC party had filed details on procedural irregularities, partiality and intimidation perpetrated by the NEC personnel at the communes and the provincial levels in the run up to the elections, on the polling day and at the counting centers.
		The FUNCINPEC cannot accept the revised formula published in Annex V of the Procedures and Regulations for the Election of the Members of the National Assembly for it failed to have the approval of the NEC members as recorded in its minutes of May 29, 1998.

		Years later, the party, best known by its French acronym Funcinpec, was installed as a legitimate second voice in the government and in 1998 gained control of just fewer than half the country's ministries, two co-ministerships and 43 of 122 seats in the National Assembly.
		Funcinpec is a party of the individual, he says, not a group-think.
		If Funcinpec washed its hands of the government and returned to the jungle as a resistance party, "there would not even be a semblance of democracy abroad," said co-Minister of Defense and senior Funcinpec member Prince Sisowath Sirirath.

		FUNCINPEC and the SRP, in the spirit of national reconciliation and national interest, wish to move forward with a discussion of political programs of the next coalition government with the Cambodian People's Party.
		FUNCINPEC and the SRP believe that the underlying cause of the current deadlock is the lack of trust between the CPP and the opposition parties.
		FUNCINPEC and the SRP advocate that all charges against opposition leaders and leaders of the pro-democracy demonstrations be dropped and that arrest warrants not be used as a form of intimidation or threat.

		The options available to FUNCINPEC on winning the 1993 election were stark: it could have formed a coalition with the CPP and accepted limited access to state power or tried to assert its electoral mandate and face renewed civil war.
		Prince Ranariddh was able to make this transformation almost overnight because FUNCINPEC was, arguably, less a political party with a clear political program than a royal court (in which the prince was surrounded by a small coterie of courtiers) interested in recreating the symbols and structures of the pre-1970 period.
		For FUNCINPEC national reconciliation meant returning to the populist, anti-CPP rhetoric of pre-1993 and embracing its former allies in the KNP, BLDP, and--it hoped--the Khmer Rouge in the newly established National United Front.

	Press Release
		If FUNCINPEC was to withdraw from the government, it would force a general election before schedule and before there was a law or election apparatus in place.
		Although it was borne out of the inherent weakness of FUNCINPEC, it also served as proof that Prince Ranariddh had no new ideas, for this new coalition is really an attempt to recreate the old alliance of the 1980s during the war along the border.
		Although FUNCINPEC security chief Serey Kosal later disputed the events of that evening, the Western and Cambodian media correctly reported that the fighting occurred at the residence of the Police Chief.

	PPP 11/05: Funcinpec crisis
		It is time for Funcinpec members to review the party's past performance and correct mistakes or risk the disappearance of the royalist party.
		The Prince seems to take for granted that the fact that Funcinpec is a royalist party and was founded by the monarch would lead people to vote for the party without putting out a lot of effort.
		The reality is that to survive, Funcinpec has to replace Prince Ranariddh with a new, capable and intelligent leader or risk the disappearance of the royalist party.

	CAMBODIA: Losing parties seek to overturn election result (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Both Funcinpec and the SRP have challenged the CPP estimate of the final outcome, but a non-governmental election monitoring organisation that is often highly critical of the CPP government gave an almost identical evaluation of 72, 26 and 25 seats, respectively, for the three parties.
		Funcinpec, although it has been a coalition government partner of the CPP for the past five years, chose to run as an opposition party and an increasingly strident critic of the government.
		This did not prevent the SRP and Funcinpec from denouncing the result and claiming that the unregistered 6.05% were their supporters (both parties claimed all of them), who had been prevented from registering by alleged CPP tricks.

		The election is essentially a tight three-way race between the ruling CPP of Hun Sen, Prince Ranariddh's FUNCINPEC party and the Sam Rainsy Party of the former finance minister by the same name.
