INTRODUCTION
The holding of the second General Elections in 1998 which were organized by the Cambodian people themselves were both fully in line with the spirit of 1993 Constitution of the Kingdom of Cambodia and an expression of our continued implementation of democratic, liberal and multi-party system so as to put into full play the sense of mastership over the country's destiny as well as enhancing the Cambodian nation's prestige in the international arena. Starting from the above historical event that the international community viewed it as a miracle of the Mekong River, the Royal Government of Cambodia, with Samdech Prime Minister Hun Sen at the helm, came into being and laid down a triangular strategy aimed at boosting a sustainable national development.
Strong with its Win-Win Policy initiated by Samdech Prime Minister Hun Sen, the Royal Government of Cambodia had put a total end to the Khmer Rouge military and political organization, thereby bringing a full peace to the whole country by ending a more than two-decade of internal rift and civil warfare. In turn, the Cambodian people have had rights to freely travel nationwide with joy and hope.
The Kingdom of Cambodia upgraded the relations with the United Nations, became the tenth member of ASEAN, and normalized its relations with various international financial institutions and international organizations. Efforts are being made in order to join in the nearest future the World Trade Organization so as to fully integrate Cambodia into the regional and world community.
The Government also paid its special attention to restore and boost the socio-economic development through public administrative reform, military reform, demobilization of armed forces, economic and public finance reform, legal and judicial reform, land policy implementation, environment protection, sustainable natural resource management, all of which are aimed at alleviating the people's poverty.
As far as the social reform is concerned, the Government curtailed the military and security expenditures year by year through the demobilization of militiamen and armed forces in order to re-allocate it to the four priority sectors, namely health, education, rural development and agriculture.
The Government had designed the Second Socio-Economic Development Plan (SEDPII) for a period of five years (2001-2005), the National Economic Growth and Poverty Reduction Strategies (2003-2005), the Yearly Public Investment Plan to back up the second five-year plan and a related plan of action for each specific sector within the framework of good governance.
The strengthening of democratic practices and the rule of law through the successful holding of the Communal Council Elections on 03 February 2002 constitutes an undeviating and firm commitment of the Royal Government in carrying out the decentralization policy at the local level.
In the same vein, the Government has been doing its part to provide support to the preparatory process of the upcoming third General Elections scheduled to be held on 27 July 2003.
The successive successes obtained by the Government and the entire people of Cambodia indeed have broadly won the sympathy and confidence both inside and outside the country and this was reflected in the positive result of the Consultative Group Meetings. Last but not least, Cambodia recently hosted the first Greater Mekong Sub-region Summit, the eighth ASEAN Summit, the ASEAN + 3 Summit, the ASEAN + 1 Summit as well as the third World Buddhism Conference.
In short, all these significant achievements stemmed from the efforts striven by the Coalition Government between the Cambodian People's Party and the Funcinpec Party coupled with the full backstopping rendered respectively on the part of the members of National Assembly and Senate under the Royal leadership of His Majesty Preah Bat Norodom Sihanouk, the King of Cambodia and Her Majesty the Queen as well as the support from the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces, Military Police, National Police, Civil Servants, Local Authorities of all levels, Private Sector, Workers, Farmers, Youth, Students, Intellectuals, Benefactors, Civil Society, Monks and Buddhist believers, other religions and the Cambodian people as a whole along with the precious and indispensable assistance rendered on the part of the international community.
