PHNOM PENH (The Phnom Penh Post/Asia News Network): The ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) has recently defined a flexible foreign policy plan, projected to span the next five years. This strategic approach is a reflection of their adaptation to the dynamic geopolitical landscape, shaped by competitive influences of the world’s major powers.

Earlier this year, the policy was formulated and finally shared with the public on July 25. This release followed the unofficial results from the July 23 general election. The results indicated a sweeping win for the CPP, with the party securing 120 out of the 125 National Assembly seats, suggesting a strong mandate for their leadership in the coming term.
