JAKARTA - Hun Manet was elected Cambodia's new prime minister to replace his father, Hun Sen, who has served for 38 years.
Hun Manet (45), a candidate from the ruling Cambodian People's Party (CPP), received 123 votes from lawmakers, state news agency AKP News reported as reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Tuesday, August 22.
Parliament held a prime ministerial election after Hun Sen announced his resignation days after his party, the Cambodian People's Party (CPP), won the election last July.
CPP, led by Hun Sen, seized the majority of seats in the general election that took place without any competitors after the main opposition party was barred from taking part in the election.
