PHNOM PENH: Cambodian King Norodom Sihamoni has requested the winning candidates from all provinces to convene for their first meeting as members of parliament at the National Assembly on August 21.

The king sent an official letter of invitation to all candidates who won seats in the 7th National Assembly election on July 23. Included in the roster are 120 members of the reigning Cambodian People’s Party and five from the royalist FUNCINPEC party.
