Description
Cambodia's prime ministers, His Royal Highness (HRH) Prince Norodom Ranariddh (left), leader of the National United Front for an Independent, Neutral, Peaceful and Cooperative Cambodia (FUNCINPEC) Party and Hun Sen, leader of the Cambodian People's Party (CPP) conducting business in the Cabinet Room of the Constitutional Assembly building in Phnom Penh on the morning of 10 August 1993. Above them is a map of Cambodia divided into provinces. The May 1993 elections, supervised by the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC), gave FUNCINPEC 45.47 percent of the national vote, entitling them to 58 seats in the Assembly, while the CPP polled 38.23 percent and 51 seats. The two parties subsequently decided to form a power sharing government.
