The commune elections are set to take place on June 4 with the participation 12 political parties in 1,646 communal and ward councils across the country.

On April 13, the Cambodian National Election Committee (NEC) reported that hackers tried to break and change data of the online list of registered voters for the June elections.

However, NEC said the act did not affect the official voter list as the data was kept not only on the website of NEC but also on other secured server systems.

The lists were also printed and sent to the election committees in localities to prepare for the upcoming elections.

The commune elections in Cambodia are held every five years.
