Quick Summary

The FUNCINPEC Party, or the United Front for an Independent, Neutral, Peaceful, and Cooperative Cambodia, is a Cambodian political party. It was founded by royalist supporters of former King Norodom Sihanouk.1

Historically, FUNCINPEC was a significant political force, participating in governing coalitions with the Cambodian People's Party (CPP) from 1993 to 2006. However, the party subsequently lost much of its influence on the national political scene.1
