PHNOM PENH, Cambodia -- Prince Norodom Ranariddh, a key leader in post-civil war Cambodia, has returned from two years of retirement to lead the party bearing his name ahead of upcoming elections, a spokesman said Sunday.
Ranariddh, 68, was elected new president of the Norodom Ranariddh Party at a party congress Saturday in the capital, Phnom Penh, party spokesman Pen Sangha said.
"The party members felt that only the prince has enough ability to lead the party," Pen Sangha said.
Cambodia is to hold local elections in 2012 and general elections in 2013.
