PHNOM PENH—A Japanese delegation investigating election reform will meet with the opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party Wednesday to report on earlier visits to Cambodia.

The opposition has demanded election reform, including a new National Election Committee, as part of a political deal, which ended their boycott of government in July.

The delegation will meet with Rescue Party Vice President Kem Sokha, as well as lawmakers from the opposition and ruling Cambodian Peoples Party at the National Assembly.
