government’s capacity to navigate
A sluggish economic performance would dent the CPP’s right to rule. Unlike the economic downturn during COVID-19, the government would not be able to blame external factors. With five years of preparation for an orderly transition, the government’s capacity to navigate the new trade environment would be sharply questioned if robust economic growth came to a halt. With claims of liberation and electoral legitimacy increasingly lacking, performance legitimacy based on capable governance and economic development is the new anchor for the CPP’s popularity. Hun Manet has to demonstrate that ‘the CPP deserves to run the state — not because it built it, but because it can run it better than other parties’. Faced with this legitimacy threat, the government can be expected to take administrative reforms with heightened urgency. สล็อต เว็บตรง
