General elections were held in Cambodia on 1 May 1981 and marked the establishment of the new, Vietnamese-backed, state of the People's Republic of Kampuchea. The Kampuchean People's Revolutionary Party was the only party to contest the election, won all 117 seats. Voter turnout was reported to be 90%. Pen Sovan, the General Secretary of the KPRP, became Prime Minister on 27 June 1981 but was removed from office on 5 December and replaced by Chan Sy. In December 1978, the Vietnamese, along with the help of the Pol Pot opposition movement, the Kampuchean National United Front for National Salvation, invaded Kampuchea; the Vietnamese known as the "elder brothers", took over Phnom Penh on 7 January 1979. 10 January 1979 marked the establishment of the People’s Republic of Kampuchea government. By the beginning of 1980, the Vietnamese had forced the defeated Democratic Kampuchean Army into their mountain fortifications. In 1980, the Vietnamese seemed like the lesser evil; the greater fear lied in the potential revival of a coalition between the Democratic Kampuchea with the Chinese and Western backing.

Furthermore, Cambodians perceived the Vietnamese as their liberators, many Khmer now saw them as opportunists who wished to subjugate the country. This was the general drive for many Vietnamese-opposing groups such as the KPNLF. Prior to the political return of Prince Sihanouk, Cambodia’s King who ruled from 1941 to 1955 and had been living in exile in Beijing, in January 1981, the leader of the KPNLF Son Sann, met with the Prime Minister of Democratic Kampuchea, Khieu Samphan. Prince Sihanouk returned to the political life on 8 February 1981, with the intention of heading “a government and a United Front against Vietnamese colonialism in Kampuchea.” In March 1981, Sihanouk’s resistance movement called FUNCINPEC joined with the small resistance army known as the Armée Nationale Sihanoukiste, the Khmer Rouge, Son Sann's KPNLF to discuss anti-Vietnamese and PAVN prospects. This only prompted the Vietnamese to act quickly; the Vietnamese’ effort to start a Khmer state and nation began in Spring 1981.

On 10 March 1981, Radio Phnom Penh announced a draft constitution, which caused villagers to elect their local committees in a narrow time frame due to the pressure of growing anti-Vietnamese organizations. The 1981 elections are known for its close resemblance to the Vietnamese model, they were applied in 20 MMCs. The law stated; the electoral laws were the same except for Article 4 in the new Cambodian constitution. This one explained that “Citizens of the PRK have the obligation to take part in the general elections to elect members of the National Assembly who, loyal to the fatherland, agree to follow the political line of the KNUFNS and work tirelessly in the service of the people.” A law nowhere to be found in the initial constitution. The district magnitude ranged from 2 to 13 seats with an average size of 5.9. There were open lists and multiple votes, with the voting process consisting of voters choosing their candidates by crossing off the names of those they did not wish to vote for.

Candidates would be nominated jointly by the Front Central Committee, the Central mass organizations, the Front Committees and mass organizations at the lower levels. The deputies were directly elected for five-year terms, the Assembly would meet around twice a year. 148 candidates, who were all approved by the electoral committee of the National United Front for the Salvation of Kampuchea, contested 117 seats in the National Assembly. No constituency had less than 2 seats to fill in the National Assembly; the elections occurred in a hasty manner due to the growth of anti-Vietnamese forces through Khmer resistance meetings and the Vietnamese’ fear of potential coalescence between them. Other issues with this election were found in the Constitution. An original draft had been printed and distributed 10,000 times in 1980, yet the 1981 Constitution more emphasized Indo-Chinese solidarity and bore the stamp of the 1980 Vietnamese Constitution. There were several other minor problems with the system, such as the regime’s violation of its own decree of 18 March 1981.

Rather than announcing candidates 15 days prior to the election, as was appropriate, the PRK only announced them 10 days in advance. Another issue was spotted in the official results of 27 June 1981, when it was revealed that Sim Ka, who at the time was the Chairman of the Committee to Control State Affairs, had no seat in the Assembly and therefore no constituency; the official results were broadcast on 1 May 1981 by Radio Phnom Penh, remaining in conformity with the Communist practice. They announced the proclamation of the People’s Republic of Kampuchea which lead to Kampuchean People’s Revolutionary Party control of power. Considering its sole opponent was the isolated group of Khmer Rouge, the PRK claimed the majority of support; the results only asserted President Heng Samrin and Vice President Pen Sovan’s leaderships as they secured 99.75% and 99.63% of the Phnom Penh constituency votes. On 29 May 1981, the Kampuchean People’s Revolutionary Party held a four-day congress in Phnom Peng.

Lê Duẩn, the first secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, along with ten other foreign representatives attended the meeting. The Fourth Party Congress announced Pen Sovan as General secretary of the elected politburo and Central Committee of the Revolutionary Party of the People of Kampuchea. However, on 4 December 1981, the Vietnamese replaced Pen Sovan with Heng Samrin as Secretary General, because of Sovan's pro-Moscow sentiments. A list of foreign communist parties that supported the newly estab
