A referendum on government policy was held in Cambodia on 5 June 1960. Voters were offered four choices of policies to approve; those of Norodom Sihanouk, Son Ngoc Thanh or the communists, with a fourth choice of being "indifferent".[1] Sihanouk's policies received all but 359 of the two million ballots cast.
