Displaced Myanmar civilians reject ‘unfair’ junta-run election


Yangon (Myanmar) (AFP) – Displaced civilians living in makeshift jungle shelters in Myanmar’s Sagaing region denounce the upcoming election as an “unfair vote”, saying they cannot support it while their “lives are hanging between life and death”. Myanmar’s junta is set to preside over a month-long vote starting December 28, with heavily restricted polls as a return to democracy five years after it ousted the last elected government, triggering a civil war.
