Townships  Where  Elections  Were  Cancelled     The  2015  general  elections  were  held  on  8th  November  2015  across  

Myanmar.  However,  the  elections  were  cancelled  in  7  entire  townships  and  around  

600  village  tracts  nationwide,  namely  Kachin,  Kayin,  Mon,  Shan  states  and  Bago  

regions,  which  were  deemed  unsuitable  for  free  and  fair  elections  by  the  Union  

Election  Commission.  The  data  used  in  this  article  is  derived  from  the  UEC  

notifications.  The  data  used  in  this  article  is  derived  from  the  UEC  notifications.  This  

article  aims  to  highlight  vacant  seats  in  Pyithu  hluttaw  and  state/region  hluttaws  

unless  by-­‐elections  are  conducted  while  providing  the  number  of  townships  and  

village  tracts  with  no  election.

  Figure  1:  Townships  Where  Elections  Were  Cancelled  

   

 

 

 

 

  In  Shan  State,  elections  were  called  off  in  seven  entire  townships:  Hpansan,  

Hpan  Wain,  Mongmaw,  Napham  and  Mongla,  Monghsu  and  Kyethi.  In  addition,  some  

village  tracts  in  Muse,  Kongyan,  Mantong,  Mongkhet,  Mongyang,  Mongyawng,  

Mongtong,  Metmong  and  Tangyan  townships  did  not  hold  polling.    Mongmaw,  Hpan  

Wain,  Napham,  Hpansan  and  Metmong  are  in  “Wa”  Self-­‐Administered  Division.  

  In  Kachin  State,  some  village  tracts  in  Machanbaw,  Sumprabum,  

Kawnglanghpu,  Waingmaw,  Chibwe,  Hsawlaw,  Injangyang,  Mansi,  Tanai  and  

Shwegu  Townships  did  not  hold  elections.  In  Kachin  state  alone,  the  number  of  

village  tracts  where  the  elections  were  cancelled  amounted  up  to  211  in  total.  

  In  Kayin  State,  elections  were  called  off  in  some  village  tracts  in  Hpa-­‐an,  

Hlinebwe,  Phapun,  Thantaunggyi,  Myawady,  Kawkareik  and  Kyainseikkyi  

Townships.  Similarly,  there  was  no  polling  in  Bawnaw  Khee  village  tract  in  Bilin  

Township,  Mon  State.      

  In  Bago  Region,  elections  were  not  held  in  12  village-­‐tracts  in  Kyaukkyi  

Township  and  29  wards  and  village-­‐tracts  in  Shwekyin  Township.    

    The cancellations particularly affected Shan State, which in turn

resulted in seven vacant seats in Pyithu Hluttaw and 14 vacant seats in Shan State

Hluttaw. Despite the poll cancellations, the military representatives took the full-

designated seats both in Pyithu and state/region hluttaws. This indicates that, unless

by-elections are held, the military representation is higher than the 25 per cent

prescribed in the Constitution.
