Junta chief Min Aung Hlaing has amended the Union Election Commission Law, which allows government staff to chair all Myanmar’s election bodies ahead of voting due in December or January.

Many government departments are led by ex-military officers who can dominate the election sub-commissions down to the village level.

We all knew this election was going to be a farce and now it's guaranteed.
