Winning Parties in Self-Administered Zones in the 2015 General Elections
Winning Parties in Self-Administered Zones in the 2015 General Elections Figure 1: Six Self-Administered Zones in Myanmar In Myanmar ethnic identities are represented by four different forms: ethnic states, self-administered areas, ethnic affairs ministers and constituencies won by ethnic parties. The 2008 Constitution stipulated 5 “Self-Administered Zones” for the Naga in the Sagaing Region, and Danu, Kokang, Palaung and Pao, as well as a larger “Self-Administered Division” for the Wa, in Shan State. The 2015 General Elections took place in Self-administered zones polling excerpt five townships in Wa Self- Administered Division: Mongmao, Pangwaun, Namphan, Pangsang and Mongla. In addition, some villages tracts in Hopang and Matman did not have elections either. Ta-Arng Palaung National Party and Pao National Organisation (PNO) won all the seats for Pyithu and State/Region Hluttaws in their respective self-administered zones. National League for Democracy (NLD) won all 3 seats for Pyithu Hluttaw in Naga self-administered zones and won 5 out of 6 seats for state/region hlutttaw. Union Solidarity and Development Party won all the seats in Kokang self-administered zones. In Danu self-administered zone, party preference was ambiguous since NLD and USDP shared seats for the state/region hluttaw. Although NLD is popular nationwide, ethnic parties, for example, PaO National Organization and Ta-Arng Palaung National Party, are also influential in self-administered zones. There is an internal ethnic division in the Wa case. As Myanmar is moving towards peace process, ethnic politics in election has become crucial and it is interesting to look at the winning parties in self-administered zones. -
