  • Countdown to the Myanmar Elections Prepared for the Conflict Prevention and Peace Forum by Richard Horsey 1 25 August 2010
    Countdown to the Myanmar Elections Prepared for the Conflict Prevention and Peace Forum by Richard Horsey 1 25 August 2010 I. The election timetable On 13 August, the Myanmar Election Commission finally announced the timetable for the country’s first elections in two decades; two days earlier, it had designated the constituencies. 2 The key dates are as follows: 11 August Constituencies designated by Election Commission 16 – 30 August Registration period for candidates (party and independent) 3 September Deadline for candidates to withdraw 6 – 10 September Applications scrutinized by Election Commission 7 November Election Day The announcement gave parties little more than two weeks’ notice of the candidate registration deadline – although most parties had already been considering for some time the question of which constituencies they would contest, and identifying possible candidates. The limited time remaining, and the considerable costs associated with contesting a seat (a non-refundable US$500 fee per candidate), mean that a number of parties have to scale-back their ambitions. With 498 seats up for grabs at the national level, and a further 665 in regional legislatures, only highly-organized and well-funded parties can hope to contest a majority of seats. Although parties have already started their canvassing activities, the campaign period proper – when confirmed candidates can formally seek support from the electorate in their constituency – will last only two months. By way of comparison, the timetable for the 1990 elections was announced more than six months in advance, on 7 November 1989. 3 Then too, however, little 1 Richard Horsey is an independent political analyst and a former ILO liaison officer in Myanmar; he is fluent in the Burmese language.
