Myanmar Junta Promises Voting in 267 Townships

Myanmar junta’s election body says voting will be held in 267 townships, assuming security can be guaranteed, in December or January.

However, it may vary depending on the security situation at the time the election dates are announced, it said.

The civilian National Unity Government said around 144 out of the country’s 330 townships are under the control of anti-regime groups and 79 townships are experiencing ongoing conflict.
