Election Farce
Four years after seizing power in a coup, Myanmar’s military rulers continue their desperate yet failing bid to tighten their grip, this time by extending emergency rule under the pretext of preparing for elections.
Myanmar authorities have arrested six suspects for illegal possession of rockets in southern Myanmar’s Bago region, official media reported on Sunday.
Ten 107-mm rockets and 10 detonators were seized near Kamar Natkha Village in Bago township on Friday, Xinhua news agency reported, citing official daily The Mirror.
