Election day has come and gone. Great Britain Embassy staff than other diplomatic missions in Burma, colleagues, fanned Rangoon and other major population centres here to see how things turn.

Sunday's events for the full image may take a few days to come. We have been working to try to get a sense of belonging, in the light of developments in key areas of the country, in particular ethnic, but Burma's size, because the remoter parts of the phones internal telecommunications problems and many of these regions as a result of their remoteness, it is some time before you can talk about confidence with certainty what happened to the nationwide.

But Rangoon, feedback to us on the first hand experience of the sources and was relatively consistent. The atmosphere was calm – just like a regular Sunday here. Low-key seems about the whole thing was.This was the first national elections in 20 years in the country around 50-60 million people. [1] [2] But has been nothing rejoicing scenes or other landmark elections saw a lot of optimism in recent memory-long queues at the dawn of the elector before, South Africa, in other words, under the auspices of the world, or after the elections in the fall of communism in Eastern Europe.

And that would be taken into account in the flat, I do not know the campaign that had gone before. What a little promotional activities should have been from the beginning of the elections undermined the eas laws which strictly limited to the activities of the opposition parties which decided the best known opposition party, for all but the NLD, impossible to run, and made the participation.

For these reasons, it is not in a hurry to get around the block in the queues, not votes on Sunday morning.I thought that I have found a sense of mechanically going to looking through the who trusts that the result was in advance with the motions of the people.

Query drives closed at 4 pm. Authorities had said that if the voters were still waiting to vote, drives stay open until everything was voted.On the basis of What we saw, would not be required to do so – almost all of which was going to vote appeared to shall be adopted in accordance with the lunchtime or soon after.

No reliable evidence of voter turnout – yet, our figures from different sources are listed in the varied from 35% to 75%, and in the absence of any previous official. [1] [2] the figures in the reliability is not, we can never really know.

Authorities were clearly eager to get people to vote – official cars were Patrolling the city, a number of areas, through the people to vote for the speakers, exhorting.

We have the session in some reports of irregularities in the vote.For more information about the impression should again emerge in the coming days, where we have the opportunity to the detailed discussions with the parties and candidates, But the day before the election. [1] [2], in particular developed sounds, which were within the Coordination Committee with a view, inter alia, the Government and military personnel, including their bosses was certainly ample anecdotal evidence of irregularities.Some conclude that has been implemented for the most part, the "appropriate measures" to ensure "right before the election result".

The results for Yourself, we have been told to wait for the first informal indications quite rapidly in other results more gradually as completed, the amount of the more remote areas.

My sense is that we should have a clear picture of the week, and quite possibly before the end of the year.

So what happens next?, attention to now focus on the results as they emerge, and next Saturday and Aung San Suu Kyi release possible.

I drove past the NLD HQ to my travel around Rangoon election day Had two great day. posters outside of Aung San Suu Kyi and the banner is to say, "only five days to go" – If you want to refer to his scheduled release date 13 day. Some voters, this may have been sparked in the mind of the nostalgia of elections in 20 years, then that produced, as well as its overall result NLD landslide scale one of the most astonishing are the modern history of the elections.

Sunday's election will not be able to produce anything such as seismic shock. is mathematically impossible to resist to win a majority of the national Parliament, but the next weekend events – in particular, whether the arrest of Aung San Suu Kyi released, and if so, whether he is shackled conditions – may well have a decisive effect on the events during the next 20 years, the military regime in Burma.
