Followed while covering Myanmar’s first election since military overthrow | ABC NEWS
Men on bikes followed ABC NEWS Asia editor Karishma Vyas constantly while covering elections in Myanmar.
Polls have closed on the first phase of voting in the country’s first election since the military overthrew the democratically elected government in 2021.
The election has been widely dismissed as a sham by governments and human rights activists.
The final results are set to be announced in February after two more rounds of voting.
