Freedom of Press Around the World

(2010) CPPF - Outcome of the Myanmar Elections
The elections in Myanmar resulted in a massive victory for the ruling USDP party, which won over 75% of seats in national and state legislatures. However, the process was marred by irregularities, including the suspension of vote counts when the USDP was losing and an influx of late "advance votes" that reversed results. Several parties have contested the results without much expectation of success. In ethnic minority states, the USDP does not have a majority on its own but forms a majority bloc with the military.
Is capital punishment appropriate in india.
Capital punishment, or the death penalty, remains a controversial issue in India. While India retains capital punishment for serious crimes like murder, it is only used in the "rarest of rare" cases as determined by the Supreme Court. Arguments for retaining capital punishment include that it acts as a deterrent against serious crimes and is necessary to eliminate dangerous criminals. However, others argue that capital punishment should be abolished as it is a form of judicial murder if an innocent person is executed, and that life imprisonment allowing criminals to reform themselves and support victim families is a better alternative. There are ongoing debates around ensuring fair trials and protecting human rights for those sentenced to death. The appropriate use and potential abolition of capital punishment continues to be discussed in India
232 jornalistas detidos em todo o mundo
The Committee to Protect Journalists found that the number of journalists imprisoned worldwide reached a record high of 232 in 2012, surpassing the previous record of 185 in 1996. Turkey, Iran, and China were the three worst jailers, largely imprisoning journalists on vague anti-state charges related to terrorism or dissent. Overall, governments are increasingly using anti-state laws to silence critical voices in the media.

MYANMAR: ANNUAL REPORT COUNTRY ENTRY 2016

Authorities failed to address rising religious intolerance and incitement to discrimination and violence against
Muslims, allowing hardline Buddhist nationalist groups to grow in power and influence ahead of the November
general elections. The situation of the persecuted Rohingya deteriorated still further. The government
intensified a clampdown on freedoms of expression, association and peaceful assembly. Reports of abuses of
international human rights and humanitarian law in areas of internal armed conflict persisted. Security forces
suspected of human rights violations continued to enjoy near-total impunity.

democracy
Democracy is derived from Greek words meaning "people" and "power", referring to a government where power lies with the people. Key features of a democracy include decisions being made by elected representatives, free and fair elections where incumbents could lose, and all adult citizens having equal say.

Jasmine Foundation Briefing: Tunisian new elections law
Tunisia’s National Constituent Assembly passed, on 1st May, a new Electoral Law, marking a key step towards completing its democratic transition. The new Fundamental Law on Elections and Referenda, adopted by 132 deputies with 11 against and 9 abstentions, sets out the process for organising elections and referenda, from registration of voters to declaration of results and contestation mechanisms.
It comes as a result of two months of discussions within the Assembly and intense debate in the Consensus Committee (set up last June as a forum for political parties to debate the most contentious points within the Constitution and the democratic transition). The law is based on draft proposals by a group of civil society organisations, including Chahed Observatory, ATIDE, Youth without Borders, the Foundation for the Future and the Centre for Citizenship.

Burundi election explainer
- 2. What you need to know … about the Burundi elections on Monday 29 July 2015.
- 3. This is NOT the Presidential election in which President Pierre Nkurunziza intends to run for a third term. That takes place on July 15, 2015. This is a parliamentary election in which more than 2,200 candidates, representing 16 parties, coalitions or independent candidates are in the race for a seat. Firstly …
- 4. What are the rules? Under the constitution, based on peace deals that paved the way for the end of a 13-year civil war in 2006, there are strict ethnic quotas in parliament.
- 5. What are the rules? Parliament must be made up of 60% from the majority Hutu people, who make up some 85 percent of the population, with the remaining 40 percent of elected seats reserved for the minority Tutsi. At least 30 percent of seats must also be held by women.
- 6. What are the rules? Three extra seats on top of the 100 voted for are reserved for the Twa ethnic group, which make up some one percent of the population. Extra seats may by handed to female MPs or ethnic groups if the thresholds required are not met in direct elections.
- 7. What are the rules? Some 4.8 million registered voters out of a population of 10 million are due to cast ballots for 100 lawmakers.
- 8. What are the rules? Lawmakers are elected for five years but can take up seats only if their parties receive more than two percent of the national vote.
- 9. CNDD-FDD The National Council for the Defence of Democracy - Forces for the Defence of Democracy is the ruling party of President Nkurunziza. It is an ex-rebel Hutu group, whose youth wing is the Imbonerakure, a fearsome group accused of being a militia force by the UN.
- 10. UPRONA The Union for National Progress, the main Tutsi party, and close to the CNDD-FDD.
- 11. FNL The National Liberation Forces, another Hutu former rebel group, once a CNDD-FDD rival during the civil war, but now allies.
- 12. Independents of Hope Candidates led by Nkurunziza's two main opponents - Agathon Rwasa, formerly FNL leader, and Charles Nditije, formerly UPRONA head, who were ousted from their parties but remain powerful challengers to the president.
- 13. MSD Movement for Solidarity and Development, led by exiled ex-journalist Alexis Sinduhije.
- 14. ADC-Ikibiri The Democratic Alliance for Change is a coalition of a dozen opposition parties, dominated by the mainly Hutu party FRODEBU.
- 15. And finally …. The opposition has threatened to boycott elections, as it did in 2010, if it believes polls are not free and fair, conditions it says so far have not been met.
