What kind of bullshit law is this?

Myanmar Military did a PAP on Aung San Syu Chee? See Beh Chow Kuan this Buddha country! :D

(CNN)As more votes are counted in Myanmar's freest election in decades, the margin of victory gets wider and wider for Aung San Suu Kyi's National League of Democracy.

By Wednesday, the party had won 163 of the 182 seats declared so far in the country's parliament, the Pyidaungsu Hluttaw.

Suu Kyi herself won a seat from in the Kawhmu constituency in Yangon, said the Union Election Commission.

And yet, the Nobel Peace laureate -- the leader of Myanmar's long-fought democracy movement -- can't become president.

A change in Myanmar's constitution, drafted by the military, prevents anyone with foreign family members from becoming the nation's leader.

Suu Kyi's late husband was British. Her children hold British passports.
