Outlook for 2011-12: Election watch

Presidential and legislative elections were held in October 2010. Although peaceful, they were far from perfect, with a low turnout and an opaque vote-counting process. The government has announced that it will push ahead with a formal review of the constitution in the next few years, which is likely to update the constitution and make it more suitable for a multiparty environment. The next elections are not due until 2015.
