"根据仰光地区的计票结果，在靠近仰光机场的选区，竟然是由全国民主联盟推出的候选人获胜，当地人也大感意外，原因是该区居住的都是军队的中高级军官，许多军人世代都居住于此，执政的联邦团结发展党 [Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP)] 候选人竟然输了，这是前所未有的现象。

(i) 受宪法所限? The BBC report does not explain.
(ii) A portion of the BBC report comes from
"The armed forces continue to wield considerable power in Myanmar's political institutions, under a constitution drafted before the end of nearly 50 years of [military] rule.
"One of the biggest sources of tension between Suu Kyi and the military is a clause in the constitution barring her from the presidency because her children are foreign nationals. Few doubt the military inserted the clause to rule her out. * * * She has made it clear she will run the country regardless of who the NLD elects as president and described the constitution as 'very silly.'
