Annotation: Despite the dramatic deterioration of the COVID-19 situation, General parliamentary elections were held in Myanmar on November 8, 2020. The peculiarity of these elections is not only that they are "pandemic". This is the second election in which the national League for democracy (NLD) won a landslide victory. The party's electoral support even expanded compared to the previous 2015 elections. They were also held when the former opposition NLD party was in power for the first time. The NLD's victory was expected and predictable. The election results can be seen as a personal victory for Aung San Suu Kyi and the desire of the people to see her as the leader of the nation.

Keywords: Myanmar, general parliamentary elections, the National League for Democracy (NLD), Aung San Suu Kyi
