The opposition National League for Democracy of Nobel Peace laureate Aung San Suu Kyi says it has won a landslide victory in Myanmar’s first free general election in a quarter of a century. An NLD spokesman said the party had won more than 80 percent of votes counted so far in densely-populated central regions of the country, also known as Burma. The acting chairman of Myanmar’s military-backed ruling party has conceded defeat and said he would accept the result of Sunday’s historic ballot.
