Since early morning of 26.04.2008, thousands of expatriate Burmese in Singapore have been waiting in front of Burmese embassy in Singapore,  holding their red Burmese passports, to get a chance to cast their vote (overwhelmingly NO according to exit polls) on Burmese military junta’s pro-military constitution for Burma.

But for some very vague reasons the embassy turned away a huge number of eager Burmese expatriate voters.

Many a turned away voters are asking why they are not allowed to vote despite being Burmese citizens of majority age holding valid Burmese passports and paying tax regularly to Burmese embassy.
