Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi has sharpened her criticism of her country\'s incomplete transition to democracy, saying the next general election in 2015 cannot be fair unless the army-imposed constitution is amended, AP reported. Speaking to reporters Friday at a ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the founding of her National League for Democracy party, Suu Kyi said an unfair election would have consequences, but did not elaborate. Her party considers the current constitution undemocratic because of clauses giving the military a substantial percentage of parliamentary seats and disqualifying Suu Kyi from running for president. \"If the constitution is not amended, the 2015 election cannot be free or fair. It might be free but it cannot be fair,\" Suu Kyi said. \"An election held with an unfair constitution can never be fair. The unfair election will have consequences.\"
