A total of 19 state and union seats across Myanmar will go to the polls on Saturday, voting in replacements for MPs appointed to the ministry or in seats that did not vote in the 2015 elections. Will there be any surprises on the weekend, and what will the result mean for Myanmar's young NLD government? Frontier chief-of-staff Oliver Slow and senior political reporter Mratt Kyaw Thu speak with Soe Myint Aung, an analyst at the Tagaung Institute of Political Studies, in the first of Frontier's regular podcast series.
