	afrol News - Malawi elections may be postponed to June
		Misanet / The Chronicle, 22 March - Malawi's much awaited Parliamentary and Presidential elections may not be held on 18 May as stipulated by law because the Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) is contemplating shifting the dates to an undisclosed date in June, 'The Chronicle' has established.
		Information reaching 'The Chronicle' indicates that the Commission is under pressure to shift the polling day and one of the reasons given will be that it has a deficit of about US$ 14 million, which is equivalent to Malawian kwacha 1.4 billion to run the elections.
		The Malawi Electoral Commission proposed a budget of kwacha 25 billion from donors to run the elections but donors refused to meet the amount and made available only kwacha 14 billion after a trimming of the budget.
