The Central Election Commission said that turnout was almost 90 % .
It was the first poll to be held under President Kurbanguly Berdymukhamedov , who has promised to end the Central Asian nation 's international isolation .
The authorities say the vote is an important democratic step , but critics question the validity of the process .
Almost all of the 288 candidates running for 125 seats in the parliament came either from Turkmenistan 's sole political party , the Democratic Party , or state-affiliated organisations .
All candidates were funded by the state as alternative funding was banned .
Ethnic minorities , such as the sizeable Uzbek community , were not permitted to nominate their own candidates .
International observers
There was no shortage of voters in the parliamentary elections in Turkmenistan , the former Soviet republic which borders the Caspian Sea .
According to the country 's Central Election Commission the turnout was extremely high .
Almost all of the 2.5 million people eligible cast their votes , reports said .
State media proudly reported that Turkmen citizens living abroad were able to vote for the first time at Turkmen embassies and consulates .
Officials are keen to demonstrate that these elections are part of Turkmenistan 's process of democratisation .
International observers from the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe were invited to monitor the poll .
They are not expected to give any formal assessment of the election proceedings .
Previously , Turkmenistan had a People 's Council whose 2,507 members had to be approved by the country 's late ruler , Saparmurat Niyazov , who died in 2006 after 21 years in power .
The new leader , Mr Berdymukhamedov , a former dentist , has introduced a number of measures to modernise the gas-rich nation , after years of isolation under his predecessor .
Abolishing the People 's Council and reinstating the country 's parliament was one of them .
However the country remains largely closed to the outside world . |

Almost all of the 288 candidates running for 125 seats in the parliament came either from Turkmenistan 's sole political party , the Democratic Party , or state-affiliated organisations .
All candidates were funded by the state as alternative funding was banned .
Ethnic minorities , such as the sizeable Uzbek community , were not permitted to nominate their own candidates .
International observers
There was no shortage of voters in the parliamentary elections in Turkmenistan , the former Soviet republic which borders the Caspian Sea .
According to the country 's Central Election Commission the turnout was extremely high .
Almost all of the 2.5 million people eligible cast their votes , reports said .
State media proudly reported that Turkmen citizens living abroad were able to vote for the first time at Turkmen embassies and consulates .
Officials are keen to demonstrate that these elections are part of Turkmenistan 's process of democratisation .
International observers from the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe were invited to monitor the poll .
They are not expected to give any formal assessment of the election proceedings .
Previously , Turkmenistan had a People 's Council whose 2,507 members had to be approved by the country 's late ruler , Saparmurat Niyazov , who died in 2006 after 21 years in power .
The new leader , Mr Berdymukhamedov , a former dentist , has introduced a number of measures to modernise the gas-rich nation , after years of isolation under his predecessor .
Abolishing the People 's Council and reinstating the country 's parliament was one of them .
However the country remains largely closed to the outside world . |

The authorities say the vote is an important democratic step , but critics question the validity of the process .

Waitrose <m> in Wellington </m> catches fire
22 Jul 2013
A Waitrose supermarket in a Somerset town caught fire yesterday ( July 21st ) , causing substantial damage to the building ’ s roof .
The fire service was called at approximately 06 : 00 BST to the store , which is on Wellington ’ s high street .
Upon arrival they found that the roof fire was quite significant .
Fire crews from Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue attended the scene and then called a further four appliances to help , a report from ITV revealed .
They contained the fire to one corner of the roof but could not be extinguished before a part of the entrance building collapsed .
However , the main area of the one - storey supermarket was left largely intact with only smoke damage .
By about 09 : 30 BST the fire was largely out , with crews checking for hotspots .
The fire service ’ s Matt Goodman explained that the fire began on the outside of the building .
"It then quickly spread to the roof so there is a significant amount of damage to the roof , but thankfully due to the early actions of the Wellington crew we could get a large weight of response to the scene , ” he said .
"We've been able to prevent it spreading to other areas of the building , so the main store on the inside has got a reasonably small amount of smoke damage . "
A spokesperson from Waitrose explained that no one was hurt in the incident and was grateful to the emergency services for their quick response and effective help .
Investigations into what caused the fire are ongoing .
In a bid to remove potential fire hazards , commercial buildings and non - domestic premises in England and Wales are already forced to undertake a 'suitable and sufficient' fire risk assessment carried out under the Regulatory Reform ( Fire Safety ) Order 2005 .
While the overwhelming majority of premises do this , if the assessment is thought to have been carried out to an insufficient extent , the Responsible Person can face an unlimited fine or up to two years in prison . |
