Paragraph 29
 

Furthermore, in a new democracy in which the mobilisation of the voters is not easy and the participation in elections is generally comparatively low, it is not recommendable to preview two rounds of elections. Those who have voted for a party in the first round that was not selected for the second round might stay away from the second round. Therefore the final result might be based on a very low turn-out of voters.
