Talk:State Counsellor of Myanmar

Councellor, Counselor, Counsellor or Councillor?
This article currently uses four different spellings of the new post. The situation is aggravated by the third-party news sources also using different spellings! Rather than attempt to spell-check it now (and probably get it wrong), I hope a more knowledgeable editor will be able, in due course, to ascertain what the Myanmar authorities themselves are actually calling this new position, and will make the appropriate alterations.Parkywiki (talk) 18:53, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Head of Government
@, the post of State Counselor is similar to that of a prime minister and it is clear that Aung San Suu Kyi is de facto head of government. However, state counselor bill does not mention that she is head of government, and according to article 16 of the constitution, president is head of state and government. IMO, it is very early to list her as current ASEAN leader, current head of government or leader of East Asia Summit. I think we should wait the point of view of mainstream media. Any opinion?

 * hmmm waiting. we look the asean summit in laos (april and september). who are head of government stand shots?? ASSK or Htin Kyaw. Akuindo (talk) 02:59, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
 * hmmm the constitution of myanmar. parliamentary, semi presidential or presidential system??? de jure presidential and de facto semi presidential. Akuindo (talk) 03:04, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
 * No, you're wrong, it's a parliamentary system (with executive presidency) because the president is elected by the legislature. Also, the Constitution of Myanmar states that the President is both head of state and head of government, as well the List of current heads of state and government. --B.Lameira (talk) 18:52, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
