Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The State Counsellor of Myanmar was the title of the de facto head of government of Myanmar, equivalent to a prime minister. The post was created in 2016 to allow for a greater role for Suu Kyi within the Government of Myanmar. Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy won a landslide victory in the 2015 Myanmar general election; however, she is constitutionally barred from becoming President of Myanmar as her late husband was British and her two children also hold British nationality.
  2. ^ Chief Adviser is an official post in Bangladesh for the head of government during the absence of a Bangladesh and Parliament, typically used for interim or caretaker governments.
