Ms. San Suu Kyi was appointed as Myanmar's Foreign Minister.

In addition, Ms. San Suu Kyi also holds the positions of Minister of the President's Office, Minister of Education, and Minister of Electricity and Energy.

Chairwoman of Myanmar's ruling National League for Democracy (NLD) party, Aung San Suu Kyi, has been appointed Foreign Minister, as well as holding ministerial positions in three other ministries in the new government of President Htin Kyaw.

Accordingly, in addition to the position of Foreign Minister, Ms. San Suu Kyi also holds the positions of Minister of the President's Office, Minister of Education, and Minister of Electricity and Energy.

Although the National League for Democracy (NLD) party led by Aung San Suu Kyi won a resounding victory in Myanmar's parliamentary election on November 8, 2015, according to the Myanmar Constitution, because the deceased husband and two children of the leader of the National League for Democracy (NLD) party Aung San Suu Kyi are British citizens, she cannot become President.

Ms. San Suu Kyi's appointment to a number of important positions in the new Government's Cabinet is considered an important move, helping her continue to maintain influence over the reform process in Myanmar.

Earlier, also on March 30, at the National Assembly headquarters in the capital Nay Pyi Taw, Mr. Htin Kyaw of the ruling National League for Democracy (NLD) party was officially sworn in as President of Myanmar./.
