Myanmar’s junta chief Min Aung Hlaing was nominated on Monday for a parliamentary vote to select the country’s next president, in a move that could formalise his rule under a civilian framework.
“I nominate Senior General Min Aung Hlaing as vice-president,” MP Kyaw Kyaw Htay said during a lower house session, according to state-run media. Under the process, three vice-presidents will be chosen, one of whom will go on to become president.
