De facto Myanmar leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi was appointed to a second term as the country’s State Counselor by a self-declared Parliament formed by elected lawmakers of her National League for Democracy, in an act aimed at defying military rule and asserting their electoral legitimacy.
The military staged a coup last week and arrested the democratically elected leaders of the NLD government, President U Win Myint and State Counselor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. The takeover came a few hours before the convening of what was to be the first session of the new Parliament since November’s general election, in which the NLD saw a landslide victory.
