There is in fact a democratic or at least electoral association with president, even if sometimes they end up being a president-for-life! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted June 8, 2022 at 09:33 PM Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 at 09:33 PM There's no implication of democracy in "President." Think: President Mubarak President Pinochet President Amin President Marcos President Suharto The problem in China is that leaders hold multiple posts, so one title might be appropriate when meeting a foreign dignitary, another when addressing a Party congress. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny同志 Posted June 9, 2022 at 01:02 AM Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 at 01:02 AM Thanks for your further feedback, folks. It seems I shouldn't object to the use of 'president' even when the person is question is not democratically elected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
