∙ 12y agoNo, the people do not elect the president of the Republic of Suriname.
Specifically, elections are held every five years. Leaders are elected or appointed to carry out the local government functions on the resort and district levels. Resort government is the equivalent of city government and district of state. But the choice of who is to be Suriname's next president is made in the Suriname's 51-member Natonal Assembly, which is an equivalent of Congress in the United States of America.
