A "Premier" is the head of government in a parliamentary system, often leading the executive branch. This title is commonly used in countries like Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. The Premier is responsible for making policy decisions, overseeing government operations, and representing the government to the public and other political entities. In some regions, such as China, the term "Premier" refers to the head of the State Council, which is the highest executive body. The Premier in this context manages the country's economic and administrative functions, working closely with other government officials to implement laws and policies.
