Constitution Proposal (Section 4.1: House of Administration)

This is not part of the constitution proposal, thus, written in a different color.

Since the introduction of the Government cabinet system, there is always one Chieftain (Title: usually President, King, Emperor) and one Chief National Administration Minister (Title: usually Prime Minister, Chancellor, Secretary of State) To the best of this article’s knowledge, the cabinet system emerged in Asia, around 221BC and continue to be perfected, until the Qing Empire (Manchuria) that conquer China, Taiwan, Mongolia, Tibet, Xian Jiang and Eastern Russia in the late 17th century, to secure their power, abolished it and all Federal Executive Government authority and responsibility was given to the Office of the Emperor, which is another reason why since then Asia start deteriorating and even got surpass by Europe, by the 19th century.

This article does not know when the cabinet system emerged in the west. The US cabinet system emerged soon after the established of the Republic, with the establishment of US State Department, by President George Washington, originally just like Qing Empire, US had no cabinet and all authority and responsibility of executive government belong to the office of the President, finding this not practical, President George Washington, introduce the cabinet system to the US and established the US State Department, with the Secretary of State as the Chief National Administration Minister. European countries (and Japan and Thailand) that use constitution monarchy system, after the Age of Enlightenment, the National administration become independent from the Chieftain. Australia, most unusual, the Prime Minister, play both the role of the President (Chieftain) and Prime Minister (Chief national administration minister).

If becoming a Republic, it is better to let the Prime Minister be the Chieftain and have another national administration minister, call the Chancellor as Chief national administration minister, so the Prime Minister only need to focus on the big picture, much like an US Presidents can leave the day to day national administration to the Secretary of State and focus on the big picture.


Because Australia is currently a country where the Prime Minister hold the administration authority to the country, it is better to model after nations such as US, where the President hold the ultimate power to national administration, despite the Secretary of State is the highest-ranking national administration minister.
