The president of Kiribati (Gilbertese: Beretitenti[2]) is the head of state and head of government of Kiribati.[3][4]
Following a general election, by which citizens elect the members of the House of Assembly, members select from their midst "not less than 3 nor more than 4 candidates" for the presidency. No other person may stand as candidate. The citizens of Kiribati then elect the president from among the proposed candidates with first-past-the-post voting.[5]
