The governor is the chief administrator of a first-level administrative region, such as a metropolis, district, prefecture, or county, wielding considerable power. They can make any decisions they deem necessary in situations where it is not possible to convene a timely meeting; they hold veto power over the budget and ordinances enacted by local assemblies; they possess the authority to transfer, promote, and discipline government department employees at their discretion; they even have the right to establish and adjust local taxes and can declare a state of emergency in certain situations.
However, the governor's power is also limited by the constitution and laws. For example, some decisions are subject to scrutiny by local assemblies, and major issues still require parliamentary approval.
Of course, the governor also has the power to dissolve local assemblies under specific circumstances, call for local elections, and initiate referendums for recall votes.
