The General Administration Department (Template:Lang-my, abbreviated GAD) is an civil service body that staffs all regional and state-level governments in Myanmar and provides administration for the country's myriad districts and townships.[1]
It also plays a central role in administering the country's administrative capital of Naypyidaw, as the Constitution of Myanmar stipulates that the head of GAD is the secretary of the Naypyidaw Council, and that the GAD offices are to be co-located with the Naypyidaw Council offices.[1]
