Manado, the capital of North Sulawesi province, has a leadership structure that begins with the mayor. In 1928, the position of assistant resident, who previously led the Manado government, was finally changed to mayor. The first mayor was Frederik Hendrik van de Wetering, of Dutch descent. Initially, a mayor could also serve as chairman of the city council, assisted by an assistant mayor elected by popular vote.
