da silva’s appointment
la designación/nombramiento de Da Silva


Explanation:
Me parece el encabezado de una noticia en el periódico. Luego las redactan de tal manera que se puedan imprimir o quepan en la columna que se le dedica. Podría decir: La designación de Da silva, se dijo que el Gobierno de la República Bolivariana de Venezuela ha acordado la proposición(el nombramiento).
