At the same time, since we cannot achieve miracles, we should all think about how this country can continue to prosper. Lest you forget, we have to catch up with time wasted. Through lack of vision these past few years, issues of paramount importance in sectors like education, health, housing and public transport have not been addressed. The political will to bring about changes has also been lacking, so much so that the national machinery itself had actually ground to a halt. Now, we have to take bold decisions, even though these may be difficult ones.
Reform often upsets old habits and mindsets.
Yet, humanity has achieved progress only when people have agreed to change for the better. We should go beyond personal interest and consider the common good. The country comes first. To ensure a better future for generations to come, we must, as of now, undertake important reforms in several sectors. We must at the same time explore new fields for development.
