[size=18pt][s]It is the same stupid , the schools can not be fix, this way. Appointing people is not the correct thing. You get rid of the local government. you are only encouraging corruption.

The correct thing is to hand over the local government to the police/military. This people he appointed can not effort the law. He lack exposure

I feel the time is too short for his excellency to appoint these wonderful people now knowing well that the election is just by the corner; this year. The truth is that some of them will work but some will be hasty to enrich themselves before their time lapse... Just my thought though.
