Dear Sir,
The next round in SL will be more effective than that what occurred in May 2022 if you and your team (Cabinet Ministers, Advisors, Top Public Servants) carry on like what you have been in the past 6 months.
Though late, Dear Sir, please instruct your Cabinet Ministers, State Ministers and top Public Servants to jointly review the laws, Planning, procedures and strategies that apply to all sectors of life and the economy, in consultation with peak public and private sector bodies and conduct a NATIONAL RESILIENCE SUMMIT to agree on a Way Forward.
Sleeping on your job and then using military power to suppress dissent will be disastrous.
