About a year ago we had a ridiculous amount of contestants for the top seat in government. There were twenty two presidential candidates representing the same number of political parties. The amount of acronymns flying around the media alone made me disheartened. Why you ask? Because this was typical for our beloved country. Everyone wants to become president, no one wants to do the hard work. Of the numerous parties available at the time, what distinguished between the parties programs and ambitions. Basically nothing. In the end, the personal cults around the most popular politicians prevailed. Now, a full year later, the National Election Commision, in accordance with the constitution, is requesting annual reports and commencing inspection of parties headquarters.
All of a sudden, where did all the parties go. Have they disappeared into thin air? It looks that way, so come the next presidential election in five years time, beware of the false prophets and do not forget to ask about their ideology.
