How to Maintain a More Stable Society for National Progress and Solidarity

Recently there are several instances of uprising in Middle East countries. For the past 40 years, we saw such similar sceneries, and learned lots of lesson from those. The model of these uprisings from Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan…etc was quite similar:

First, large protect movement by mob was invoked by opposition party against government. With more and more confrontation and discontent, frustrated mob initiated violent riot everywhere in order to threaten police and paralyze the entire society.

Second, government will try to restore social order by military curfew, freezing lots of activities, and distributing allotment in different community to control situation. In each community, people will also discriminate themselves into different sects by ethic or religion. Worse case is the withdrawal of elites and foreign investment.

Third, eventually the result, whether government was there or not, was more ruin, poverty, hunger, and violence than before. Most business activities were just halted because there was no law or order. Everybody, anti government or pro-government, were all losers.

“But, as someone who led a peaceful revolution, I hope that their pride is tempered by pragmatism - because a change of regime is only the first step in establishing a democracy backed by the rule of law. Indeed, as my country, Ukraine, is now demonstrating, after revolutionary euphoria fades and normality returns, democratic revolutions can be betrayed and reversed.” - Yuliya Tymoshenko, leader of Orange Revolution in Ukraine, in her recent essay “Revolution Betrayed”.

She clearly stated that revolution by such blind mob protest movement cannot guarantee the establishment of democratic government and social justice based on her experience in Ukraine several years after revolution.
