Yes Walu, this might be the thinking of the executive, but if we get
enough critical mass rejecting the bill, or proposing amendments, we
can still petition the government to consider the stance. We can
actually go to court and justify that the laws are unconstitutional
and they were hurriedly debated to pass them without proper
consultations. How do you have a public discussion for one day of a
bill that s not even publicly available?
