Freedom of expression
Freedom of thought, Freedom of opinion. This is an illusion some of us here tend to believe in. Others either have never believed there could be any sort of freedom in this country, or don't believe we are mature enough to be trusted and allowed a certain amount of liberty. Such things are never given as presents. Freedom is education and a way of life just like democracy. What democracy can there be with empty stomachs?! Anyway we are a long way from freedom and democracy. What makes matters worse is the fact that there is an impending risk of going back to the old days practices!!

THat is significant - one election does not magically transform a society into a functional, tolerant, egalitarian, democracy.
"The old days practices" are still around in places like NoKo, Iran, Palestine etc
Democracy has to be protected by independent judiciaries - by a free, uncensored press, a ntional treasury under public scrutiny and periodic and transparent elentions.
