  1. @mushi Well, it's unlikely it'll get to that point, the political climate is different now than it was decades ago when that stuff happened. At most they'll change the legislation a bit towards what they see as better, but it'd be extremely hard for any government to shift into a military dictatorship. Still, it does seem they're getting there without much thought into what they'll actually do once they're the government which is slightly more worrying. I'd say whether it ends up being an ok government or a disaster depends entirely on the ministers and advisors that they pick, and how they translate the concepts of "fight corruption" and "don't be communist" into practice. Responsible ministers would have more than enough room to work while individuals that just want to take advantage of the situation can also cause quite a bit of trouble if they say the right words to those above them.
