Simply because parties cannot agree on the constitution, it does not mean that they cannot set a common understanding on how to boost the economy. The country does not need new vision on how to create and nourish a “bottom up” prosperity, ensuring that economic growth, also through special arrangements, can be really inclusive and not elude those down the social-economic ladder.

When global media sanctify few well deserving social heroes but ignore other hidden personalities like Kailash Satyarthi, we should always be aware of having too much visibility and clamor even if it is totally justified. After all the concept of social justice should not be that controversial nor radical but often times only radical approaches achieve the desired change.

Through ideas and propositions, the not for profit sector can acquire not only relevance but also the legitimacy that it still lacks while breaking the monopoly on policy making held by the bureaucrats with the backup of donors agencies. Those members of parliament genuinely serious about the country should also appreciate it.
