The thing I appreciate most about parties is the transparency. Priot to this we had people who mysteriously joined the forums around the time of elections and voted in a random person into an office such as MoFA who had 1. not contributed to the region in any way and 2. Dissapeared without doing anything in their position except for blocking people who were actively involved in the region from partaking. 3. Brought in foreign interests and politics and pre-empted them to regional ones.

Then, I actually really admire your will and motivation to mobilize as parties. It actually speaks to the old timers having to perhaps stop being isolated cells and actually work harder on compromising and wooing people.

At the end of the day parties are actually a healthy sign that the region will not stagnate under the same old same old and that people will need to work harder to be politicians that the majority wants to support.
