Let them choose and let us not restrict the range of choice that law permit. Rather educate the public on importance of the role of such institution so that public will chose wisely. That is democracy!

You can't have someone running an office through trial and error just because this one has a degree. If a 20 or 25 something year olds have dabbled in politics in college, it would also constitute as an "experience".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5927086664707056533.post-87275849068440134072013-05-14T14:46:48.874+06:002013-05-14T14:46:48.874+06:00For once, I will beg to differ with the author.
2...For once, I will beg to differ with the author.<br /><br />25 years, to a person my age, would think is too young a age for almost anything, let alone political participation. However, we ought to give credit that a person of 25 years (give or take a few years) is mature enough to understand the issues laid on the table. With a degree education I must say he/she should have seen and heard enough to understand the situation that governs his/her surroundings. <br /><br />Yes, not all 47 25 years olds could form an effective government. Yet again, 47 65 year olds would not be a great choice either.<br /><br />You give me a man with 100 years sweeping experience, but I will still follow that 25 year old chap who has got a degree.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5927086664707056533.post-66717673420200422022013-05-12T13:32:26.172+06:002013-05-12T13:32:26.172+06:00I don't think there is anything to be alarmed ...I don't think there is anything to be alarmed about, I come from the school of thought which says, that whoever has been elected deserves to be there. After all, in a democracy, the will of the people is all that matters and far from belittling the greenhorn as you put it, you should actually be singing his praises. For all you know, this Greenhorn may just prove very capable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5927086664707056533.post-21668706766016020152013-05-09T08:47:01.433+06:002013-05-09T08:47:01.433+06:00Well, may be the lobbying by the young buck was mo...Well, may be the lobbying by the young buck was more effective, but in general, am sure the people will choose maturity and experience over greenhorns. It's a good point though about the pre-requisites. There should be a clause in there regarding requirement of some experience to stand as a candidate instead of someone straight out of college.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5927086664707056533.post-41370545373053754272013-05-08T16:41:23.697+06:002013-05-08T16:41:23.697+06:00Oai Yeshy Sir (I am uuing sir after Yeshy mai, mea...Oai Yeshy Sir (I am uuing sir after Yeshy mai, meaning this is Bhutanese's term). I fully agree with you. It means a green pea can be substituted for a cooked potato, ena? Now how to rectify this LAW? <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
