  7. Won't introducing these reforms simply destabilize an already fragile political system?

    It may take some time for people to adjust to the reforms. However, because the reforms are comprehensive and make intuitive sense, most people will have little difficulty in adjusting. What needs to be borne in mind is that even if there is a mild short-term disruption to the political process, the long-term benefits of the reforms more than justify this mild disruption.
