Mr. RALPH Ramkarran is right in his article that QUESTIONS MUST BE ASKED, but I am not sure who he thinks should be asking the questions, if not the elected officials?  Or what action GoG can take immediately and long term to correct the obvious known problems, he himself described. I do not belittle the successes of the forces; however, these were the reason for their existence and cannot be allowed to give any cover to their systemic problems, seen by civilians daily.    

It astounds me that the only difference between the security forces and the criminals, seem to be some AK-47’s and a better motivation, not special training or just money.  While some were complaining about not getting the SWAT training and heavy weapons, the GDF had AK-47’s in storage. I still believe we need 1-3 outside officers with special skills for key areas in the GPF.

Unfortunately, it appears that the GoG and opposition have created a buffer between the Security and civilian authority that makes official questioning or reforms hard to make.  Questioning the services is not political, unpatriotic, ungrateful or unreasonable.  We need to change what we can today and tomorrow where we can.  Prevailing culture stymies any attempts made by internal or external attempts for changes.
