It's a well thought out timely editorial to remind people of the reason for the impeachment process and implied dangers of its success. The president could not have contested the presidential election in 2005 if not for a friendly ruling by former CJ of stopping the police investigation of allegations of misappropriation of Tsunami funds. The incumbent CJ is independent and stands with the people which is intolerable to this regime that wants to bulldoze its way.

What you say is absolutely correct but the SC & CJ are not blameless for this situation. The decision by the SC under the current CJ (whilst she was on the right side of ….) for not requiring a referendum before promulgating the 18A bill and allowing that bill to be rushed through parliament as an “urgent bill in the national interest” were both flawed. The country and the CJ herself are paying for these flawed decisions.

Well articulated. All right minded people understand the issue at hand and outright reject the flawed PSC process. If govt tries to march forward disregarding this fact and blaming the intellectual community of conspiring with diaspora etc, it would definetely lead to a chaotic situation. If the govt is really patriotic it should listen to sensible intellectuals rather than pressing on a high handed egoistic approach.
