What we have learned from the rebel in Egypt?

1. Do not underestimate the people’s power and aggression to fight for dignity and earn back what is theirs. They have long been suffering from poverty and unemployment throughout the 30 years ruling of Hosni Mubarak. The nation also suffered from corruption which makes thing even worse and hinders their progress as a developing country. The Egyptians decided to stage a protest against the government and wanted Mubarak to step down as the president. Millions of people gathered around the Tahrir Square to show their protest towards the government and the world witnessed itself how determine this people are to make a change and have their say on a new ruling. On Feb 11, Mubarak finally stepped down as the president much to the relief of millions of the Egyptians who celebrated this ‘victory’.  The use of social network has become increasingly popular amongst the youth in all over the world. For the Egyptians, they use it as medium to spark a reformation against their long standing ruler, Hosni Mubarak. Through Facebook or Twitter, they began to spread the news of a possibility of a move to bring down the ruling of the Egyptian leader. They kept in touch with each other and exchanged their displeasure with the way they had been treated throughout the reign of the president. They thought it was about time to make their voice heard and decide what is the best for the people of this nation which is to put an end to the ruling of Mubarak.
2.  A leader is supposedly lead by example. Their main priority is to fulfill the people’s need and not to use the power they got to suppress their own people. The rebel in Egypt should set a reminder to those who which to serve their country as a leader or currently occupied one that you are under scrutiny once you start to prioritize your own need beyond anything else. In fact, you made most of your power to get wealthy while your people  are suffering from poverty. A leader should be someone who is respected by its people and the one that you could put so much trust to lead his country towards solidarity.
