– they have to realise that the voter himself has decided the result in their favor and he has brought them to the parliament,
– they should live to the trust the voter and the people have granted them and to have sense of responsibility for which they are elected,
– they have to remember that they have promised to work faithfully for the welfare and interest of the people and the country, without giving precedence to regionalism, tribalism, sectarianism and partisan loyalty at the expense of the homeland and people interests,
– they should display modesty in behavior, mix with people and abstain from all aspects of pride and prejudice,
– they should give a good example in not carrying arms, and move around with strongly armed bodyguards,
– they have to be an example in respecting fully and committing to parliament meetings appointments,
– they must not ignore continual contact with their constituencies and prepared to cooperate in solving problems and matters of their constituencies,
– they have to realise that they have no right to show nepotism towards executive officials at the expense of the people's and the homeland interest, in realization of personal whims and interests.
