Dr Abdullah Aweel writes that continuation of talk about programs of reforms is no longer arousing interest of the political street in Yemen. The citizen has not found something useful on the ground. He has not tangibly seriousness on part of the authority in taking practical measures paving the way for real reforms and the opposition has not agreed upon serious steps to push forwards towards reforms. He writer proposes that to get out oft his crisis there must be practical steps towards gradual reforms according to the present availability as long as there is at present no political will for comprehensive reform on part of the political administration and the constitution and laws. We are in need of scheduling the various issues of reform, defining its priorities and directing the society's energy towards the firs of those priorities.
