Businesspeople won’t invest unless an elected govt comes to power
At present, all economic indicators are in a bad state
 
Unless an elected government comes to power, businesspeople will not invest, which will harm not only the economy but the nation as a whole.
And those who are trying to obstruct the national election under various pretexts are enemies of the economy – and of the country itself.
At present, all economic indicators are in a bad state. For more than a year now, there has been no foreign investment, and even domestic investment has dried up. No new employment is being created. The state of trade and business is very poor. Ordinary people are struggling, and businesspeople are deeply frustrated.
Some countries are even refusing to issue us visas.
Amid such a difficult time, various political parties are making ill attempts to derail the election. We do not want such a situation. Therefore, an elected government is urgently needed – an elected government is necessary. Without it, there will be no improvement in the country's political or economic situation.
If we truly want to save the economy, we must now focus solely on preparing for the parliamentary election. The issues over which different political parties are taking sides and creating division and uncertainty should not be given importance at this moment.
