Every grievance expressed by the public will be heard and be followed up.<\/p>\n<p>I also call on the entire nation to remain vigilant, especially against elements that consistently seek to incite disorder and chaos.<\/p>\n<p>Let me emphasize to all the people that such actions bring no benefit to our citizens, to our society, nor to our nation.<\/p>\n<p>Our country is in the process of improvement.

We shall become a self-reliant nation, standing firmly on our own feet. We shall build an industrialized state equal to other nations.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, we must remain vigilant, we must remain calm, and we must not allow groups who seek to incite disorder and unrest.<\/p>\n<p>Legitimate aspirations may, certainly, be expressed.
