I think his majesty understood full well that these were seismic rumblings. And the region has had for a long time been bereft of real reforms. His majesty began earlier on. And i think you know now felt that for those who had a vested interest in the stat usco, this is their time to understand status quo, this is their time to understand something is changing.
