5 REASONS WE NEED LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Content: Or on what you need to create a better community environment or to improve your local economy. Those things are for you to focus on. The first reason is Governance. As a citizen, you are responsible for the success of your country. You expect to live up to that responsibility by participating in the decision-making process, not just by choosing someone to make your decisions for you every five years. Making noise is not an effective form of participation in the building of the nation. The second reason is Participation. Sustained development requires sustained focus.
