ENFORCING THE “END TO SIT AT HOME” POLICY


I have to be honest , making this decision was not easy. 


We officially declared that the ‘sit at home’ culture must end, and it must be enforced seriously. 


I felt a surge of determination when I spoke these words because I know how much this affects ordinary citizens. 


Families, workers and traders people whose lives are disrupted every time activity stops.

Sitting there, announcing this policy, I thought about the frustration of those who want to go about their daily lives but can’t. 


I imagined the mothers, fathers, and young people trying to earn a living, only to find the streets empty and businesses closed. 


That feeling of empathy mixed with urgency drove the decision home for me.

I know it won’t be easy to enforce, and yes, some may resist, but I feel strongly that this is a step toward progress. 


Our state cannot thrive when fear keeps people at home. 


My hope is that everyone will see this not as punishment, but as a call to action a call to reclaim our Mondays, our markets, and our productivity.
