Time to initiate urgent reforms in the banking sector
After the students' movement, an interim government assumed the responsibility of state management under special circumstances. The interim government is now passing three months in office. Public expectations from this government are very high. People hope that it will steer the country towards sustainable development by addressing the various damages created in society. However, there are growing concerns that public trust in the interim government is gradually fading. Although several commissions have been formed for reforms in various sectors, the general public is not well-informed about their activities and progress. In particular, there is skepticism about what the interim government is planning regarding the troubled banking sector and how much of that we will be able to see reflected in the future.
