    People do not like politics but only politic solution are avaible for political crisis ! Then what political solution ? Answer: South-african political solution can only bring peace and prosperity like in South-Africa . The two men (Ravalomanana and Rajoelina) must apply for the presidency ,like in 1996 the two men (Ratsiraka and Zafy)from the coast compete for the presidency ! Every one must have the right to apply for the Presidency of his country to do and bring his best like Mandela and Frederic de Clerk .Not to allow Ravalomanana to apply for the Presidency is like to give favour for the french colonial-politics !Many people want to serve France ,but no more colonialisme ,Rajoeline can apply again may he loose or not ,but Ravalomanana would no more apply after the year of 65 .We need peace and progress like South-africa .God bless Africa ,God bless South-Africa,God bless SADEC,God bless Madagascar ,in Jesus Name !
