Description of a good leader

Suleiman I, also known as Suleiman the Magnificent, reigned as Sultan of the Ottoman Empire for 69 years, longer than any other Sultan. He never hesitated and never broke the commands he gave. He obliged people according to their capacities and abilities.

Augustus Caesar was Emperor of Rome for 41 years. He implemented Pax Romana which is translated as Roman Peace. This system of rule lasted for close to 1500 years.

Juan Carlos the former King of Spain (1975 to 2014) was a modern marvel, for he lead Spain from a dictatorship to a democracy. He was an adventurous and stern leader. His love for his people was unquestionable. In 2014 he gave up his throne in order to facilitate the energy and attention the people of Spain needed via the ascension of Felipe VI.

The aforementioned leaders made significant change in their respective jurisdictions. We can see that in Trinidad and Tobago in the form of infrastructure and legislation. I am disappointed with the media for their recent shortcomings. The Golconda interchange has been a major source of contention yet there were no pictures at all. True to form Kubs all the way!
