Also, I am saying, its better for a phase wise democratic transition than an all out. If you look at the nations with successful democracies, they are the ones who made a phase-wise transition by first refornming thgeir economies, then promoting a rule of law regime and constitutionalism, achieving a consensus among the players involved, bridingigg the difefrences in the population.. and when they made a transition, they became sucessful democracies.. South Korea, Taiwan, Chile..Singapore, Morocco are preparing for demorcatic transitions.. so, first have the institutions in place, then go for an all out democracy.
