[quote]A public opinion survey financed by the Danish Foreign Ministry and conducted by the American National Democratic Institute (NDI) and the Danish JMW Consulting makes some revealing insights into the views of Libyans on security, democracy, militias, Islam, political parties, women etc.
The survey entitled “Seeking Security”, released this week, was conducted last month using face-to-face interviews of 1,200 randomly chosen Libyans from Libya’s 13 Municipalities based on the 2006 census. This is the second opinion survey conducted, the first being in May.
The survey makes six main sets of conclusions including; Libyans are optimistic , are concerned by security, support democracy, are unhappy with the GNC’s performance, reject militias, approve of quotas and an increased role for women in politics.[/quote]

If this works out Libya can be used as a template for democracy and secularism in that region.
