In the Middle East the Arab Spring protests began for the reason of the oppression of the people and their rights. Like the countries of the Libya, Syria, Egypt and others. Tunisia continues and was just an inch closer to their overall freedom. Parliamentary elections took place which leads the citizens to have the freedom to stand out against the government without the fear of retaliation. Media played a significant role in it as well as the situations also altered the regional dynamics. The wave of Arab Spring uprising lead the way about an effort to terminate the oppression on the corruption, free speech, economic mismanagement, political dissent and to end the human right abuses. Those efforts were being recognized and are promoting so slowly to the country’s views on justice and the human dignities which are significant for each citizen in the country.
