Instead of political reform, the regime opted for martiallaw and political suppression. Sheriffs had not been appointed and martiallaw continued as the preferred method of governance. Many had worked with the party and had suffered jail sentences to end martiallaw and to bring about democratic rule in the country. The demonstrations were so severe that the government instituted martiallaw. Once political power was completely lost in the martiallaw years, the family was stripped of its business corporations overnight. He then enlisted it in repression, using the army against labour, declaring martiallaw and steadily militarising provincial administration and education. He signed orders for numerous death sentences, author ised executions and instituted martiallaw. This break was further made apparent by his assuming dictatorial powers under martiallaw. The martiallaw made open dialogue on these issues difficult, and prevented early warning studies of the inevitable problems from influencing the policy debate. A country periodically beset with rioting soldiers and sailors might well have appreciated the exemplary, and speedy, punishments which only martiallaw could mete out. Martiallaw and press censorship were the twin pillars of an oppressive regime. Other issues were tackled by the petition, namely forced loans, billeting and martiallaw, but discretionary imprisonment was the one which dominated parliamentary proceedings prior to the petition. The point of time at which martiallaw shall be withdrawn is under consideration. From the Hansard archive Example from the Hansard archive.
