This is one big observation i make, IK is really taking the cabinet seriously and makes sure that the cabinet meets every week to every second week. This must be unprecedented in our history before i.e the frequency with which the govt holds these cabinet meetings.

Under the PML - N in the 90's, i read that NS didn't bother to hold a cabinet meeting for almost 6 months and some ministers were unable to get a hold of him.

The positives are that this shows the commitment of the government to addressing the issues and challenges being faced by the country. The downside is that if the Cabinet is meeting every week to every second week, do the ministers get enough time to do their jobs properly, shouldn't they be given some buffer i.e. atleast a month to do their job before reporting to the PM. Another potential problem is the risk of burnout.
 
Dont think there is any risk of burnout.

These guys dont work the way the average man in a white collar job works.

The biggest issue which PTI faces now is that most media houses (due to lack of government funded sponsorships) are against them and are busy creating a false perception that all is doomed.

It was the same in his 3rd term. It was a simple case of rewarding cronies for loyalty- just look at the their behaviour in the Panama case and their loyalty to the crook.
