Recently i just watched a series of 4 videos in Malaysiakini, interviewing 2 political analysts. Unfortunately the video is in Mandarin. They have some very good piece of advice for the new incoming State government currently held by Opposition.

Since the problems of these states which were under BN's rules for so many years... 50 years problems past down to a new government, it just cannot be solved immediately to meet the voters' super high expectation.
So the state government has to be realistic. They are required to set up a short term and long term plan. They should tell the voters clearly on what would they do and could achieve in this period of 4 - 5 years. Constant communication between the government and the people is vital, so that the voters could be more patient and understanding about the situation of government. Let people know how much time the government needs to get all their MPs adapted to their role ( as many are inexperience and are political rookie). All the election promises that had made, the government is responsible to set a timetable on when they are going to fulfill the promises, so that the voters could judge the performance of the government based on that, rationally.
High hopes usually accompany with big disappointment, if the government fails to keep up to the hopes. So i hope you (Nat) and Anwar Ibrahim could do better to handle these issues. =)
