Hopefully the other forces there can take advantage of the gangs pulling back and help the people there a bit more.

Therein lies another problem - who governs? My guess is that there are so many rivalries it would be tough to name someone who could unite the nation.

That's the reality of the place, someone has to go tribal and restart the society and then work toward decency.

So Bukele has been criticized for his methods in El Salvador.
His Government has detained and arrested roughly 2% of the general population. The controversial aspect of his policy was that he not only targeted the gangs but also those who aided and abetted, that includes those who paid extortion money to the gangs in exchange for protection.
The outcome though of this is that El Salvador went from the Country with the highest murder rate in the World to one of the safest places in the World in the span of a couple of years.
