The Little Red Dot
-
In the east was a little red dot,
Once a one-man-one-vote democracy,
Where good men were elected by citizens
To save them from injustices and inequity,
To serve people was a highest honor in the land,
But once elected, they were halloed with talents,
And must be given the ultimate power,
To ride over disagreements with their wishes,
So they say freedoms will lead to chaos,
They tweak laws to arrest citizens without warrant,
And became haughty and **@#ey,
Governing is not for service or accountability,
Service is no longer a duty or honor
Talents are decided by tea party not owned by many,
So people are asked to keep them as talents,
By paying them the world's highest salaries,
Benchmarked against lucky lottery winning few
Without performance, capitals or entrepreneurship,
Not satisfied with the highest salaries,
And writing of their own pay cheques,
They reward themselves the highest bonuses,
Lifelong pensions and double pays for retiring while working,
That surpass even president of United States,
Alas with such salaries they cannot overcome recessions,
That caused citizens' wages to drop to third world,
Ministers deny all NKF problems with press control,
Which reported only good news and no solutions,
Ministers have no solutions except to cut citizens' wages,
And import foreigners to replace lost citizens,
They waited till world recovery to claim victory,
To reassert their forever claim of talents,
To increase their own salaries, they now claim responsibility,
By saying while others are relaxing they are all working,
Despite cancer and other challenging conditions,
They say even Bill Gates or Lee Ka Shing are doing less,
So they tax, recover all costs keeping taxes as surplus,
Double taxing on lands and infrastructures through GLCs,
So they make profits in every direction,
But they do not have to spend on services,
For surpluses will then pay for their lifelong retirements,
They say one-man-one-vote will cause freak election,
So they tinker with the single-ward voting process,
Votes cannot be cast except in groups or GRC
In name it was to provide racial harmony,
But in reality to block candidates standing in single wards,
Till no one is standing except ministers bundled in groups
They would tweak the laws and increase election deposits,
They sue any one for speaking out of turn
Till Election day is day for erection of banners,
For there is no candidates due to no contest in GRCs,
Some rebates may be given on conservancy,
To pacify peasants and potential rebel,
Once election is over, GST will be increased
Low-cost public housing built on lands paid by people,
Yet were charged at market value less discount called subsidy,
Forever and ever life is more taxes and more charges,
For surpluses to pay world's highest bill collectors,
Who in a recession will say it is not their responsibility
As problems were caused by globalization or rising China,
Alas surpluses were lost in suzhou or shin corp,
Due to honest mistakes or long term investments,
Election goodies will soothe away unhappy memories,
Integrated resort built over dead body to drown misery,
Over fiasco in economic restructuring and dropping wages,
Never mind the 20 major failures like the rising costs,
For they will say which country has no rising costs,
For they will say people must trust leaders,
For they will say every one makes mistakes,
For problems they will say citizens are lucky,
By comparing with others with worse calamities,
They call themselves world class in performance,
Saying recessions are not caused by them,
That people must be skilled or retrained,
That people must realize little red dot has no resources,
That people must remain forever grateful to the little red dot. -

To summary,
PAP is the worst political party on this planet. -
wua....he needs to say in 74 sentences and you only need 1 sentence to summarise. I guess that is the difference between a politician, or a poet, or both, and an ordinary man.Originally posted by foomwee88:To summary,

The little red dot
Always talk a lot
To compensate for the smallness
They make their salaries the biggest
Laughing all the way to the bank
They made Bush asks "How can?" -
10 words like the 10 commandments may be brief and easy to understand but are often lost too for being too brief.Originally posted by dbowie:too long summarize in 10 words.
Thou shall not murder or steal or covet but will they help to prevent murders, theft or greeds.
That is why people need help, unity and togetherness to effect change.
Through memorable poems which aptly capture the real issues people will be able to expose wrongful acts and hypocrisy behind all the grandiose schemes and policies designed to benefit only the elites.
People need to stay the course of change and they must counter the constant propaganda of lies and fallacies being repeated ad nausem to brain wash or tie up the people in knots. -
