In the east was a little red dot,
A one-man-one-vote democracy,
Where men were elected by citizens
To serve with honor and humility,
Alas these men once given opportunity,
Began to claim to have talents and mandate,
They tweak the laws to cling onto power,
And became haughty and **@#ey,
To give themselves power and the highest salaries,
Selectively benchmarked to the lucky lottery winning few,
To pay themselves the highest salaries,
That surpass the president of United States,
They say such highest salaries are still not enough,
They take the highest bonuses and life-long fees,
Some get double pays for retiring while working,
They tax, charge all costs and keep taxes as surplus,
To them taxes and surpluses are evidences of success,
To them providing services will sow the seed of welfarism,
For doing a bill collector job, they claim success,
To them any alternatives will destabilise the country,
To them one-man-one-vote will lead to freak election,
So on and on with hypocrisy they tweak the voting process,
Giving excuses like need for racial harmony,
Citizens can vote only on group representation or GRC
As that will block any good candidates to stand in single
wards,
What they want is to cling to power that no one speaks the
truth,
So they use the defamation laws to sue opposing candidates,
Which were heard by their own appointed judges,
Where innuendos are admitted as direct actus,
Until no alternative candidates are left on election day,
Election day becomes a day for erection of banners,
To declare walk over due to no contest in GRCs,
Some rebates will be given on conservancy,
To pacify peasants and potential rebel,
Once election is over, GST will be increased
From selling public housing built on people's lands,
Charged at market value at discount called subsidy,
Forever and ever there will be more taxes,
They will claim talents so as to be paid world's highest
salaries,
Otherwise they may turn to corruption or lose talents,
Alas surpluses were lost in suzhou or shin corp,
But these were no mistakes but long term investments,
Election goodies will take care of unhappy memories,
Integrated resort which were once bad become good,
Never mind dropping wages and broken promises,
Never mind perpetual taxing and charges and rising costs,
They will say which country has no rising costs,
They will say people must trust leaders,
They will say every one makes mistakes,
They will say People are the grousers,
They cannot guarantee performance due to globalization,
They cannot guarantee value-add economic restructuring,
They claim that little red dot is a great success,
People must remain grateful to the little red dot.
