THE VALUE OF WORK

Satur Sulit

elections alone won’t buy us good government
good intentions alone don’t guarantee a result
a self-regulating, efficient operation
is won by perfected working relations
it isn’t there on demand, it isn’t there for sale
we must grow it like all things, with care
by doing it right, keeping it going, by being there
it only just happens after some time
when it falls into a rhythm and hums into life
a government that works is the priceless reward
of a nation that works; alas, not until then
