The public debate
Limited to the Chinese audience
Mandarin is the language
Translation available
It wasn't about the debate
It was the respect the leaders cultivated
Though on difference political views
They shared the common traits of uplifting society
While they were debating
The elderly who came to question
They were summarily dismissed
The young breed showing disrespect to the elders
This is the draw card
The crowd of young professionals
They forget the decorum
The old still have the power of vote!
Here is the sad story
Pursuing materialistic wants
The young forget the civil manners
Is this what the nation wanted?
