Do we need change?
Come to think of it, we don't need any change. We have the best political system in the world. We have proven to the world that ours is a system that works. Our people are paid among the highest in the world in every profession. Even our cleaners and sweepers are being paid more than managers and professionals in many countries. This is not simple boasting. It is real.
We have defied all the philosophers and even the founding fathers of America. We have a system that is better than democracy or communism. It is our unique brand.
We have ensured that only the best and talented and incorruptibles are selected to lead the countries. We don't even need a strong opposition to act as the nations's conscience. We don't need to build an infrastructure of checks and balances. With upright and honest people in charge, nothing can go wrong. And if come to the worst, we have vested powers in a strong elected President to check the abuses of a rogue govt.
It is time the world comes to learn from us. This is our greatest contrirbution to mankind. A near perfect system that will check itself from any wrong doings or falling into the hands of a rogue dictator or a bunch of crooks in the future.
Who says our system is fallible? If it is, it will have been tweaked long ago. We don't leave such things to chance.

Who says are system is falliable? The immortal one already said that we are not infalliable. Now, who should I believe?
Our greatest contribution to mankind? Funny, we always rank lowly in human rights and press freedom. How does that benefit mankind I wonder! Oh, you mean contribution in the negative sense.
