Just economic development and military power can't
Make one nation a Superpower in the whole world
Unless socio-economic progress of people is achieved
Governed by democratic system with freedom and liberty!
Without intellectual development of knowledge, maturity
Of mind and creativity, a nation cannot produce quality
Products by invention or innovation to have even market
Ever in the modern material world of great competition!
What Japan does so achieves first rank in the world
And its follower South Korea achieves second rank, but
The copier of the two China by substandard quality works
Though achieves big market by chance, is third rate only!
It requires knowledge, talent and hard work, to achieve
Developed status but not by aping others sans quality!
