After each general election in Singapore, the newly elected head of state gives a speech.
Although there have only been three different heads of state, the speeches given by the heads of state after each election have become a regular part of the process.
Lee Hsien Loong is particularly fond of giving speeches, not only after elections, but also on National Day, Lunar New Year, and other important occasions.
For example, during Singapore's National Day celebrations, Lee Hsien Loong delivered a speech in three different languages, expressing his concerns about war.
Although Merlin is a sorcerer, he followed all the procedures in Singapore from becoming the leader of the People's Action Party to taking over as the head of Singapore.
This means that Merlin's subsequent procedures will still follow Singapore's tradition.
Moreover, prior to today, the Singapore Parliament had hinted that Merlin's speech would take place in front of the Parliament House after the agenda items were reviewed.
This is why so many international media outlets gathered here.
Ten minutes can feel incredibly long when you're really looking forward to something.
As Zheng Li and the other members of parliament filed out of the parliament building, all the cameras present were pointed at Zheng Li and the members of parliament behind him.
The scene of Zheng Li walking in front and Li Xianlong following behind him was captured by reporters from various angles.
The following day, Sin Chew Daily went even further, using the headline "The End of an Era" and placing the scene on its front page.
The gist of it is that the era of the Lee family's rule over Singapore is over, and Singapore will usher in a new ruler in the future.
The scene was very noisy; almost everyone was talking.
"Mr. Merlin, why did you agree to serve as the head of Singapore? What are your plans for the future development of Singapore?"
"Mr. Merlin, what kind of deal did you reach with Mr. Lee Hsien Loong in private? Please answer this question directly."

"Mr. Merlin, may I ask if you have used magic to control the ruling class of Lion City, and thereby achieve your goal of colonizing Earth?"
The reporters used amplification equipment to make the open grassy area feel completely unlike an outdoor space, with noise levels comparable to a vegetable market.
As a strategic foothold for America in Asia, Singapore is also a member of the Commonwealth and has been heavily influenced by Western culture.
All the members of Congress were dressed in suits, except for Zheng Li, who was wearing the mage robes unique to the Mage Alliance.
What sets him apart from others is his use of light and shadow effects.
Although Zheng Li's magical light and shadow effects were very realistic, they were still fundamentally different from those of a real person.
This made Zheng Li stand out among the other members of parliament.
However, even his appearance is different from that of humans, and he is different in every way, so that everyone present can recognize who Merlin is at a glance.
"Is this Merlin's real appearance? Or is it a lighting effect, but his real form and this virtual image are identical in appearance?"
The bigwigs of America were also watching the live stream, and they were equally interested in Merlin.
After all, Merlin possessed the secret to immortality, or at least a part of it.
“Mr. Morgan, we have just accessed hundreds of billions of facial data in our database and have not found a face with a 3D facial image that is more than 50% similar to Merlin’s.”
The American side suspects that Merlin's fictional image is a heavily modified version of a Homo sapiens figure from Earth.
"Okay, let's see what he has to say."
I hadn't really hoped that this would lead to a connection between Merlin and the Earthlings.
"How do you think he transmits the sound?"
According to memoirs from people present at the Stockholm Concert Hall, the consensus was that Merlin's voice sounded as if it were right next to their ears.
"This must be a unique vibration mode, and the vibration points are also arranged in a certain way so that people can feel the sound is ringing in their ears."
The reporters we sent this time were specifically equipped with relevant testing equipment, weren't they?
Once they send the data back, we'll be able to find out more.
This arrangement of sound sources alone is enough to propel the audio industry on Earth forward by leaps and bounds.
As Zheng Li walked out of the Capitol Building, he took a step forward and appeared in front of the podium that had been prepared for him.
It felt like I had stepped out of the world.
This scene was so magical that the questions from the reporters present were much quieter.
After all, magic has been around on Earth for many years, and only a few of the reporters present have actually seen magic in real life.
Except for journalists from England.
English journalists have become accustomed to reporting on magical events.
The English journalists present were the loudest, eager to know if Merlin was connected to the magical events in London.
Instead of resolving the magical events in London.
London has become accustomed to coexisting with magic. If Merlin were to resolve London's magical anomalies, London would return to being an ordinary city, where "ordinary" means losing its superpowers.
England will lose even its last source of economic growth.
Over the years, London has created a large number of related industries around magic and the magic ecosystem.
London's tourism revenue has increased more than tenfold compared to before the magical event.
Moreover, London's financial industry has already suffered a major setback, and even if London returns to normal, the financial sector will not recover.
Because of the existence of magic, Londoners have a strange sense of superiority when they engage in verbal battles with Berliners and Parisians on social media.
