மேலே சொல்லப்பட்ட எல்லாம் இருந்தாலும் குடிமக்கள் மீது அன்பு இல்லாத அரசு அமைந்துவிட்டால் அதனால் ஒரு நன்மையும் இல்லை.

நல்ல அரசு அமையாத நாட்டில் எல்லாவித வளங்களும் இருந்தாலும் எந்தப் பயனும் இல்லாமற் போகும்

நல்ல அரசன் பொருந்தாத நாடு, மேற்சொன்ன நன்மைகள் எல்லாம் அமைதிருந்த போதிலும் அவற்றால் பயன் இல்லாமல் போகும்.

Although in possession of all the above mentioned excellences, these are indeed of no use to a country, in the absence of harmony between the sovereign and the sujects

Kural 740 speaks about the importance of harmony between the ruler and the ruled in a country. Even if a country is endowed with all kinds of natural resources and wealth, they are meaningless if there is a lack of good governance and rapport between the sovereign and the subjects. The Kural emphasizes that the wealth of a nation is not just its material resources, but also the harmony, unity, and mutual respect between its ruler and its people. It suggests that without good governance and a ruler who genuinely cares for his or her subjects, all the wealth and resources are of no use. They cannot bring prosperity or happiness to the people. In essence, this Kural highlights the critical role of leadership in a nation's development and prosperity. It underscores that an effective and empathetic leader is one who maintains a harmonious relationship with his subjects, understanding their needs, and working towards their welfare. Without such a leader, even a resource-rich nation can fail to prosper. So, the Kural implies that good governance and a harmonious relationship between the ruler and the people are more valuable than any material resources or wealth.
