ENGLISH: A WAR CHAMPION.

The origin of this saying is a powerful creature. That creature passes anywhere because of its powers. That is why people call it ‘A war champion.’

The saying is used comparatively to refer to any individual who works hard patiently for the purpose of finishing it. The individual may even clear a forest to get a farm for cultivating crops. The individual cultivates large fields, which enables him/her to feed many people.

Such a person becomes a role model for his or her colleagues in the execution of their responsibilities, because of their willingness to work in support of their colleagues. That is why people call him/her, ‘A war champion.’

The saying teaches people how to use their power to help each other in fulfilling their responsibilities, so that they can better support their families in their lives.
