Really enjoyed this video! I'm starting to make videos like this but definitely would like to learn the way you frame shots. We loved our stay at MOHK but one thing that was a bit underwhelming was the pool. Hope that change that LCD screen haha
Brilliant highly educated Confucian - would have been less successful and legendary if he had an unruly 50+ minorities and vast millen9as old, geography influenced cultural differences - only 2
Yew and the PAP's "main principle" seems to be, "Only WE know best for Singapore! Therefore, no one else must be allowed 'too much' party rule or democracy, or else... CHAOS" lmfao What a crock of self-serving bs
Lee Kwan Yew and his allies *allied with the Singapore Left* to overthrow British colonialism ...and then threw a lot of them in jail and banned various left-wing parties/factions once they were no longer 'politically convenient' to the new ruling class led by him They also framed a bunch of "Marxists" for a fake "conspiracy" in the late 1980s (Operation Spectrum), among other things
He said it only works if you have 60-70% of middle classes and educated middle class. I totally agree as democracy needs educated and economically well off citizens to support it.
mr. li is great statesman and politician who speaks the truth and facts. his speech and advise has no bias like chris patten who only want to stir up conflicts and protect British colonial interests
Hundreds of years ago, when the Western maritime civilisations set out to explore the world and encountered natives of "Deepest, Dark Africa", and discovered the "New World", and then various other natives in other dark, swampy, tropical areas (Asia), and realised that these primitive tribal people had not had the privilege of being touched by Christianity, and they, the explorers, out of the goodness of their hearts, decided that the best thing they could do for these heathens was to introduce them to Christianity. Today, this "policy" is recognised for the arrogant chauvinism that it is, and has been dropped, and remediated where possible. "Democracy" is the new religion, and disseminated with the same religious fervour regardless of situation, context, relevance, and applicability. The US, that bastion and paragon of Democracy (read this sarcastically), decided out of the goodness of their democratic heart, that Afghanistan just needed Democracy. And so the US went into Afghanistan, and in 20 years tried to establish a Democratic Nation. They SUCCEEDED! (read this sarcastically), and left Afghanistan. Democracy. What is it good for?
They weren't interested in democracy. That is a ruse. They are interested in opening markets to their products and getting cheap raw materials to make finished products to sell back to the supplier of raw materials. Saudi Arabia is not a democracy. Has it been invaded and a democratic government installed?
No just look at Nigeria, with plenty human and natural resources we have but our leaders are still interested in developing the Europe and western world with our fund. It's only democracy that will bring useless people for leadership positions.
Well he's completely wrong. Singapore is in a fortunate location as a gobal trade hub, but it's contributed very little to the world compared to similar sized liberal democracies in western countries like finland. Its biggest companies are just overseas banks and other financial institutions.
You think bank is not important? Singapore is also a financial hub in asia aside from hong kong. If banks fail, the effect would spill over the rest of asia and possibly Europe as well
