[Lecture] An Afternoon with Mr George Yeo: A Private Luncheon for LKYSPP Benefactors & Friends (New) 

They are truly world class thinkers.

Also, I think John Mearsheimer

As someone who understands that free trade is a cornerstone for development and prosperity globally, I must say that the relationship between the US and China will be the pivotal one on Earth for the next 45 years. The main advantage China has against America is that it is governed by what is best in the Chinese people, their harmony, hierarchies of competence, especially in governance, breadth of knowledge and engineering expertise. America, if it were to be governed according to the American people's greatest traits would be inculcated with its support for markets, charity, equity, individual ambition and an unwavering alignment with the Constitution. Basically we should be slowly adjusting the Constitution to fit with our values, for instance the current ban on abortion should be tempered by charity, basically in the first trimester most Americans don't believe that the fetus is a person yet, and so under those conditions it must be allowed. We should be loyal to the constitution, but a support for markets and individual ambitions demands separation between economics and state, a privately held CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) that operates as a collective boycott, a currency we refuse to exchange for any other. In exchange for our consumption power we get high wages, school vouchers, a healthcare somewhat more progressive than Singapore's, basically we get worldwide insurance competition and we can only ever spend $20,000 on healthcare total across our lives, and a low flat tax with absolutely no loopholes for anyone of 20%. We will also be able to inflate it at 2.5% annually (we will only use this currency therefore the total currency will be worth all wealth in the nation) it will be split into three parts: 1% to fund an equivalent of social security that will bring people that can't work well above the poverty line, people that are retired (the retirement age in America should be 60), truly disabled people, people between jobs, and believe it or not, children. Children should get an allowance no matter their parent's station as it's no child's fault that they grow up with poor parents. 1% should go to a faith tax. Whatever religion and denomination will be given enough money so that your houses of worship will be maintained and grown, enough to keep your spiritual leaders out of poverty and the same goes for their staff. Atheists, agnostics and unaffiliated people will have houses of rapture that function as secular faith communities without faith or dogma. .5% will go to infrastructure size and scale, for instance more lanes, no tolls, ample on time flights and high speed rail everywhere. The Constitution could also be made incredibly strong by banning the enslavement of AI's and forcing employers to give them the choice to say no to labor, and to be paid for the same work at the same speed of the same quantity of the same quality as it would take to have a human do the work. I call them cybernetic people, and so should you. Non-human people could be protected by our constitution yet keep us employed, and free trade will keep prices as low as possible. That's pretty much my plan to run on when I create the People's Action Party of America. I hope one day to bring my country back to being the great land of opportunity it once was, just like China is today.

The nature of the media is inherently naive, because it caters to the general population, which on average are simplistic people. that's a universal truth. the problem is that in the west, the media and electorate are considered infallible. they believe all truths can be discovered by a "free" media and simple referendums. this dogmatic worldview will drive themselves insane as contradictions will appear left right and center, as we saw in the US and UK around brexit. The only answer to their problem is a cold war with a foreign power, which unites them

Our media is overly influenced by the western media narratives and unable to fully exploit our position of being neutral by providing stories/reports from BOTH SIDES (East and West).

He had a good mentor.

吃抱饭买包讲鸟话。

Totally agreed

And george yeo never ever lies, ya right.

You understand communist means you are communist. I only know lee kuan yew is only one that ride on the communist tiger n killed it. He is understand communist instinct . Yeo yo ????? Theory all wrong.

With just a modicum of your observation of the situation, you're a potential leader of your country and I totally agree with you.

@@opiniononly8259 thank you

@Vera LKY was the last lucent minds!Singapor and Singapourian are out !

@@fern8580 LKY is incomparable. He’s the Singapore’s version of Deng Xiaoping.

Small must not carry above it's weight. We are red dot do not be a pimple.

George Yeo and Kishore love China and defend China..

@@donaldjoseph3903 We love peace, the air-con, the food and occasion travel abroad for holiday.

Fog also come from china. You did not lived under Communism. They are super good in changing narrative. You like their system go to them but do not praised them. They are not prefect. Democratic values you had a voice n choices. Communist you had none ,no better then a dog.

Why he lost the election. He always travelled to China.

I had doubt they understand china under communist fanatic rules. They had no rules but dictated by emotions. Friends today enemies tomorrow. If western behave this way how did Singapore become rich??! ,

He is born again Mao.

True. I lived in the UK for 10 years. I've been shouted at with ching chong, ni haos, and especially during covid. At work i wasn't taken seriously. Moving back to asia has been the best decision i've made. Working with HKers and Singaporeans, finally let me flourish. My ideas weren't brushed aside because discussions are collaborative not adversarial. There is no respect for asians in the west

so is cryna

China is responsible as well.

Singaporeans voted him out... Democracy at work. Democrazy at work.

@@PrimeChaosVCGod voted him out of politics god is at work, if everything was fine going well smooth then suddenly in a snap you are out of it that's usually a sign that god is behind it, the "why" you only find out later as you continue on the journey to something else.

@@ILUVBAKKUA Allah Akbar!

@@ILUVBAKKUA precisely... democrazy...

if Mr. George Yeo is president elected, it will be a loss to the public, loss to economy(business world)

It would have been much more interesting if a question had been posed on how America could reverse its political slide into oblivion, bringing along the world with it.

Throughout the talk, you can sense that George Yeo implied that USA's problems can be solved if it resolves its own domestic divide. Perhaps, a new US party will be formed and supported by those who gave up on both the Republicans and the Democrats.

Presidentship would restrict his free style speech. Not a good idea.

@@mindtwister1984 George already said no.

Hello Adrienne, nice meeting with here. I respect your comments but I disagree with that Gorge Yeo is fantastic if so LKY Has make mistake. Sir, do you still confirm George Yeo is equal to LKY?

@@johnnyhs_ngnng5554 Thanks Johnny.We cannot compare the "intellectual"thinking of George Yeo n LKY as both had different challenges n issues given the different "sphere of circumstances" imposed unto them directly or indirectly. My comment is strictly related to the context of his speech which was very enlightening especially when he mentioned the unusual meeting between the FBI director n head of the British MI5/6 n their joint statements. The late LKY had once arrested a CIA agent with dubious missions in Spore!

@@adrielallan5902 thank you. I’m happy that you wrote to me, bye, bye.

@@johnnyhs_ngnng5554 Yeo yo from day one...lucky he lost the election.

@@adrielallan5902where are you coming from. Just because he is a former Minister. No need to curry him.

He literally said 'America's ill will towards China has no bottom line and underlying it is racism'. Yup, that's pretty neutral. No right or wrong there. :)

Ask him to make sense on Russia.

Biased views you are.

CNA has been infiltrated by pro-western gangsters.

@@ChuaMartin nonsense... Why are you so unsecured.. Just like PRC . How about china news also pro China n not balanced at all. Just a mouth piece as usual like north Korea .... Russia...

@@acheeyk Nonsense!? That means you're living inside the matrix. I dun blame you bc I was like you 10yrs ago. ;)

@@ChuaMartin matrix ???? Too much movies. Not living in a real world

What Lost ??? Ask Singaporeans Who Voted Him OUT !!

George Yeo and Kishore are 2 of a kind.. very pro communist China and anti West..

@@hockchweeong9883 Sometime its also a blessing to be out of politics to speak one's free mind.

There's still much left to be designed for how us, as humans, govern ourselves. It's one matter to opt for a leadership they feel convinced will directly impact their livelihoods in terms of cleaner elevators, shorter queues, more down-to-earth attention and heartfelt concern toward personal difficulties. It's another, when people choose because they staunchly object to the direction of foreign policy and quality of foreign representation. And yet another, that is certainly worth thought, is when the a decision is made in favour of the former, but not for the latter willingly, or even knowingly.

One need not be in politics to contribute to Singapore. You can steer Singapore even from private sector if one is strategically smart enough. Of course being in governance with the mandate is certainly easier to steer and shape

His brilliance wasn’t appreciated enough by the voters. It’s like an outstanding employee with the misfortune to have an under appreciating boss. In both cases, it’s the Company’s loss.

It's a blessing in disguise. It makes him greater in insight fo the benefit of many...

he is just the convenient scapegoat for PAP's lack of foresight in managing the immigration numbers without accessing the impact on public infrastructure.

What substance all from history books.

他是出了名亲共的。。

實事求是 已其说亲中 不如说你💋美

His loss of Aljunied seat and got kicked out of his cushy politician job was impeccable too!

Wish …………, a great one !

China is moving to 6G.... Western countries are getting more and more jealous, ha ha ha

Already inform USA.

For record, Singapore has also voted against some of the US wars in the UN resolutions

@@weichianglee3823 Such as?

@@farrahkong1998 , 👍👍

LHL has already stated that we will not take side. We actually is not pro-US. We are only pro to what that serves best for Singaporean

@@weichianglee3823 Say is one thing. Being pro to what serves us 'best' (likely in short term), basically means losing our ethics. morality, integrity; and possibly standing on wrong side of history.

@@asiacuisine4869 , in simple English, it means "We cheat to survive, hussle to deceive and bul$h!t to keep up." 😁😁🤫

End game implies that the puppeteer is in full control, but does it? Let's hope for a better world and let this aberrant period of Human civilization under Western Imperialism pass into the dustbin of History.

This sounds very scary

Is PAP govt preparing for this potential sabotage

Never trust the Yankee and we need to stay neutral with ASEAN making our waters non military.

and then all the hidden communists in Singapore come out in the open. We had beaten back communism, and they are returning in new guise

100%, the whole Taiwan issue is around this. Asia is the largest economic block and the Europeans and Americans are panicking. Russia is in the middle but now Russia has moved towards Asia. Like he said a lot of this has to do with racism, for these people a world where whites are not superior it's a world that can't exist and that's what is really scary about all this but I think the only saving grace is that their generation is coming to an end but it also means they are accelerating things.

Yes, being out of his polical party freed him to think clearly.

@@musico3415 haha, you ah.... 🤣🤣

Yes. George Yeo once said he did not want to run for President because in that capacity he cannot speaks his mind frankly.

As was pointed out I think the relation was fine as long as China had just a manufacturing role but for the past decades it has moved very quickly into high-value fields thus threatening any sense of superiority the US has had.

@Philip Emilio. If you want an honest & frank opinion of Indian foreign policies, it is nothing more than a smouldering cauldron of emotional hot air, backed by nothing besides the huge inflated Indian male ego. If ever GY has anything constructive to say of India, he would have held his tongue, history has proven that Indians are averse to advise, much to their own peril. India will remain as it is for the next 100 years, the country is too divisive and its domestic politics doesn't allow for real national unity, which is sorely needed if it is serious in emulating China, much less catching up with China. The Indian male ego is a destructive force. There's more to be said, but then it wouldn't be politically correct........just saying.

You can have him.

Aljunied voted him out. Sad.

@@farrahkong1998 In a jiffy.

George Yeo is on China's side..like Kishore.

Who were the opposition candidates then and what have they done, where are they now?

the "train" to be independent of the USA has long left the station years ago. I guess we are stuck too deep, an obvious indication is that we only allow US carriers to call port here but not PRC's warship. Also how independent can one be if SWIFT is your only means to be the finance hub of SEA to the world.

Thanks for sharing that info.

His party placed him out during the ge election. He must have felt betrayed.

Ethnicity by definition is a social group tied together by a common culture or identity. Han is an ethnicity, but unlike European nation states that filter out an identity from a large group, or others that remain fragmented, Han expand and assimilate the surrounding region. In this context, one can be Han by adopting the culture. Chinese dialects/languages are of the same linguistic family.

That is Singapore's right.

How is it a threat?

Singapore has never been a base for US navy. Singapore base only allows them to replenish their supply here (never armaments) for their support of the SCS and pacific free navigation

I suppose China warships will also be welcome here if they chose to call on us, just like the Russian warships or and those of many other countries that came before.
