On 13 July 2022, the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy held a private luncheon at our Bukit Timah campus for our benefactors and friends who have supported us through the years. At the luncheon, guests listened to Mr George Yeo (Visiting Scholar, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy and Founding Patron, Asia Competitiveness Institute), who shared his view on key aspects about the ever-growing complexities of international relations and arising challenges that policymakers face today. With great wit and candour, he offered insights about the strategic importance of ASEAN nations to Singapore, the unique potential that Indonesia has and China’s reaction to growing US hostility. This was followed by fielding questions from guests on other world challenges such as, climate investments, economic outlook in regions and political tensions.

As an author and academic who is relatively well-read on geopolitics, I have always found scholars like Kishore Mahbubani and George Yeo most informed and extremely analytical in their presentations. I wish they are given the opportunity to speak in Western media, which is too insular and lacks diversity of global thought.

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

The success of Singapore lies on the achievement of the late Lee Kuan Yew in eradicating corruption and poverty. This is extremely important from the beginning, because once the mindset of "corruption is nothing to be shameful about" is embedded among the people. No force in the universe can save the nation. For a country to grow and prosper, the leader must set an example not to involve in any form of corruption. To lead a multiracial nation is no easy task, therefore only leaders with high integrity and credibility are qualified. Anything racial and religious must be kept away from cabinet and politics, otherwise everything will destine to fail miserably. Congratulations Singapore for being the only successful country in Southeast Asia.

I like how Mr George Yeo makes commentary on geopolitical and economic affairs without taking some sort of moral position on which country is "right". In his own words, he's simply a guy trying to make sense of what is happening in the world currently. Another unique aspect is his mixed experience in both senior government and private sector positions that allows him to produce very granular examples of a particular strategic point he makes - e.g. the sugar backdoors for Myanmar or non-public remarks Lee Kwan Yew made to Chiang Ching-kuo.

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.

@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.

I think all sides now could be looking for a way to end the fighting and I suspect if the ZNPP power station in Ukraine blows up(or starts leaking) from the surrounding heavy shelling it could lead to a truce and end with partition mentioned becuz logically with radiation fallout from ZNPP there would have to be at least 100km radius uninhabitable zone, civilians in towns and cities in the area will have to be evacuated. Chernobly plant incident several times smaller reactor resulted in a 30km radius initial exclusion zone but effects later felt as far away in Belarus.

** Taiwan issue...For China it is national security. For US it is semicon, their big tech companies lifeline. ** Both side want Taiwan for different but critical reasons and this is the problem. (For China it is not so much semicon, bec when TSMC falls under China, US will block lithography machine sales to Taiwan.)

Candid speech. ASEAN would do well with dynamic balancing between China (BRICS) and the US (G7/EU). Static balancing, while simple to execute, is too fragile to external knocks. Nimble and agile Singapore, together with Brunei, can play the role of continuous minute shifts within ASEAN, being no where yet everywhere (outside the box even).

Singapore lost one of her brightest and most knowledgeable, even-handed, mature and experienced minds with deep insight to world affairs in former Minister George Yeo in a fluke GE where opposition ward voters voted with their anti-PAP emotions and not with logic in their minds. We all lost when we lost George Yeo in political office. For me, it was a sad day and outcome to lose a leader of his calibre in this manner, for all the wrong reasons and for the sake of anti-PAP sentiment despite all the good it has generally done for our country and people. These voters were foolish in their folly. Cest la vie. He still is a heavy-weight whose views are always pertinent, tempered, insightful, and correctly and sensitively reflective of our present world. Excellent insight as always; thank you for your insight, Sir. Keep well.

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.

I hope many decision makers in Singapore will keep in mind that should the US military blockade the Strait of Malacca to starve China (a well known secret in US military planning), Singapore will not be spared. It would be in China's interest to use its navy to maintain freedom of navigation and establish basing rights with critical partners like Singapore. It would be in America's interest to destroy Singapore. Singapore must continue to punch above its weight to survive.

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.
