    We are now seeing in real-time seen how stupidity and actual fascism spearheaded by an incompetent can wreck a country’s softpower and global standing. Singapore gov did the right thing, and even their paranoia for survival is justified. The world is more fragile and volatile than anyone ever truly realises.

    There are problems though like the fact that Singapore is uh how do I say it literally nothing without other countries like other countries can sustain themselves while Singapore cannot which is ok considering their size but uhh

    Lee Kuan Yew (Prime Minister, 1959–1990), in a 1969 speech to the Singapore International Chamber of Commerce:
    “But for the wisdom and foresight of the Englishman with whose name the history of modern Singapore will always be associated, your Chamber, you and I, all of us would not be here today.”

    To simply say they were under British rule is one of the biggest understatements in the history of youtube. When Brtain negotiated control, it was a small fishing village of 1000 malays. Thats it. Britain created Singapore from nothing, not simply ruled it.

      Yep
      Britain, even if they were brutal.
      The British are extremely smart and ambitious people
      They have created so many great societies, systems and inventions and spread them around the world

    Singapore is one the biggest gambles in world history but in the end it was because of that gamble that it has came this far and became a role model.

    3:10 it wasnt just ‘political’ it was racial, Malaysia Federation to this day is an apartheid state just like Israel.

    Where only “Malays” can govern the state, while using Chinese, Indonesian, Indian, and Bangladeshi labor in the nation. Just like Israel.

    The country will prosper so long as the government and its citizens have the same goal and the same drive. And prosper we did.
    Majulah.

    Singapore’s success is undeniable, but how much of it can actually be replicated without its unique size, geography, and political system?

    Is this a universal model or an exception?
