American friendship is good. Chinese friendship is even better. Do not make Sgp choose because Sgp wants to profit from the friendships with both countries and not be subordinated to the national interest of either countries. The US should know that it is not welcome in Singapore if it stirs up trouble in East Asia.
Donaldson has articulated the extant position very well, kudos to him. As the other panelist says institutionalization of the relationship is key in the future.
The USA America calls it "Liberation" instead of "Invasion". That was what US call it in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia and the list goes on... Why the double standard? Confused... Please enlighten. Genuine question... Instances of the United States "liberated" or overthrowing, or attempting to overthrow, a foreign government since the Second World War.

Trump has shown himself to be very capable of lying. In s'pore, opposition parties and their followers have been issued numerous pofmas for spreading lies. 😂😂
Somebody obviously has no comprehension and listening skills TLDR: Singapore trade depends on free trade agreemens, trump wants to tax all foreign goods - most likely leading to less trade , so lower shipping activity means less profit for singapore as a trading hub I can explain it but I cant help you understand it
Even Ng Eng Han Singapore Defence Minister said in Aspen security talks..that US leadership in the world is justified on trade....whole of East Asia maybe with exception of Australia ...zero country shares value with US if there's no trade whole of East Asia will go with the largest trading country around and you know who that is.
There is a chinese saying "Near neighbours is better than far relatives" Do consider our geographic location, China influence is everywhere. hence it is better to cosy up to motherland 😉

Why is freedom of navigation an issue. No one ever stopped anyone from navigating freely over there as far as I know.,
We will be on our own. As usual
If america wants trade, then welcome to ASEAN. If you are looking to stir up trouble, then GTFO!

Under Trump no country can rule out anything. Businesswise he is very smart!
Pragmatism is the way.
Singapore should sort out their chicken supply before playing with America and China.
US, US, US ..Singapore will nvr follow BRICS..
Up-to-date, I have not heard any issue between China and Brunei over their problem over Siuth China Sea, so are you repeating this point??
Why not getting new generation upcoming more Educated..???
What about Amy, the Creator who is still waiting for the B&W's saga MNTR to dare n challenge her with the Pofma or defamation suit.
Close relationship with Korea, United States n Asean 😂❤ Love Singapore!😂
Even Ng Eng Han Singapore Defence Minister said in Aspen security talks..that US leadership in the world is justified on trade....whole of East Asia maybe with exception of Australia ...zero country shares value with US if there's no trade whole of East Asia will go with the largest trading country around and you know who that is.
Trump never gave a damn when he was president before.
China dont like trump, SG better becareful who you side with😂
US, US, US.. China out
A game of balance is to be preferred. No one has a crystal ball. Why rule out either? Singaporeans are too smart to do that!
There is a chinese saying "Near neighbours is better than far relatives" Do consider our geographic location, China influence is everywhere. hence it is better to cosy up to motherland 😉
@@niu745 "Motherland"? See, that's why no one feels comfortable siding with China
We should not side with anyone....
The insane and we the logical !
