I salute Professor Kishore Mahbubbani, gave an excellent answers regarding the Taiwan independence issue. We want peace in this region not war. He should be the President of Singapore. Or, chief political adviser to UN.
@ from the outside Ever tried looking into the mirror and said the exact same thing u wrote - better to remain silent and be a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubts?
You are speaking from fear? That may not be true. I personally feel down the years, Taiwan will unite with China without a bullet being fired- similar to what happened with Hong Kong
@@ednan9 No, I don't even live in Taiwan anymore, there is nothing for me to be afraid of. What I want to say is, the hypocritical west will do what ever they can to push Taiwan into a military confrontation, and they will be laughing on the other side of the ocean and if a war actually broke out, the ones that are going to die are Taiwanese. That lady was laughable to even ask the question. But maybe in a sense she was right; who will suffer more, US or China? In a chess you don't say a pawn is losing, because a pawn is a pawn, and only the US and China are the players.
@@ericchang7326 I believe there is already a party in Taiwan that supports reunification with china- i’m 90% sure that reunification will happen peacefully- sure not everyone will be happy and there will be street protests like HK but no war
@@ericchang7326 you are right, the US hawks, the Satanic politicians and the military complex will be the most happy the see the Chinese killing each other (Taiwanese and Mainland Chinese).
I don’t think China is irrational re Taiwan, they are always calculating, it is a matter of time, China is patient, always seeking the opportune moment. They have waited a long time and will continue to wait. The longer the wait, the stronger China will be.
Prof. Kishore is professional, intelligent and know the history very deeply and that’s why he can handling answers the questions well. You can’t answer the questions without knowing the history and the people asking the questions definitely didn’t know the history. Prof. Kishore, I would love to buy you dinner if you ever come to Calgary Canada because I have learned so much of history because of your videos.
Is Taiwan lost? Currently yes, as it's separate from its motherland. But it will be found again when it returns. Nobody asks Taiwan to stop elections once it's back under Beijing control.
@@yt-qg8ui, that is part of it, the main reason is that US is hoping Taiwan could drag China into an arm race and slow China economic growth. Also, US could sell weapons to Taiwan.
They are just trying to find ways and excuses to stop or slow China's growth and, hopefully, preserve the US hegemonic influence around the world. The Anglo Saxons don't really care what happens to Taiwan or the Taiwanese people. Just look at Iraq, Libya, Syria and Afghanistan.
What a stupid question to ask! It's US vs China. Taiwan is only one of a few cards left US can play with China, even though it's risky and bad for US in terms of long-term interest. Nowadays, US does not have real politicians with grand strategy and vision anymore.
I hope this channel doesn't gravitate towards western agendas. Please remain purely Asian, connecting asian countries together for a grand United Asia!! 🌏
Taiwan belongs to China, just one of the provinces of China. Just that a civil war that put them on opposition. Kindly know what is printed on the Taiwaness passport Repubilc of China.
That silly guy said Kishore put words into his mouth. What idiotic statement! It was exactly what he had said. Nothing was put into his mouth. Lies came out of his mouth instead.
Yep, the theory and rules are just there, but US is just so young, can't help breaking them. See what kids are doing, the exactly same US is performing, it just can't help to
The Anglo sphere don't care about China or Taiwan, in fact the taiwanese is not convinced the Anglos care about Taiwan, only an idiot would think they care
With a very backwards, outdated weapons, What happened to Korea War (70 years ago) and Vietnam War (50 years ago ) ? Nowadays, US did not dare to touch North Korea and Iran, and after spending Trillions and 20 years in Afghanistan. What would you expect the out of a military confrontation of US with China ?
Kishore said "if you care for the people of Taiwan, then don't change the status quo". This is a very clear message to the West, and those who might be misled by the West, on the Taiwan issue.
Usd5.25 is abt Yuan 33 ..this is higher than UN definition of poverty of Us1.5 a day. The chinese farmers has everything : a house, free education for his kids, free medical , free water and electricity and he has afree plot of land abt 1.5 to 2 acres for cropping. Besides that he breeds chickens, ducks and pigs. So the fatmers save a lot of money and for yr info the biggest savers in the world are the chinese.
It's rather unfortunate that people here are just taking this man's words at face value without doing any research and praising him simply because he's speaking slowly "against the West". Out of the 3 parties involved, (the US, Taiwan, and the PRC) who is the *most* interested in changing the status quo? And out of those parties involved, who has been doing the *most* to try to change it?
This Singaporean Professor that I once adored and respected, very unfortunately, doesn't recognize nor believe the repression of the Uygur Muslims and the atrocities, persecution and human rights violations being committed against the Uygurs by the Chinese government and communist party... this is simply a distortion of the truth and facts of what's happening on ground in China... hence, this is sadly misinformation by the Professor aimed at misleading us away from the truth. And supposedly, the Professor will equally deny what's happening on ground in India by supporting the evil modi plus the BJP / RSS fanatics and fascists ideology that these groups perpetrate by continuing with their atrocities and persecution of the Muslim minority in India. Indeed this is very sad. I challenge by urging the Professor to visit Western China and Hindu majority ruled states in India in order to see with his own eyes on what's actually happening on ground against the Muslim minority. Thank you.
Lol you know you can go to Xinjiang and see for yourself right? It’s a tourist spot, you think Chinese are so dumb they genocide the muslims WHILE being surrounded by Muslim countries, and then invite tourists to come and see😂😂😂 btw ALL Muslim countries in the world have been invited to go and see for themselves, and literally NONE of them said any genocide or anything of that nature was happening.
This guy makes so many mistake in one sentence , China won't make a blockade of Taiwan but China needs to take control of Taiwan with a fast and swift war. The first country to help Taiwan is Japan follow by U.S. . Correct don't change the status quo problem is China is saying outright that she will takeover Taiwan by force if necessary . No American ever says they are in favor of the One China Policy. What is said is that America acknowledged the One China Policy . It's important to specify the word is acknowledged and not the word recognized.
Vietnam and Afganistan are excellent examples that US had failed miserably and both ended up picking the last Person on the roof. The world has seen it all. The US will never dare to go to war with China alone. The US has been trying to look for Allies in S.E. ASIA but got non!
US is more keen to fight China than to fight the pandemic and willingly let 850,000 victims died. Just wait for Japan to return 2 nuclear war heads to US.

I admire the patience of Professor Kishore in handling fools.
A word of advice for Kishore , it is better to remain silence and be thought a fool than to speak out and removed all doubts.
When did people from the media ever demonstrated wisdom. Zero. They just ask stupid questions just for the sake of asking questions.

One question as a Chinese, Why do the Anglos Saxons always talk about Taiwan? It has nothing to do with you.... Just stop...
Because the West has a lot of economic and security interests. Heard of Taiwan semiconductor.
I don't think they care about Taiwan other than using Taiwan to give trouble to mainland China.

Tiwan ia lost ??? Not sure why westerns thinks tiwan some how belongs to them?
typical nazi imperialist's mindset.
Taiwan is sidekick and the pawn to contain china for them.
We must prevent the war, but you interested is who will suffer the most~
China would certainly avoid any bloodshed in Taiwan. As for US, Ukraine's experience is a good guide.
I find it very strange why the westerner asked questions in a lengthy way. I want to fall asleep when they asked questions.
Probably because they think beating around the bush in english (even if thats gibberish) gives them leverage
