In the late 80s, when the succession process was heating up, LKY sent out a questionnaire asking his 'candidates' why they went into government. All replied that the high salary was the attractive part except one. This thin bespectacled young man said that the reason he is in politics is because SG is his home and this is where his future lies. Who is this thin bespectacled young man? You are listening to him. All the above are not my words. They are LKY's words. It does say a lot about the quality of the PAP political elite.
1st time to hera this. very interesting and inspired
Mr Yeo should school Singapore MSM like Channel News Asia and The Straits Times in the geopolitics of the emerging multipolar world!
Both the Straits Times and CNA are actually foot soldiers of the American empire, even if they don't quite realise it. They are brainwashed.
I agree. He is Singaporean, after all.
well, if he can pay their salaries.
That will not work. The CNA is a CIA network
Japan and the Philippines are cornerstones of the strategy to keep Asia poor and divided. This policy is articulated in the top-secret U.S. Foreign Policy written 76 years ago.
February 24, 1948, Declassified U.S. Foreign Policy:
Furthermore, we have about 50% of the world’s wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. ... that Japan and the Philippines will be found to be the corner-stones of such a Pacific security system and that if we can contrive to retain effective control over these areas there can be no serious threat to our security from the East within our time.
Taiwan was added to the Pacific security system after Chiang's army retreated to the island of Taiwan in 1949. South Korea was added after the Korean War in 1953. The attempt with Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia was abandoned in 1975. The 1989 attempt in China failed. The 2019-2020 attempt in Hong Kong also failed.
Thanks to share these info.
The question should be: why did they picked Japan and Philippines? They must have studied the characteristics of these people; hence these 2 societies will be just the launching boards for any counter offensive against the US. Obviously the Filipinos loved what the Japanese did to them during WW2 and likewise the Japanese loved what US did to them during the same war! Have a nice day!
Marcos Junior's wealth of several billion dollars are in US. These wealth were brought in to the US by his late father. Heard that US threatened to freeze his assets and wealth if he doesn't cooperate to provoke China. Apparently, the Filipinos doesn't know about it.
@@PahatRoutThis was written when Philippine was still a US client state; later strengthen by Marcos.
Japan got hit by 2 nukes yet sucking up to USA. Philippines had a revolution to overthrow Marcos, now voted that corrupt family back to relive the national disaster? Both are now colonies of USA?
Looks like the US decided to play the Taiwan card after repeated failures in coercing china in recent months. The fact the US dictates how Taiwanese candidates should behave should tell you about Taiwan's "democracy". My understanding is that DPP candidates are also pre-screened by the US.
lol the taiwanese think their hair is blonder than blonde, their eyes bluer than blue, their skin whiter than white. in other words, the pathetic taiwanese suffer from a huge inferiority complex. let the pathetic stupid taiwanese be Ukraine 2 if that's what they can't wait to be.
deep in the NED pocket long time ago
The Chinese just completed the military deployment exercise of surrounding Taiwan. From this Taiwanese analyst, the Americans are trying their luck with the Chinese: ruclips.net/video/eO0UM9sro4c/видео.htmlsi=1CFLxrv89DtBoJrJ
Have been playing Taiwan for years.
@@raininthesouth I think you under estimate China's resolve and the fact that only the US has the power to project power around the world. Japan, South Korea, and the Philippines are bit players offering only token military support.
And....obviously you falsify history. Sold out to the Manchus? Like China lost to the Manchu, the same goes for the release of Taiwan to Japan because it lost to Japan. It was a weak Chinese military that created these conditions, that no longer is the case.
You perceive that China thinks invasion of Taiwan is a cakewalk is obviously naive. That saying: never under estimate your enemy applies to your comments. The world recognizes one China and Taiwan is a a part of China. The PRC is recognized by the world as the one China. That is the reality of today.
The US is using Taiwan, as it has used others, like Ukraine, to further its own interests, not because of democracy. The US allies itself with dictatorships when those dictators are in America's interest. American democracy is a faux mask that is currently in the process of decline.
Your thinking that there is an alliance backing Taiwan is a false narrative, the same narrative that Ukraine thought that NATO nations would back Ukraine against Russia. Ukraine was used by the US to weaken Russia, hoping to divide Russia into smaller pieces to take over Russia's mineral and energy wealth. The same applies to Taiwan. If Taiwan can weaken China, the US plan is to carve up China in a similar plan for the imperialists to rule the world. Unfortunately you play into that plan.
Playing guitar while Ukraine and Gaza is burning
Playing guitar is harmless but they are throwing firewood into the fires that burn in Ukraine and Gaza.
Did the Taiwanese get the message?
No, they are like the ostrichs hiding in the sand, not hearing and seeing
They admire Ukraine and Zelenski instead.
can' blame them... their main steam media is flooding them with false info
They still aiming for their lives to be validated by white people
US political, military, academic, & media elites are sure that war will break out bec they want it to happened or create it.😂😂😂
Very insightful everytime I listen to Mr. George Yeo. Thank you!!!🙏
my favorite talk after Mr Lee
It is good that George Yeo speaks his mind on the sensitive issues of China, America and Philippines. Just like in a game of poker-ice, he lifted up the container and exposed the dice called by the player. In this way, people are more aware of the prevailing dangers and pitfalls in cultural milieu of the nations involved in the issues of the South China Seas that the Americans, the Philippines and the Japanese are luring them in. It is about time to expose the various strategies, tactics and treacheries employed by the various vassals states of the US.
共同富裕 Common Prosperity for the world and not only the G7.
People as prepared and brilliant as Singaporean leaders LKY or George Yeo are very necessary in Latin America 🥲😞. This interview is a master class in geopolitics and economics. Greetings.
He can be a good president
Brilliance as usual from Mr George Yeo
Singgies sacked him. Don't u remember
@@timloo6191 He wasn't sacked. He has been a brilliant foreign minister for Singapore. Who are you?
@@timloo6191you are nothin but a troll
@@timloo6191 you talking nonsense!
Comprehensive responses by George Yeo. Shows his good understanding of global political and economic dynamics. From the questions directed by Raza, he appears more journalistic, interested inly in politics than asset management. If Asia is not good for investment, what is he doing in Singapore?
Because George Yeo is the expert on geopolitics?
@@ssss8162 , You think you are better than him?
❤
George Yeo is a çlean and intelligent man.Singapore is proud to have him.

I can see so much of LKY's mannerism and etiquette in George Yeo
Nah, George style is so different, but both are pragmatic.
@@中華傲訣 It's actually very similar. But of course, LKY is his own. George worked under LKY for a long time, I would be surprised if he didn't picked up any.
That's called learning from a role model.
@@Ally-p5b9u And what a role model LKY was
So you think he shd be the 3G PM instead of LHL
He is 1000% right
On ASEAN, Philippines is reverting back to U.S. client state to fight China, how? It is the odd one out in ASEAN.
The Marcos family is ordered by US court to return $531M to it's victims. Marcos Jr has to obey the US to avoid the US enforcing it's ruling.
Wise words!
Chance of the Americans would listen?
Zero! 😂
The speaker is too "Chinky". Ergo, chances U.S. will listen has automatically dropped to zero.
Problem with the US is that they are too arrogant and full of themselves
Zion-ist is not Americans. Just Warmongers
Best of the best, Mr. Yeo 👍
Would disagree on statement of Asean is being united. Philippines have territorial claim against China near the SCS and actually this is peanut. Getting on board with US to provoke China. But the other key issues was Sabah. Philippines is still claiming Sabah which voted to join Malaysia decades ago and Philippines refused to accept this referendum organised by Britain during the formation of Malaysia to include Sabah, Sarawak and Brunei. Of course Brunei chose to declare independence and not joining Malaysia. Philippines is a weak link in Asean bonding. Today is the tiny island at SCS, tmw it could be Sabah.
Have you seen China’s 2024a military exercise surrounding Taiwan? Philippines' answer: It will not interfere in China's internal affairs. Let's quarrel ( without war ), lol
Well said. The Philippines is ASEAN’s potential Black Swan by allowing itself to be a pawn in the geopolitical game between the US and China.
I'd like to know on what grounds Mr Yeo thinks the Philies have a legit territorial dispute with China. All records I know of clearly show the Spratleys & Scarboro etc have been in China's domain, notwithstanding WW2.
Much like claims of ETIM that Xinjiang belongs to the Uyghurs.
@@spidermann1256 Old records dating back to 16th century actually suggest both China and Vietnam have control of Spratley and Paracel islands. The issue is if control and claim are unbroken and for how long. In the the last century, France (having colonised Vietnam) and Japan had control for a few years during which China maintained it's claim. The Philippines started it's claim only in the late 70's. Have a laugh. Neither Spain nor the US (which used to own the Philippines) claim those islands so Ph does not inherit those islands. Vietnam and China have the most credible claims over these islands and waters around them. But now Ph have actual control over 5 islands. As opposed to Western media's portrayal, China is extremely moderate in it's behavior towards Ph, a country that in it's view have stolen it's territories. It is Ph, instigated by the US, who is provoking China with staged confrontations with western journalists onboard their vessels to produce their anti-China articles.
@@wayangpok The Marcos crime family is ordered by US court to return US$ 531M to it's victims. As long as Marcos Jr is obedient the US will not enforce its rulings. That's why he wants to be President. For his own personal interests. It's astounding that, after barking loudly in his master's presence in the Shangri-La Dialouge, Marcos Jr is exalted by ignorant pinoys as standing up for the Filipino people against the evil China, while Duterte is now maligned as China's lapdog for not confronting China in the SCS. Duterte's term: fishing in the disputed waters without harassment, billions in investments. Marcos's Jr's term: no fishing in disputed waters as well as near the new US bases, not getting back $531M from the Marcos family. Witness the power of mainstream media.
Over capacity of mili_tary bases.
They got 3 new ones near Taiwan.
Oh come on!.... Lawrence Wong plays acoustics, classical guitars, Blinken plays an electric one to (TRASH) metal
What a great talk. He knows so much and is on point with every topic...

Indeed, Singapore society needs to help one another. always remember you may have the most luxurious house, the most beautiful tower, the best built swimming pool hall Suana, if the ground you’re building, your car, it’s on, is shaky, weak soft, whatever I on top of the ground will just crumble!
He explains things so simply and easy to understand. It’s fascinating to hear about insight.
Wong... A guitar player..
Please don't compare with Blinken, Or the commonality will become ominous. 😁😁😁
He deserves a standing ovation
Very good
100% tax on EV is NOTHING! Totally feasible . Singapore has a COE or tax required to own a car for 10 years. And this amount can fluctuate between $75k sgd to $150k sgd. It can also be lower or higher than this range. So if a new car is $70k base price, if the COE today is $100k, I need to pay $170k just to own the car for 10 short years. After 10 years you buy the COE again! So this example already shows more than 100% taxation
Not Walter Reed but Walter Wriston who was succeeded by John Reed, who served as a management trainee at First National City Bank (FNCB) in Kuala Lumpur.
usa is going through a sputnik moment. us intellectuals acted rationally when it first happened with favorable results. question is, are the current intellectuals there able to repeat the same results
Excellent 🇸🇬 ♥️✌️🙏👍💪🌟🌞🪙🥇😊😅
un performing UOB interviewer, save by George
Lawrence Wong plays guitar in his spare time in his personal capacity. Blinken plays the guitar while Ukraine is burning. How does playing the guitar support Ukraine?
George said: civilization/礼 in euro, china, asean. In the comment, I use polite, empathy, and respect...' Why not eat minced meat?'
1 minute in and I'm already scratching my head. The host talks about a peace dividend. I guess he discounts any war or violence not happening on American shores.
He's based and the US "aristocratic" class is cooked.
ASEAN 💪💪💪💪💪
🤣
Asean= India=Africa
Chess game! Know the difference between the western chess game versus Chinese chess game. Which game of strategy is superior. Keep the two separate but find opportunity to co-operate.

Thank you for the great video and insights @georgeyeo... How does china avoid going the route of Japan in the late 80s/90s
The strategy of tariff on China''s EV to protect their own automotive industry has the effect of 闭门造车 😅😂
George Yeo said that Singapore has "learned its lesson". He is referring to 2016 HK SAF dispute right?
The US need a rude awakening. Demanding Asean countries to choose. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
❤❤❤❤❤❤
✌✌✌
try to read between the lines, its a public forum so he can't speak his mind..
Very few Singaporeans can really speak their minds.
I (and Aljunied GRC) can’t recall George Yeo being so eloquent until he was voted out. Back then, many Singaporeans couldn’t appreciate comments that he was future PM material.
Sad! People then only chose for their own needs n could not see beyond self, me and I needs!! Hope History do not repeat
One key flaw in George Yeo's argument is its ok for China to build walls but not ok for US to build walls

Blinken played the wrong song in Kiev. He should start with the Fish Cheer for Ukrainians and then Ohio for the protests supporting Gaza. These two songs will reflect what’s happening today.
George Yeo is wrong in that there is a substantial number of Filipinos who are anti-American, especially in the Northern & Central rural areas, where the Huks are still active, and in the South where the Islamists are still active, and in the Labor movement, where the US is perceived as always siding with the elitist establishment.
how is he wrong? everything you described leads to the word "substantial"
He did mention..in a perfect description of filipinos..." when the filipinoes protest for US GI to go home..they also sing...and bring me with you back to America "...😊
He didn’t explain why playing a guitar is an underground bar in Ukraine is very strange … bunch of word salad without any sauce.
Does that really need explaining
I would consider Singapore is friendly towards China. The fact of the matter is the majority of Singaporeans are Chinese and those who are in power are also Chinese !!! ???
In economic view, yes. But from security view, no.
FYI, when i went to China conducting company business, was confronted by certain business individuals during dinner with confrontation questions like why Spore Govt is so pro US. Chinese people is up todate on international geopolitics. Do not take for granted just because Spore is Chinese majority.
More ethical Chinese in Taiwan than in Singapore
lmfao.
As a Singaporean ...I see so much hypocrisy...double standards...and misinformation bullshit...by Western media..and politicians..
Can help but lean toward rational China😅😊
