Ha-Joon Chang is unapologetically honest and I'm here for it. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview - especially Mr Chang commentaries. Grateful I found him via a recommendation.
What a wonderful combination of speakers - Eno gave a brilliant interview in The Guardian when Trump got elected, and had some profound insights. As for Ha-Joon, well I’m biased - he was my supervisor 😊
Thank you Aljazeera for the repeat screening of this chat/interview. It's heartening to see two influential individuals who understand and care enough to present their wisdom to the world. I'm a little guy who thinks the same. (Yes, there are alternatives to the way life is lived on this world!). We're in the midst of Electioneering here (Sept. 2023) in Aotearoa New Zealand, and because people are stressed from all the stuff going wrong, globally and at home, they want change, but they haven't figured out what type of change they want, so far in the polls it looks like the right-wing are "winning" so the general public obviously love the bad stuff happening. No climate change mitigation, and policies to continue persecuting the poor. They just see the tax cut policy and nothing else. My question is - why don't the average voters understand what's wrong with National and Act? It's like the abused are voting for the abuser. Thank you for your marvellous channel, Aljazeera 💜💚🌳💚💜
Musicians like Ian Anderson, John Lennon, ELP and many other musicians, mooted for conservation of our environment and not to exploit nature and it's natural resources without being irresponsible.
Hmmm well there were some good bits in this but when I hear statements like "stealing indigenous knowledge" - what does this mean? What knowledge has been "stolen"? How did East Asia develop? By "stealing" Western knowledge? Mr Ha-Joon might like to reflect on what his youth might have been like were it not for 400 British lads holding Gloster Hill for 3 days during the Korean war. There were obvious injustices in the past but there is also enormous hypocrisy from some in the present. The Chinese love to moan about the collapse of the Qing dynasty in the 19th century and the period of "unequal treaties" but a) that itself was an empire which had stolen vast tracts of land (which it still retains) and b) they never ever believed in equality and still don't. I know for 100% certain that if East Asians had given the world the scientific and industrial revolutions they would not be apologising for it. Will Russia be paying reparations for all the land it took in the 17th and 18th centuries? Will the Arabs being reparations for all the African slaves they took? "Openly racist" - this is incredibly rude from someone who's made his home in the UK and who has seen the vast problems which mass immigration has brought.

Environmentalism and climate change catastrophism are antonymous concepts.

😂 chicken tiķka masala....
Sorry to hear Eno needs this kind of attention. There is plenty wrong with markets but nothing right about totalitarianism
ah, T word, again. So justice, better life, saving the environment are totalitarian!
