In Saudi Arabia, when a foreigner had an accident, the Saudis would say the accident would not have happened if the foreigner was not there. In the South China Sea, the white men sailed their warships, not commercial ships, and claimed they were there for peace. What would they say if China or Russia were to sail their warships in their neighbourhood, around Hawaii or the Carribeans or in the English Channel?
Warship for peace? clearly show how hypocrite the white men are !
Bravo to Ambassador Cui's fair minded input to the discussion.
He is a bully making threats
@@ravindra7791 Oh yeah, and who's being accused of trying to kill other indians in Canada or USA ?
@@bobmorane4926so this is all you have? Spitefulness? Grow up and accept facts.
Ambassar Cui you don't practice the words you use
@@atulchandra7384 Start by stopping to rape female tourists to India and Indian women , treat Indian minorities from Kashmir, Punjab and Manipur like human beings . Stop to treat your lower casts like subhumans. We know what the Indians are all about, be assured of that !!!
It’s heart wrenching to watch people who chose not to walk in truth and light
I’m glad the 2 representatives from SEA (Singapore and Indonesia) are able to be truly objective. Good points from both.
Bravo, Ambassador Djalal, thankyou for the statistics, thankyou for sharing your personal experience on Washington’s China bashing mindset, but also how you/Indonesia took the leap and worked on the relationship with China. 🎉
Amb Cui Tiankai ‘sbrilliance & humor blew the others away.. 😊🎉
Really, hahahha
😒
He certainly put the broken-record Indian man in his place for sure
When we talk about Geopolitical topics, we need to well understand who start conflict and who is trying to clam down clash
Starter always like to find fault with others because they know they started conflict and need to shift the misfortune onto others
Yes please be fair and truthful China is being painted in unfair situation by these media spreading nonsense

China's star in Singapore.
Thank you for supporting Singapore.

Thank you China.

I personally got a feeling that the present uncontrolled net media is doing bad to us. The commentaries here seem exceptional whilst elsewhere it creates animosity rather than mutual understanding.
@lumo 5691: Takeo Mori at times sounds like he is speaking on behalf of the USA and is putting out nothing short of obsequious, apple polishing narratives about Uncle Sam. His apprehension in uttering anything negative about USA is palpable and laughable.
He claims that he is disappointed that many countries remain neutral on Russia ‘s invasion of Ukraine.
India, the world’s largest democracy is one of the countries that has remained neutral and it’s hardly publicized in western media. At the least, unlike Japan and many European countries, India has the guts to act in its own interest.
Hard to feel sovereign when US military is on your soil. It is like having someone holding a broom stick half way shove up your hole.
Well said, Bravo, Ambassador Cui
Until todate, most of the predictions by foreign so-called experts on China didn't come true.
With the advent if the internet, we now know that the so called experts aren't worth the paper their names are written on. They are simply well paid orators and most are sold out stenographers of certain political regime.
Japanese guy represented the U.S.
Japan has no sovereignty unlike Indonesia. It is an America vassal.
They play second fiddle only.
He's just a lap-monkey realy
It’s not an independent country.
Any country that hosts US military bases might as well be part of the US.
Glad that sir Dino Pati Djalal is here. He explained the dynamic of the region well.
Can't believe only Indonesia, Singapore and China actively try to seek friends regardless of the bloc.
India too
@@kshitijshekhar1144 No. India is taking sides with U.S.
Honestly, the Chinese guy outsmarted everyone with his very sincere and convincing talk! Hands down! LOL!!
Spot on! 👏👏
He said the covid cooperation fell because of political difficulty, but in fact it's the Chinese who did not admit that it came from Wuhan lab. And did not share genome sequencing early.
@@Manish_Kumar_Singhyou are actually wrong. They shared the genome quiet early. In fact, from the recent news, they uploaded the genome even before the pandemic started there into the shared database.
Exactly! I felt the Chinese guy was head and shoulders above the others in terms of breath and depth and elegance. Indonesia was great as well.
Japan is in the same pants as the US. They represents the US interest.
Japanese got no pants, they uses US soiled pants 😂😂
Asia Society...should debate & discuss - 'American nose in Asia' - A Millennium of killing & destroying dangerously !!!
The US thinks it should be able to project its power in the South China Sea and also poke China in the eye about Taiwan. It sees itself as a hegemon whose role is to hold back competitors.
How about we start a "america society" and organize a bunch of Asian speakers host it in Asia and talk about all the atrocities america inflicted on world regions?
There are already think tanks that focus on the U.S.
Great idea. And have a Chinese navy pay a return visit by patrolling California coasts and the Gulf of Mexico to help the US with its freedom of navigation.
I’m sure Xi Dada will fund it but instead he chooses to spend it on Confucius institutes.
Prefer to listen Prof Kishore than old dog from that ocean 😊 like the question of geopolitical Russia US conflicts
48:26 So much courage to point out that "China Bashing is the norm". Bravo! I would suggest changing "Bashing" to "Bullying", but that would be too..... uhhhh..... "Wolf Warrior"?
I think it’s really necessary for experts to be non bias and be objective when making comments. Like journalists the credibilities of experts are seemingly falling, is this the outcome of social values decaying away by political agendas? I wonder how will we as a global community solved the problems in our world when we are unable to be truthful and accountable. Thankfully but saddened that there are very small handful of genuine people.
Experts can be had for the right amount 😂of
Greeting from TadeTade Blend, regards by, Vince Kong YL, Gratitude for enlightening perspective and thank you for the sharing. ❤
The omission of India and it's concerns in the last few comments by the Chinese ex ambassador says volumes ast to where the relationship of china India is going.
Ruddy boy restrained himself from being a beligerant US stenographer this time and stopped spurting out a few chinese words as he often does to display his minuscule knowledge of things chinese amongst what he realises a very knowledgeable ethnic chinese singaporeans. Its good that he kept his mouth shut and listen to orhers for a change. Oh, how regreshing!
It’s his white masters staged this show and tried to stir up controversy 😂
Did ASP gave a creaking chair to Ambassador Cui? The chair made so much creaking noise to distract
The Japanese representative is so pessimistic and lost.
It is the Japanese way.
Since they lost the war they have been neutered 😜
Bravo Dino!!!!
Japan simply needs another dose of mushrooms from its master to stay sober.
😂
😂😂😂
Add another shot of saki will be marvelous 🤣🤣
At least Japan & Indian reps don't mince words about China!
India and Japan were the most on point ☝️
Asia society meeting in washington??? Is this serious?
US version of Asia + western propaganda 🤣🤣
Who funds asia society? For what purpose? This is not a drinking club.
founder is kevin rudd, former aussie PM and now their ambassador to washington. most aussie labor politicians consider themselves part of asia and oceania.
@@fredericksiong8240Kevin rudd fluent in putonghua and an objective sinologist.
Of course. the South China Sea is American territory.
Asia spotlight, and these people are talking about China, China.. why there is no spotlight on the middle east? Where people are being k illed?
Asia is a continent. The meeting is really about East Asia.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
right, right, asia
It is rather odd that the Japan's representative plaides for military alliance and strengh with the US, and then speak about Hiroshima as if that city and its population were located somewhere in the glob, not in Japan. He then moved to Ukraine to mimic his uncle Sam, who, only about 8 decads ago, has droped 2 nuke bombs on his people. At the beginning of his speach, he wants his Uncle Sam to establish the balance of military power in the region with China. He must be feeling threatened by the fact that China may summon Japan to be present in its Court to respond to its criminal accusations.
What happened to Ambassador Cui?
He retired. He needs to retire to make space for the younger generation of diplomats to grow.
Asia Society created by Anglo American to manage Asian affairs. It's almost a USAGM
I had a chuckle hearing all this talk about cant we have a little regional project… as long as nato allies are not able to speak truth to the US and behave like vassals of the US theb tensions will continue. You have to wonder and be stunned why would a country like australia thousands of miles away be beating drums of war wanting to fight china its largest trading partner? All sense is gone out the window in an effort to please the US.
❤Kevin Rudd!
If theres anything i know how to do its helping you guys
Chinese help a big deal to bring south east asia up with them.
USA help a big deal to bring China up.
What is one supposed to say about Russia and China when representing a client state of the USA at an event run by a client state of the US? ? LOL!!!
The only exception is ambassador cui. It a pity that a whole bunch of people with selective hearing continue to choose the hear without actually listening and taking in the facts and reality
听来听去,催大使还是最有水平!
Funny how the panel members all spoke good grammatically correct English except for the sole English speaker, Kevin Rudd!
The Philippines is not so significant enough, despite the recent events, to be included as one of the panel.
Filipinos should reflect that.
Tried very hard, but
still don't understand what Raja was trying to say...
He's holding grudges instead of resolving differences
We want peace, however, we will achieve unification one way or the other... "nice"
JP doesn't have the gut neither ablity to repell US military bases on its own soil. Why it considers it could decide how things should be run in Gaza? 😂
Mohan complains why China is not engaging with India. Yet he says the border disputes must first be resolved before further engagement with China when China asks for more engagement! That's a non-starter by only saying you are right and the other is wrong!
Prata culture
India is very distrustful of China considering earlier defeat and snatching of its territories in aksai chin in a previous attack by China..I think the root cause is the way in thus attack by China, India stupidly believed China, faced humiliating defeat and therefore once bitten twice shy..India will never make a mistake of trusting China ever again..at best the relations can be stable..India is also not a fool to side with US against China..While India's fear/distrust of China therefore has a root cause..why is Beijing wary or distrustful of India..you have bad intentions of taking current Indian territory and you are distrustful of India? If China is able to reassure India that it will respect current boundaries and not asserting it new found super powers, it will see a different Indian side..it is that simple.remember while China faced humiliations from white men, India faced Islmic invasion, occupation and then became a British colony...China doesn't know H of humiliation that India underwent through this..It doesn't want to suffer any additional humiliations now from a neighbour..such understanding on China's part will go a long way..but I dont think China has such understanding in it for its neighbours..so the status quo will remain...in dealing with India remember India has no history of attacking others territories (other than East Pakistan conversion to Bangladesh where India was forced to interfere because of millions of illegal immigrants and lack of global help to its call for help, then also it didn't grab any of land claiming pre British era it was part of India)
Totally agree
Ambassador Cui must be kidding when he said “he’s speaking in his own personal capacity” since he’s retired
Stop smoking whatever you are smoking.
He will disappear forever if he talks anything wrong
Definitely after you. Lol
Have 😊@@waynegore5291
China is pleading for goodwill and cooperation from the US but not seeking this with the rest of the world
Thats because US holds the no #1 power which means it has more world influence and its sells more to the US and US sells more to China. It just means USA is its no. #1 priority right now. I dont think its ignoring the smaller countries.😊
Because the rest just follow what the US say like dogs.
It's a tactical ploy by the Chinese
@@ravindra7791...i dont think so
correct. only the US is allowed to sell weapons to taiwan without serious consequncies. China has lower tolerance for anybody else to harm its national interests. its unfair.
Ff to 13:20 if you want to skip Kevin Ruddy letting off esteem😅
Get them cloth chairs next time. The noise is so annoying.
Potus Hatrris now.
It’s very obvious here - Nothing change! Clearly, Indonesia proactively wanted progress, stability and growth. Typical Japanese basking (actually “barking”) “happily” under the wings of Uaaassss west, with India care 💩 about improving ties other than their own borders while sidekicking China. Retired ambassador Cui showed elegance in placing the firm points of Chinese’ views about other countries that has not changed even from the beginning of Chinese history.
Peace is the only option for our survival.... stop the warmongers
Ability to master a certain foreign language also means the unique ability to a Trojan horse. Rudd, no??
印度人真有意思,非要说争议地区是自己的。
The problem is not with China, but the current CCP regime, bring back Deng Xiaoping 😊
u don’t really want deng back. All u want is the weak and silent china.
if we are cowards, we will shy away from what any evil country will do to others.
How disappointing the comments made by the Japanise rappresentative. Th invasion of Russia was not "unprovoked" . Has been provocked by Europe and USA.
no way
As I see it, INDIA IS SIMPLY JEALOUS OF CHINA'S PROGRESS. And it is getting personal.
😂😂😂
“Jealous” of Wuhan virus 🤣
@skywlkinson2128 India Virus is more lethal
😒💀
@@skywlkinson2128 because India not Asia 😅😅
sadly, there is no Filipino in the panel.
Did i hit a nerve to suggest that China need to keep up the pressure on the North Himalayan LAC to remind Indian forces not to get involved with anti Chinese activities in the Pacific around Taiwan Vietnam Philippines South China Sea and the Quad? My two earlier posts on this point got deleted
India had no intention of getting involved in East Asia. Even it's QUAD involvement got activated after China's misadventures in the Himalayas.
All of this anti Chinese activity started happening after China and India border clash..... Neither India wants war with China nor wants to engage in anti chinese activities..... China pushed India to do so..... Just like Chinese people Indians are also nationalist
United States mind her own business, the Southern Asia Sea will no conflict.
ambassador chan better be a guest speaker
only indonesia and singapore were objectives. others were just propaganda putting forward their interests. it's weird for japan to mostly talk about russia, they dont seem to have courage to challenge china directly like india.
yeet .1%
The Indian and Japanese are opportunists trying to distort the topic
Said the Chinese….😅
They brought up the clearest points regarding sovereign territorial rights.
You will be happy if they agree with china 😂 but that won’t happen
China 🇨🇳 is a sad country with sad people and a sad future.
@6:16 How can Beijing drive the temperature down when they are claiming an entire ocean, just because it's named South "China" Sea, you don't see India claiming the entire Indian ocean, do you?. As per UNCLOS which China is a signatory of. The 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea gives nations an “exclusive economic zone,” or “EEZ” is an area of the ocean, generally extending 200 nautical miles (230 miles) beyond a nation's territorial sea, within which a coastal nation has jurisdiction over both living and nonliving resources which China is clearly violating,
Check again about your source of information! If South China Sea is like what you said, then people of Japan and Korea will be long gone. You are obviously biased and obedient to your masters of propaganda.
Your claim is wrong, it is Chinese territory no just because it is called SCS. Chinese travels and controlled the islands in SCS for hundreds of years.
That sounds like the view of the west and anti China hate because no one trust what ever comes out there mouth
Multiple prongs buckling down to get together is nothing but pretension.egoism can never coexist and tolerate other.
🇹🇼 一一一
We need humanists, lesser nationalists and hopefully no geopolitical enthusiasts
Why nobody from China is present?
cui is from China
How ignorant can you be? Look before you ask.
1:08:20- Answer to the lady from Singapore(?) as to the 'next pandemic'; that will be decided in Beijing by CCP- thank your stars that the last one was prematurely released, the next one won't be.😮
Ask the US who created the Covid virus 😜
This forum encourages to surrender their countries to China for the sake of China's modernization.
Sorry
The forum seems to tell everybody else to just let China keep what their wrong doing.
You seems to be watching a different discussion 🙄
5 th grade can figure it out
Ambassador Cui talks with forked tongue.
It is so obvious that India just wanted her way, there is no need to "mend" the fence. Each should go its way. Such exchange doesn't achieve much as far as China-India relation is concerned.
The Japanese speaker sounds like he’s been living under a rock for the past year, conveniently forgets to mention Gaza when he talks about Ukraine. And supporting Ukraine is your opinion sir, don’t be disappointed when some may have their own opinions as well.
Don't know why he always presents himself as a China expert just because he speaks a bit of Chinese.
Decide to skip this out of …………………
Philippines and China must sit and talk and solve the South China Sea issues without having to bring in the USA. China must stop water cannon Philippines small supply vessels. Do not look good for China, big powerful ships attacking small no firepower philippine vessel. Asean countries do note such bullying. They will build up their military so as not to be bullied. China must act benevolent as a big power. Learn all the wrong ways the Western powers had acted historically and act differently. Unfortunately gunboat diplomacy and occupying and building just because you can, only reinforced China is no different from the West. Like this China lose more friends than actually it needs to. What is China doing? We have higher expectations from a 5000 yr civilization.
agree. but such dialogue should be initiated by china as the bigger party esp since it's china who will gain advantage in the negotiation as the stronger party. interestingly it seems like there are 2 leaderships in china: xi jin ping and on-the-ground/on-water PLA leaderhip. XJP talks about nice things all the time, but PLA behaves differently. this gives wrong message to other countries. at the end of the day, this is a battle of claims, that china and PH claim the same thing (china's claim is more ridiculous but in essence, it's still a battle of claims)...
in the olden days, a small atoll in the middle of the ocean was not claimed by anyone, now, everything has to be owned by a country...because by claiming an atoll, you get the territorial water + EEZ => you'll get the resources and your territory expands (better than invasion or colonisation in the olden days).
The issue with the Philippines was never a problem until the US got involved indirectly 🙄
Only Japanese feel dangerous in History.
Not Impressed Academic meaningless circular emptiness
China wanta to bow down before USA for trade and technology..but disruptive relationship with world lol😂
The world expects everyone to bow down to them but not China and Russia 😜
日本人的发言很小家子气
Kevin is useless 😂😂
My ears were bleeding listenign to the Chinese speaker but I had no other choice but to listen! I assume the listeners who were plysically present there felt the same!
My eyes are Bleeding from Hindus
you need to go to the doctors, it can be the brain peoblem
Akha never been in Asia multicultural multiracial multilingual societies ?
If you are illiterate, keep quiet, no body will know that you are a fool.
It would be if you are among those who are sucked into the narrative that China will engage in military invasion to unify with Taiwan. China will not fall into the silly trap, like Russia getting into war with Ukraine. I am willing to wager US$10 million that China will not give warmongering USA a war by 2027 as predicted by Army General Mark Milley.
Mori is presenting obsequious and apple polishing narratives to please Japan’s master in USA. He appears so afraid to say anything negative that puts USA in a bad light.
So sad that he is disappointed that many countries remain neutral to Russia’s Ukraine invasion. Let me remind you that India, the world’s largest democracy has not condemned Russia and it is hardly publicized in western media. India, unlike Japan and many European countries, should be proud. It has its own independent mind and dares to act in its own interests.
15:42
日本人的意思:继续和美国一起维持美国军事霸权,在此基础上享尽好处。
Waste of time to get your brainwashed
Ah kevin ..the pseudo Chinese or china expert
Nothing to support Russia.
日本的军国主义思想很顽固
Mr. Cui portrayed China as a gentle giant that has no desire to overtake the US as the global leader. Speaking is cheap, and China needs to back up its claims. Former Secretary of State Pompeo claims Washington should always "distrust and verify" when interacting with Beijing, rejecting engagement on the parameters set forth by the Communist Party.
If we look at the post-Covid world, it is China which is the trigger/cause of butterfly effect of encouraging conflict in the region. So resolve towards world peace basically with China beginning with resolution of border conflict with India.
India has border issues with pretty much every single of its neighbor, you are the problem maker
Yeah right, Get lost Hindu Bhakt
像1962年一样把你们干的满地找牙?
You must be joking! Just listen to your Indian media criticising and provoking China daily, all out of envy from it's setback to become a wannabe superpower.
@@fredericksiong8240 unlike China, Indian media can say whatever they want and that could even be coming from nationalistic nature of Asia. The primary view should be from the actions of the governments and not from the noisy loud words, even from the media.
Sad to see a lot of Asians on an American think tank that talks about Asia. Its better to have an all American speakers.
