    In our world today we are expected to be inclusive. If we are exclusive, we invite derision from our detractors and it will ultimately depend how strong or firm our resolve is. We all have our own positions based on our unique backgrounds. Our values will be tested at every turn.

      And Kishore Mahbubani too.
      What Chan says is 1) Don't be a proxy for CHINA. 2) Don't be a proxy for the US.
      Yeo and kishore seem to become 1).
      @Diderot68 also looks like a proxy for 1)
      Somehow, utube disallowed him to reply to @Diderot68 post below. But I can edit my current post on top here. Chinese influencers somehow have control over utube? Do anyone know?
      Our government asked us to take root and be Singaporean, not PRC or proxy of PRC, We do need to fight the West on China behalf.

      He did answer the question actually. The system that he is proposing is one that does not simply propagate one opinion but rather educates Sgns to look at problems in its context, find solutions that creatively bridge conflicting sentiments, and have enough backbone to stand for what we believe in so that we do not become pawns in the hands of external forces. If you are looking for some pedagogical term to that system, there isn’t one. The closest term to describe this system is “Mediation techniques”

    The security of Singapore and the lifes of Singaporeans begin with and rely on the prudence, discerning and discriminate mindset of our ministers particularly the prime minister! Consoling to note that we have ONE minister to begin with 😊, and we prey that there is no likes of zelensky or nuland in the cabinets! Singaporeans are willing to fight and die for Singapore, but not fight and die for US and be sent to watery graves or be cannon folders! US has fallen, UK has fallen, Germany has fallen, France has fallen; Ukraine has perished! pAp can fall!
    No need to make Singapore great again; Singapore already great with prime minister uncanny rise from his grave 😮when singapore under existential threat!

    Yes, it is of strategic interest for Singapore to align itself to US interest but Singapore seems to be alienating itself when it keeps supporting US foreign policy instead of playing a neutral position. Yes, there is a maritime interest to defend but again on the opposite spectrum, Singapore is increasingly standing on the wrong side of world politics by supporting US action against Houthis who is the only external defender of Palestinian's efforts for self determination by blocking Israel maritime trade rather than international maritime trade as a whole.
    Surely, Singapore can see the difference between targeted sanction and war of independence versus international terrorism.
