Great talk, I was glued in. Love Kishore enlightening other Asians of the real situation, even if he himself is still naive I must say. Asians can get along very harmoniously, we absolutely can. Our relations are around as low as they'll ever be, and once we can get this white/West worship out of our mental we can have a real golden age for Asians.
@@TacticalMayo I noticed that China's understanding of the West is pretty good. Testing ICBMs, building nuclear arsenal, conflicts at sea, trade war, tech war, currency war, decoupling, building competing international order. Unavoidable and zero-sum and accurate read by the Chinese.
Prof Kishore is such a skillful diplomat, he emphasized the visionary leadership of Spore first generation leader but he avoided lauding the current leadership when asked. The subtlety helped listeners understand his position without sounding offensive
That’s totally wrong. As an established world renowned person, he has to practice such subtlety so that the current leadership has the freedom and space to rule… LKY after stepping down as MM, stop appearing publicly too, partly due to his deteriorating health condition but also respecting younger generation wish to set the direction of the country themselves….
Rudd does not know China like he thinks he does. Somewhere along the lines his extremely anti-China, and if we're being honest...racist, friends whispered nonsense in his ears and it got to him
Kishore is an Geo politics expert and a great narrator. Kudos to him, he is a gem of Singapore . Great analysis about world of diplomacy and various regions. I do agree that he goes into China matters whilst mentioning just brief one liners on India which is steadily increasing its economic size and influence
From a common man’s perspective: Unlike the US and its allies, China tends to avoid speaking negatively about others and consistently seeks peace and business through comprehensive cooperation.
I guess there are just different concepts of peace between the two. In the West, peace means managing your differences through negotiations, while in China, peace means having no differences to talk about. This naturally creates conflict because one's peacekeeping is the escalation of the other.
*China’s* GDP stood at $29 trillion in purchasing power parity (PPP) terms in 2021, representing *18.9%* of global GDP, while the *United States’* GDP was $24 trillion, accounting for *15.5%* of global GDP. *India,* at $11 trillion or *7.2%,* was the third-largest economy. But United States per capita (PPP) is approximately $76,000. China is around $21,500 and India $8,400. So China is still only 28% that of USA. Why is USA so concern about China or India overtaking it with such a huge margin? There must be something more than economy that USA is concern with, likely the unfounded fear that Chinese has overtaken them in term of science, technology and manufacturing?
Yes, America founded and sustained by violence that permeates its culture, politics, law, society. It lives on deep fear that others may do to them what they have done since the 17th century.😮
Beautiful person in deep knowledge and great comanterie about Asia and World 😢 I don't know the name of it!? A book of prophecy about the Middle East and the World 😢
Surely, this new book will be translated to Chinese Putonghua and become another of BEST SELLING foreign books inside PRChina, again be earning millions of RMB in Royalties for the Professor once more.
I can't help but feel like Mahbubani gets a bit repetitive in this one. Yes, talking to each other is important, but is that it? What are enemies supposed to be talking about when there is 0 common ground? What actions should follow the talk? I'm left with many unresolved questions about diplomacy's integration into a wider framework of policy in this. Unfortunately, he often leaves me with that feeling of not having answered the most pressing questions.
Kishore is so wrong about Alaska. China tried diplomacy for so long and it didn't work with the US. Strong words in Alaska did finally send a message to US that China is not afraid of the US and will fight back. That's how you counter a bully, not with niceties but in the only language a bully understands. China's economy is rebounding despite strong attack from the US in denying and withdrawing investments and sanctions. China took active steps to correct the real estate sector despite it's 33% contribution to GDP. It has grown other sectors such as EVs, solar, How many economies can sustain a 5% growth despite all these challenges. Don't believe the lies and misinformation of the west. It is their economies that are sick, not China.
Its a pity he couldnt continue the last question, i.e. how do politicians curb public sentiments when they see their politicians playing golf with their enemies...
Disappointingly I must say Kishore as a scholar is biased towards the market in which his book will sell well especially if translated into Chinese. He ignored India, Japan and Korea and Taiwan too
It's the only time Kishore don't have an answer when it comes to the middle east. I honestly think he has an answer but is afraid if saying the answer. The fear of ipac is the beginning of wisdom. I may be wrong but had to believe that for someone who is in geopolitics and diplomacy for over 50 years to say he has no answer or understanding the issues in the middle east!!!
Simply because Israel is the outpost of western colonialism in a region where the colonialists come from different areas of Europe with a clear mindset of taking over the land of the Palestinians.
myanmar is internal civil war between rebels and army which started since the end of british rule, long before ASEAN was even concocted. british brought a lot of south asians to myanmar which had different culture and religion since world war 2.

Speech delivered on 12 September 1965. A month after Singapore was kicked out of Malaysia. Perhaps more bravado at that time. But he delivered on his vision. Going forward, Singapore aims to build on that and be the place where East meets the West and Asia meets Asia.
He's out of date because of the rise of India and has always been promoting China. When he was in the National University of Singapore he was more balanced. Even Singapore praised President Zelensky of Ukraine when they invited him to the Shangri-La dialogue in Singapore this year. Dr. Eng Singapore's Defense Minister told Zelensky we admire you, and support you. Singapore also hosts the US Navy,; Poseidon spy plane from the US to watch over the South China Sea and is another member of the BRICS. Indonesia the largest economy in Austin is not a member of the BRICS and has asked India to build a deep water park to host its navy which blocks the entrance to the Melaka Straits with China wants. So this is the choke point. So these are blind spots in Kishore Mhabubani'ddiscussions. He also does not address the sentiment of the Indian diaspora around the world towards India. I'm Malaysian American by the way. So we see that basically that his geopolitical views are somewhat China-centric and about 20 years out of date. Indonesia has about to race tariffs of up to 100% against China's exports. So it's much more complicated and there are lots of unilateral and bilateral deals going on. So he does not seem to be quite positive about India or even other arts and countries like Vietnam and Indonesia and the Philippines are positive about India. So why is he so biased with China? He ignores the infrastructure development in India as well as the buoyant startups without any government connections. He also ignores the recent turnarounds with the Maldives and other countries in the Indian Ocean towards India. Overall there's a sense that there's a need to counterbalance China within RCN and in the Indo-Pacific. I'm not from India.
@@inzaghi1115 @inzaghi1115 Really? Perhaps a formal content analysis of his speeches and his articles and publications which will be peer-reviewed mayv settle it since he is a professor. As far ASEAN is concerned, to be on topic; not all of ASEAN countries have the same view of China. It is interesting that he is now gently switching to ASEAN where he spent over a decadeover talking about the rise of China and suddenly is now looking at ASEAN which is very diverse; not just in culture, politics, and economics but also relationships with the superpowers giants which are China, India and the United States. Why Indonesia which is the largest economy in Southeast Asia or Asian bigger than that of Singapore and Malaysia combined decides to impose tariffs and Chinese imports and invites India to build a deep water port and has military exercises with it This port is called Sabang, it is the choke point for Chinese ships coming into the streets Melaka The busiest sea lane in the world..The Indian Navy can be docked there. Finally we must also ask a question in terms of action not just speech why China keep arming Pakistan with nnuclear capability for over two decades. Why it has encircled India with the String of Pearls Strategy by arming with conventional weapons all the failed states neighbors from Sri Lanka to Myanmar to Nepal. and Bangladesh. Has he shifted his focus from China to now ASEAN b ecause of China's huge total internal debt to GDP of over 300% even reported by Beijing based Caixin Global. It's unemployment amongst graduate students are over 20%, the censorship that prevents data from coming out and the exodus of Chinese elites with over 74% fleeing with their assets; and the illegal migration of the Chinese middle class to the US from the southern border showing a 7,000% spike well organized and reported by both the South China Morning Post from Hong Kong and Singapore's Channel News Asia. You are more than welcome to go and check out all these facts. They're not assertions they actual facts and actions. Not speeches and articles. Not one of just assertions on UA-cam. In terms of actions and not speech and writing, why does China keep vetoing India for the United Nations Security Council seat which India in the late 40s before I was born deferred to China.? China has most Favored Nation Status for a long time while India was sanctioned by the Americans for starting the Non-aligned Movement. So a formal content analysis of his speeches and his articles and publications should be in independently peer-reviewed mayv settle it since he is a professor. Easier stil is to ask people who live in different ASEAN countries such as in Pew Research which conducts polls frequently and has had data coming out from ASEAN countries on their perceptions This already has been done and published. You would be surprised with my data say
The new AS president has a very gentle and kind demeanour, Kishore is always brilliant. Two great personalities on the stage. Thanks for the session!
It’s about time Asian Society presented by Asians

Prof Kishore is indeed an Asian thinker with his good insights on today's geopolitics.
Kevin Rudd never had the stones to host Kishore when he was president
Rudd does not know China like he thinks he does. Somewhere along the lines his extremely anti-China, and if we're being honest...racist, friends whispered nonsense in his ears and it got to him
because he doesn't play golf
Rudd is not on equal footing
Kishore is basically a spokesman for China... there will be nothing new..
Rudd is a mandarin speaking pro american imperialist that's why.
Always enlighted by his speech 🙇🏻♂️

China has overtaken US in terms of science, tech, and manufacturing. You have to take the collective West to compete.
Look at it 25 years hence, just as you would look 35 years back when both India and China didn't matter.
Yes, America founded and sustained by violence that permeates its culture, politics, law, society. It lives on deep fear that others may do to them what they have done since the 17th century.😮

He did not mention the conflict in Myanmar that many people have died. So, the ASEAN is not so much peaceful.
The context is inter country peace. ASEAN is a regional grouping of countries.
