      Small is valuable that’s it. even if you armed yourself to your teeth. Staying neutral and friend with all your neighbour is not only important it is life and dead. Imagine if singapore have a dispute with it neighbour and the neighbor engage China the largest blue water navy of the world to cause disturbances in singapore then what will happen? $$ fly off from singapore in second. $$$ doesn’t like places with potential risk. USA is like a candle in the wind anytime it will collapse. No longer a dependable partner. In fact it is very dangerous to be closed to USA now because when a great empire is about to collapsed they will use their last breath to stay alive by forcing all it allies to either join the fight or contribute resources such as $$ to fund their last battle.

    Singapore, as an international financial center, already possesses the potential and advantages to become the world's bank, with its solid financial strength, regulatory system, and international reputation. However, to truly become the world's bank, Singapore still needs to cope with the fierce competition in the global financial market, strengthen financial innovation and talent development, enhance international competitiveness, and strengthen financial cooperation with other countries and regions. This is a process that requires long-term efforts and continuous adaptation to market changes.

    It is definitely possible that Singapore become the world's bank.

It will take a fairly long time for the rich to get used to banking in Singapore rather than in Switzerland.

      watch the channel's other video on Singapore Debt. Singapore Government has 0 net debt. The government has strict fiscal policies over the years that they can only spend what they can collect in their term of government, which means, no deficit over the years regardless which party forms the government. It is written into LAW. Parliament is always arguing about putting back what percentage of returns into the reserves, which means, save more or save less. The reserves, though no government has revealed its amount, is estimated by financial institutions to be 1.2 trillion dollars - 2 trillion dollars depend on times. To make it plain, no investors with billions of dollars would put their money in a country with massive debts and deficits because there is risk that it would be taken away by laws and guns. These rich people are not stupid. Period.
