- In a keynote session at the INSEAD Leadership Summit in Asia, the founder of modern Singapore, Lee Kuan Yew, revealed that during a meeting with Washington aides to presidential candidates, he was asked whether the US should regard China as a friend or foe.
His reply: "Neither at the moment." He then added that in 20 years' time, the US will be dealing with a different set of leaders.
This man, Lee Kuan Yew, is a genius mind. No wonder why his country is one of the richest in the world.
My *respects*
It’s 2021, you’re binging UA-cam at 3am. You find Lee Kuan Yew for the first time and realize how amazing he is. Then you hit the comments and someone commented 6 years ago about his passing. Rough 😢
LKY was a fantastic man that Asia had.
India should have such leaders
You hit the nail right
@@rammoorthydr2307 .
great pm.
"To be a leader of any country, you have to be a part of them; to know instinctively what will go right, what will go wrong." - LKY. still true today.
i love this - instinctively be part of the people
unfortunately he did not make sure that his successor don knew this
He "instinctively knew" Stop @ 2 is right. The rest is history.
@@franciscody9622 stop at 2 then works. but with the ageing population now, it is please go beyond 2!
Now look at my nation of Ireland, and Britain's governments.
Leading a tiny island nation but big image of good governance in the eyes of the world. All his speeches are exemplary of great statesmanship. Respect
A true human who has shown the whole world what leadership is all about.
LKY was indeed a great leader with tremendous intellect, statesmanship, vision and sense of humour.
Great respect!
I'm a Singaporean born 1964. I've so much respect for 2 person in my life. Lee Kuan Yew and Bruce Lee. They're both irreplaceable. Btw today is 23th march is Lee Kuan Yew's 6years death anniversary. Rip Sir. We missed you.
I'm just getting to know and understand this great man..
What a complex Geo Political melting pot we have entered into since his death..
Bruce Lee? Umm ok
Great leader, great visionary,leader who lead and lived by example. He tirelessly and single handedly made Singapore a model country which even big countries will be hard pressed to emulate! I was lucky to have seen, heard and felt his leadership first hand!
wow
I am not from Singapore, but this man is a truly great inspiration to me.
THE GREAT MAN TALKING
U must be lunatic.. think man.This is an Asian tyrant who stole Singapore from Malay Muslims of Msia...w help of traitor Malay Tunku..now country going downhill w no natural resources and impiety export depletion and no freedom of speech or labor unions only tyrant dictatorship of LKYs family don grandson monarchy that seemed so smart or eloquent but in reality destitution poverty and depression of the common Singaporean like Hkong and Taiwanese...
Lee Kuan Yew is one the top top leaders in Asia. China owes him a lot! His suggestion to Mr. Deng of reform and open China is THE CRITICAL one! Chinese thanks him!
Listening to Lee Kuan Yew is always an educational and entertaining experience.
A man with great interlectual ability and with great foresight.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I remember drowsing in front of the TV some years ago when Charlie Rosej began to interview Lee Kuan Yew who I knew very little about at the time. It was quite late but his intelligence woke me up and I turned on the lights and began to listen. I can't agree with all of his positions but he was an extraordinary leader and human being. His eulogy of his wife is one of the most moving expressions of love I have ever heard. He will be missed.
Knowing before things happen , that’s what knowing is about. It is wisdom, LKY is a great man for next few centuries ...
This man is a great inspiration to many economists around the world. My father constantly writes about him and interviewed him as well. One in a million for sure.
One of the wisest political leaders who ever lived.
wise? he became a ccp puppet before going to hell ! this was considered wise by idiots !
@@peterlee4458 he had nothing to do with the ccp infact the ccp you are talking about came to Singapore to learn from us in the 70s stop spreading misinformation my guy
@@peterlee4458 infact if you do a quick google search of world leaders opinions on lky you will just get praise after praise of his achievements including 3 former presidents of the united states
His intelligence, and courage to speak the truth in a disarming non hurting way, but to the point is so lovely to watch.
It is a craft. The way he answered arrogant Economist journalist is classy.
Financial Times* ;)
No wonder, Singapore is what it is today, because of this man.
Mr Lee Kuan Yew....With all respect and admiration. ." A Man for all Seasons and All Reasons "
His greatest legacy is that he set an example for China, he paved the way for China to move forward.
Every time I listen to speech nd Interview of Mr. Lee, I learn loads of new stuffs... btw whenever I listen to him, I become humble and feel like being an apprentice listening to a Master teaching...
the older I get, the more I see the logic of Mr. Lee.
The great leader of Asia, good vision,good ethics,good leader and good practice. I,m very pround of him so much.
Indeed our. Minister mentor is truly brilliant and extremely WISE. We are very fortunate that he has built our country so well,
Thank you for building Singapore into such a successful country today. You'll be sorely missed. Rest in peace Mr Lee.
Clips about him kept me up all night. 6.30am now and I just can’t get enough of his wise words.
His foresight is immerse and certainly open up my mind. Seen these clips years ago and still managed to throw up new perspectives. Man, his words are timeless.
A Tribute To Honour The Memory Of Our Founding Father Mr Lee Kuan Yew. 1923 - 23 March 2015.
Never before in the modern era of human endeavour, have so many owed so much to one man, who cared neither for gold, glory nor honour, not even self, but strived his entire life for others, devoting wholeheartedly solely to their welfare and the betterment of his budding nation, transforming it from third world to first in one monumental stride.
A feat unparalleled, a reality out of impossibility, a miracle in the eyes of many.
To say he was a man in a million holds no justice. Aptly put, he was simply from out of this world.
Rest in eternal peace Mr Lee, our hero.
Patriot.
True karma yogi🙏
Very well said
An ideal ,selfless, with a prime objective to serve ,very well his country. Wow.
With such capital intellect ,he is feast, to emulate.
All my respect 🙏🏼
Very smart people just have a uniquely charismatic way of expressing their thoughts.
One of the rare star on Earth. One of the wise one... we lost our modern day Confucius. I wish I could have met you before your passing. A true genius in world affairs and much more. Thanks for your hard work and effort to making a BETTER SINGAPORE. May you find peace and see your wife again.
U comparing him to confucius?
He’s trying to say LKY has deep WISDOM!
Opened up many new ideas that are immediately usable. No words can express my gratitude. Thank you MM.
Great man… I always come back to his words when I need inspiration.
This is just slightly over 2 years ago... i remember seeing this before and now when i see this, i still marvel at his intellectual capacity and wit. The world will miss you greatly Sir.
Still learning from LKY even though he had passed on for 4 years.
7*
@@animeworld5684 Singapore will miss him even more after this election!
He was the top in his class all the way. top student in England and top politician of our time
A great leder for Singapore. He built up his little land from the capacity of people, the best access in the world.
My mother´s grand mother was chinese Hokkien. Many of them settled their lives in Malaysia - Singapore.
Even I was grown up as a thai but like diversity of ethnic groups in Thailand. Best wishes from Stockholm - Sweden
Lee Kuan Yew, a country leader without peers. His databank of global intelligence is simply mind blowing.
I want to comment, but I cannot think of the words that would describe the greatness of LKY.
You and I are not upto his wisdom.but together we can create greatness through his wise words.
Indeed a great leader. A man who is so smart. To throw a question to Mr Lee, you have to ask an intelligent question.
so grateful to get to watch the greatest men/leaders from all over the world speak.
This man is my hero. I'm so glad we have strong people like him around today in an age where our politicians seem more and more degenerate...
I am a 17 year old American and I can say that I will cry when LKY finally departs, but I'm glad he was at least slightly in my time. He's not perfect, I don't agree with all of his ideas, but he doesn't claim to be that which he isn't, which is his monopoly in the world of politics because no other politician can say the same.
LKY departed this morning at 3.10 am
Hey Reigh, I'm a Singaporean living in the US and today is a day of immense loss for us. I'm glad to have stumbled on your post. He is a visionary man and there's no statesman I've seen like him. Ever
+Mel Zianne Teo Yes a great loss. I am Dutch and have visited Singapore 6x. I lived in Nigeria, Spain the Caribbean and now in Panamá the so called future Singapore of the South Americas. Still a long way to go as to education and wiping out corruption-nepotism. We are also a multi racial society. A far larger country than Singapore with a population of 3.8 million. It is a beautiful country. Come and visit. About 10% of our people are Chinese.
17? Impressed. We need more young people like you in this world to pay more attention and learn from great man like LKY rather than watching the Kardashian’s.
@@cainetey why u thumb up
I miss listening to this brilliant and pragmatic man.
i respect him. like his talk in comfortable atmosphere.
This man was the prime minister of Singapore when Singapore officially left Malaysia and at the same time, Tunku Abdul Rahman also held the position as first prime minister of Malaysia. And for other info he was born in 1923 and died in 2015. Make you realize how long this man has lived. As malaysian i respect him so much, Singapore become what their be today is because of him
Truly an inspiration not only to Singaporeans but to people all over the world who are willing to listen and learn from this thinker who has an amazing ability to execute strategy as well.
LKY command of language is superb. "If we are stupid, we won't be here"
1
why you still here?
there's a difference between being not stupid and being smart enough
Really? What about the middle-east? (Less Israel.)
@@JohnSmith-nz2yq powered by metro dollar compared to Singapore who has nothing except its people.
To continue with the same pace and the developmental continuity for Singapore..LEe Kuan Yew was a gift which guided the small nation to what we have today,good to watch the Lecture
That prediction about China. This man saw things so clearly. China's leaders are definitely different to the ones of the time he made this interview
LKY was a great leader with experiential insight obtained from his brilliant observations on the nature of truth in any given situation without egoistic or personal attachment. N together with his personal values of human goodness & Love of what truth is, the incorruptibility & personal discipline, LKY had set a high standardof leadership model by example that has inspired us and many more future generations of people.... Love & Blessings to LKY to rest in peace!

Yes ❤️
It’s all over with all the paper generals..
Yes, we will share it to humanity.
That's how it's done.
Atleast my work will remain forever.
Humanity will have the best Era.
I hope they don't forget the history how will have the abundance of the future.
Im from the Philippines but i admire him so much. One of the brilliant minds in modern times.
I love my country, Singapore:)

Wow it’s a pure joy to hear this man talking, such wisdom and charisma
Nobody talks much about LKY's sense of humour but it is hilarious and his timing is perfect.
A man who is humorous is a man who is intelligent. There are no exceptions

Rest in Piece Lee Kuan Yew, you will be missed. Left quite the legacy.
Peace not Piece !
Rest in pieces you meant ?
thank you INSAED for this show... master lee kuan yew said it... we dont have oil wealth... wd have indigenous strengths... to add, we dont have annihilation weapons as america... we have indigenous strengths, our characteristics our personalities... thank you and all respect to master lee kuan yew...
The nation you and your economic advisors and the people of your country build is absolutely marvelous.
We missed you very much Mr Lee. We will always remember you.
Young Singaporeans like me basically grew up adoring this great man!
Dan C he was very wise
Until you grow up and realise the misdeeds he has done. But in the end, when one shapes the whole nation in his image, preventing others from giving input and contributing to the progress in their different perspectives, of course we ended up here because of him. Ownself hardcarry only because he only allow himself to carry.
@@johannapfelburg6286 May I know what affiliation or knowledge you have with Singapore?
@@johannapfelburg6286 lmao, he didn't own self hard carry. He had alot of help from bright leaders in Singapore for example Rajaratnam
@@salted5245 But he was the main decision maker if he made the end decision wrongly it would be terrible. He also had it the hardest when Singapore separated from Malaysia
The first time , almost 40yrs ago, heard Mr Lee spoke...over TV...in election and matters of the day...and at times to young cohorts students of higher education institutions. It is captivating, humorous, serious , humility , true sense of integrity, of the many of his speeches that I happened to listen on.
On the day ...it was pouring heavy rain , a Caucasian lady fainted in front , people rushed to help her...we were bidding our final goodbye to Mr Lee Kuan Yew..a great and compassionate statesman.
He is truly a great data bank. Unbeatable.... He will be sorely missed.
10 yrs ago that this video was shared. Thats an amazing throwback. Thanx and congratulations then for sharing it with us all. Now its already 8 October 2022. 🇸🇬🇸🇬👌👌✌🐾🌻🕊🤗🤗
GRANFATHER I MISS YOU REST IN PARADISE HEAVEN I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU. JEWELL MAKTOUM
His thoughts are carefully thought through and with great sense! He gave us real leadership in the early years! No one great statesman has his vision for so many years! A prosperous Singapore is his making and we greatly appreciated it!

True legend, Mr. Lee Kuan Yew
i love this guy. what a fine leader, clearly a gem in Asia.
CNA.. Thanx and Congratulations for sharing this video with us all. Dated this today 1st December 2022. Welcome December.. 🕊🕊🇸🇬🇸🇬🦋🦋🐾✌🌍⚡⚡❤❤❤
P.M Lee Kuan Yew🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬Great Man 🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬Done So much for Singapore. 🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬For Singaporean People 🙏🙏🙏🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬
When I saw this I cried give my strength give everything to him but I think i Connor do it the only one thing is I can keep him in my heart R.I.P LKY
He was inspirational gifted,
the centre of the education is the teachers. cant agree more.
LKY us truly humorous.
Not many can hold his candle like the way he hold it.
I admire him more than anyone
One of the greatest man
Study what works and implement what suits you - simple and effective approach - great man.
In the International Baccalaureate 2023, out of 99 world students who got perfect scores, 55 came from Singapore.
This was 2007 saw a video of 2011 4 years later and his mental state has deteriorated so much BUT still he was able to mildly engage speakers on Taiwan China and US .. age really robs you of consciousness
His health deteriorated rapidly after the passing of his wife. This much he loved her. Singapore is so blessed to have him with us as our founding father, missed him till this day ❤️🇸🇬
I miss Singapore. I worked there for two years. It was 14 years ago .The Singapore political leadership are so great. I'm thinking back if I wasn't move from Singapore my life might peaceful now.
True leader.
But he also really works for the good for Singapore!
How wonderful speach ,welcome with cultural ❤❤❤inviting,,,deep speach about the life and culture and global awareness,,,Superb
The Indian who asked his question truly represents the Indian mindset. It is I who is this that and the other. As if anyone was interested. The response by MM Lee was specific to the issue that bedevils India. No one with talent wants to get into government. No personal sacrifice. The bureaucracy is bloated and inefficient. India will never be a new super power. it is simply experiencing a short window of prosperity. That too will disappear when economic trends change.
I believe India will be a superpower,with an economy in shoulders with China,watch it out
My respect to you sir LKY. Your leadership is being admired across countries.
This man was a rare instance of forward thinking, clarity of mind, leadership on a global scale. It is surprising that he had those qualities still honed well into middle age and elder age. The world consumes many people but he instead lead and thought and made good things happen.
I know not that much about this guy, but one thing is for sure, he is smart as hell...
Sir You A Very Daring And A Grateful Person.Thanks.
A Thai monk taught me: In the Dhamma, you will see the Buddha. In the Buddha, you will see the Dhamma. Although he has passed on, in his memoirs, you will see LKY. And what he needed to teach you on good governance, it all there. Learn it and apply his teachings.
That 'foreign correspondent' FT guy who proposed 'thinking out of the box' actually means 'raiding the parliament house', 'burning and looting' and of course 'anti' at all government policies that threw everything out of the window. Freedom and democracy definitely. 👍
how i miss our founding father...
Congratulations 👏 and all the best for your success and happiness ❤️
Mr Lee Kuan Yew is simply indescribable as a leader.. An erudite Statesman , A Colossus indeed...A succint speaker. Reminds me of the comment in the Holllywood Film "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly". I quote the line spoken by Eli Wallach, " .... if you can shoot, shoot! Don't talk!!...."
Truly the Father of Singapore as we know her today....
Sorry Sir I Am Busy I Have
Already Watchd Yesterday.
Thanks.
Very well said sir
The Leader of this century!
Love LKY's response to that person from FT!
If LKY /someone similar …was made US president, at least once, this world might have been a far better place
Wise man
Salute
A few years ago while on vacation in Iceland, I met a young lady from Singapore and mentioned that I was had a lot of respect for LKY.She replied "I cried when he died, the whole country cried and it rained all day".In other words the very sky cried.
He is a brilliant man and a very clear-eyed. RIP
👍👍👍 "To be a leader of any country, you have to be a part of them; to know instinctively what will go right, what will go wrong." - LKY
