Not gonna lie, I am getting obsessed with this guy ever since I discovered his interview yesterday. I have been listening to his speeches all day today and I can barely find a thing that I do not agree with. What a sobering voice in this frenzied time. That being said, am I the only one noticing all the cute girls in the audience?
If you go with the west they want ( the corporations) want to colonize you as they are doing all over the world, just like the “East India company “ or the Dutch,French, Spanish, Portuguese plus other European countries.
@Albert Moore lol, how does it feel when Trump signed out of the TPP and China now leads the negotiations for a new tpp that doesn't have the US. Trump's idiocy(and Americans for electing him) helped China communist party more than anyone else. Sad!
This guy is not only a reflection of the intellect of Singapore, but he also represents the true potential of a Billion Indians if they were to think like this guy does, speak like him, do like him, be like him or a tad bit different but albeit saner wiser smarter.
求同存异，相向而行 has been the Chinese way of Diplomacy all the time - 求同存异 in English means seeking common ground and set aside the differences and 相向而行 is moving forward with the similarities (or common ground) - this is also what the Professor said at the end of his speech(39:15)....
I like the opening joke. Permantent secretary --- "eternal typist". similar jokes are: "General chair" was translated into chinese as "ordinary bench"; The "Power" button on an MP3 player was translated to "Macht" in Dutch. ... While watching Prof. Mahbubani's lecture, I start to miss a top diplomat of China, the late Mr. Wu JianMin.
Kishore was borned in Singapore. In Singapore ... Chinese, Malays and lndians live together as neighbours, going to the same schools, play in the same playground. He knows a lot about Chinese than you think.
Kishore is hired by universities in China as a consultant and an adviser. What you say and what the Chinese universities are doing are direct opposite. Obviously you never grow up in Malaysia or Singapore ... we Chinese, lndians and Malays grow up together as neighbours, classmates and friends celebrating Chinese, lndian, Malay and Christian festivals together so we ended up knowing everyone's cultures and taboos. Maybe Kishore doesn't understand Chinese culture like you say but the Chinese universities don't see it that way.
@@zenlei8258 Find out more about Kishore first before you claim to be better than him. He is a Dean of The Lee Kuan Yew Foundation .... anyone in Singapore knows, that place is only for the top 1% of the smartest people of the smartest people in Singapore. You are putting yourself too high. Be humble, arrogant is the mother of failure.
@@ftd7435 Kishore is so "" Academicians and scholars are like the monks of olde, confined in musty towers and cob-webbed basements, poring endlessly over esoretica and trivia, sadly convinced their efforts will have meaning one day. """
I am such a happy student eager to sit at the feet of my Elders……truly thankful to listen and learn from this enigma of intelligence put forth in the essence of Kishore Mahbubani…….I am grateful for his perspective and thankful for the art by which it is presented……….truly one of the Greats here……make no mistake and please listen well………there is a well of knowledge here should One ever become thirsty……..drink up and become more human even wise one day afar off🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Kishore is so right about the objective of appointing an embassy as a middle person to harmonise any predicament that could arise as a result of misunderstanding between two nations. We all have our differences as in every family, the members have each other’s differences, openly discussing can dissolve unpleasant energy but if one party persists not to listen and rule out what the best solution is, then harmony would surely have gone missing. Once this is happening there will never be Peace in this world any more. Hopefully one day, we will live in a more harmonious and peaceful world. Thanks Kishore for giving such an ultimately important talk .. May God bless your family and the world we live in. 😇🙏
his lightness of being on the harsh truths are delightfully humourous and highly palatable towards deeper absorption.. ... diplomacy at work. thank you sir.
Well articulated speech and providing a preface to his book. The diplomacy of today is played out in AI tech fashion. Power shift is occurring at digital speed between various power centres played out with new diplomatic skills. Situations are no longer predicable.
*Henry Kissinger wrote a good book about diplomacy entitled **_Diplomacy._** Kishore should have mentioned that book when he talked about the need for good sources on the subject.*
Kishore Mahbubani is a great geopolitician like Henry Kissinger. What he preditected 30 years ago came true. So learn from him cos it is a gift to the WEST ESP. AMERICA
thanks for the Manhattan project. without it ，there will not be such long peaceful time on earth；without it，we have no chance to catch up with those colonial Empires.
Chinese people wisdom is the mixture of 3 philosophies. They are Taoism, Confucius and Buddhist. They have applied these 3 wisdoms in their everyday lives and find a new ways and philosophy which can be summon to three values : Truthfulness, Kindness and Perfection. It's a pity that India pushed away one of the greatest wisdom of mankind The Almighty Buddha. Those, India is still practicing an invincible Caste system in their society. While China has assimilate Buddhist/Taoism/ Confucius for the last 2000 years. The Chinese people has follow the the right path of human beings. Their culture aren't of " differential people by their families."
Right now the ship represents the global community and the cabins represents the countries which represents the UN. As a captain first thing I will recommend is let USA walk the plank, the shark represents karma.
chas freeman knows diplomacy also about Asean, he forgot to mention confucians which is probably the glue that brings the others together and what he himself is
My friend Mr Baiden has a grandson in his fifth grade. He used to be No.1 in the whole school. He became the school captain from the 2nd grade. But he has noticed that a Chinese boy is coming up to take his place as the best student of the school. He has become worried and his grandpa Mr Baiden told him not to be worried and that the end justifies the means. He started to teach him all the dirty techniques to demonize the Chinese boy, even to the extent of spreading blatant lies about the Chinese boy，such as telling his group of friends that the Chinese boy is a spy etc. that he comes to steal their knowledge etc. etc. When Mr Baiden's grandson grows up, he remembers his grandfather's teachings and resorts to all dirty techniques to deal with his friends and foes, such as bugging his friends etc. Education is not just verbal teaching in schools, it is what one does that constitutes the effective teachings to the juniors. The Chinese elders will never educate their children in this immoral way by their ways of actions.
Its Dec 2020, We can now evaluate what Mr. Mahbubani said then, and how accurate it was or is. I was impressed with his opening speech, but the moment he showed his appreciation to Ch1na my stand started to shift. I may be biased, but its due to the facts (Facts of what Ch!na did to Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Nepal, India, Philippines, Vietnam, Japanese disputed island, Australia etc) Talking about Ch!na is preaching the choir. One can search Mr. Mahbubani talks on Ch!na on youtube. Neutrality: He talked about US President and UK PM, Yes they have done things that may not look right but one needs to understand the background of it, but lets take it as is for now. He does not talk of Ch!na's leader in the same way. That leader did not follow their own governance rules, i.e. removed the leadership tenure or limit, removed the restriction of power, is driving the world to wards a war (there was only leader from past who took the same steps). Spied on other UN reps, Did not honer Intnl Court verdict on Philippines's island and many such instance. does it not show Mr. Mahbubani's stance ? Diplomacy: About Diplomacy, it's not always done via Ambassadors. US does talk to enemy countries through other means. Like India has a back channel diplomacy with its enemy (Pakistan) via intelligence agency. CIA had it with KGB even during the East German crises and swap of agents. UN: I wish it were true, that, UN is the best org, but recent events have proven beyond doubt that it has failed us just as League of Nations did. Today a Powerful nation can do what they feel like, a country like Pakistan and Ch!na with well known Human Rights record are leading it. Today you can attack a country and kill its citizens under the guise of Terrorists and nothing can be done. With or WithOut UN, world today is like jungle, Ones with power rule it. If Ch1na were to attack Myanmar, who will defend or protect Myanmar ? ..I can assure None! But, I totally agree with his Boat analogy and that we need to look at the world's future with optimism.
Americunts don't listen. They are too filled with hubris and selective perception. It will take a catastrophic collapse of their rotten state before they acquire the humility to seek the truth.
With so much blood in its hand, the decline of America is inevitable, call it KARMA in a spiritual sense if you wish or, call it AWAKENING in the physical sense of you prefer. AWAKENING to the point of distancing themselves from America.
Learned a lot. But, lacking the aspects of diversity in knowledge creation, while not only giving prominence to occidental knowledge system . Better not label people as populists without understanding why they crop up.
How to deal with a evil regime. 1.29 million per year from 2014 to 2019, according to a Chinese government white paper from 2020.[3] Up to 1.8 million (2020 Zenz estimate)[4] 1 million - 3 million over a period of several years (2019 Schriver estimate)[5][6] Plus ~497,000 minors in special boarding schools (2017 government document estimate)[7]
Jack Ma is safe and ok...but Ant group proposal have been rejected ...probably too high risk to the ordinary people....China take care of ordinary people. Normally the biggest profit goes to the few capitalist big major share holders but the biggest risk taken by many small share holders....if the company fail and Ant is ver big it will rattle the ordinary people and so the Chinese government want to ensure these thing dont happen. In the US we see many bail out for too big to fail company's.

One of the sanest persons in the world. Another great speech.
Yes i agree
Kishore is a real well rounded global scholar in international relations.
Kishore is such a man of wisdom. He has very diplomatically defined, described and explained the word “Diplomacy”. Thumbs up👍👍😄🙏
We are all on the same boat living under different cabins. So true.
It is always very enlightening to learn from Prof Kishore. He has a balanced and true view of the events in the world.

Because the only thing that they are good at is spinning themselves to stupid western audiences voting power.
