@eduardoangeles9876 , might your views have been influenced by the imperialist need to divide in order to conquer? Not accusing, just questioning because I got a very different impression of him.
Rahul Kanwal has developed the very bad habit of interrupting his guests right in the middle of a sentence. A poor interviewer. His questions are too long and he ends up taking more time in asking questions than he gives his guests to answer them. Total buffoonery.
The host acknowledged problems with China but he didn’t know that India has bigger domestic and international problems than those of China. His world view explains why India falls behind China in most aspects.
I think this commentator Rahul is unprofessional and rude. Let your guest finished the sentence before you interrupt. Anyway this guy Rahul is also anti-China from the way he threw out stupid questions hoping Kishore to talk something negatively about China.
Conversion of interests and understanding of each other instead of trust and personal relationships is the foundation, well said. The guy should get educated as well. By the way, show your respect and don’t interrupt.
Yes, I noticed this India guy was rude and impatient. Cut in before Prof Kishore Mahabuni could finish his speech on India and China relationship. He seemed to be very negative about China.
Mahbubani: India China border over some barren rocks is not important. The global interests of these two countries are important. Anchor: Selling the "Scary Northern Dragon" story to the Indian public is how we media get paid.
@@rka-truthalwayswins5127 lol... Do you realise you are brain washed? Tibet has been part of China since the Yuan dynasty. And everyone knows how the McMahon line came about.
Wasting time talking to this TV host who is so ignorance , arrogant and with fixed mindset of just pushing everthing should be in India's favour. What a biased fellow.
You must understand that many BRICS nations are ideology opposed to one another. Some are Capitalist, others are Communist, some are Socialist, while others are dictators.
Many are your economic rivals. Your competitors. So for instance, India exports wheat, but so does Russia. India exports rice, but so does countries like China and Brazil.
@@chriswong9158 Not necessarily.. Some people become legends and Kishore is one of those very few people on the globe so a site doesn't matter that much!!
Rahul is not professional as a newsman. He is overtly nationalistic and he suffers from severe confirmation bias. His usual trick-of-trade is to put across his own thesis in different ways to his interviewee and tries to strong-arm his interviewee to confirm it. In this interview, Rahul tried so many times to get The Hon. Ambassador Kishore Mahbubani to confirm his thesis that China is crumbling, China came begging to India to sign this truce, China is desperate for Indian markets, etc. The Hon. Ambassador's rich experience as the former President of the UN Security Council and Permanent Secretary of Singapore's MFA shone through. He was calm and balanced, patiently but firmly swatting away those nationalist pretensions and explained why the de-escalation is in the strategic interests of BOTH countries. Of course BOTH countries benefit from lowering tensions and improving cooperation. Why would India sign this truce if China is the main beneficiary? As for the truce - In the end, cooler (and wiser) heads in both countries prevailed. Kudos to the wise and mature leaders and diplomats of India and China.
That host has another agenda in his interview. It sounds like he's saying that working toward peace is untrustworthy and that building on mistrust is challenging. WTF??!
In fact China is one of the most trusted countries. Their deeds matches their words most of the time. You can't say the same for US whose leaders often say one thing but do another.
Yes, Chinese follows Confucius which stressed on being righteous. That's why business deals were done based on spoken agreement. It is very different to the values from the west.
Professor Kishore is a legend, he has been living and working in Singapore that he understands Chinese people and thought very well, including China. He seemed to bear the brunt of buzzingly noise for the first time
I hope this is the last time Mahbubani agrees to be interviewed by this guy. This guy is prejudiced and biased, speaking as if India is the saint and China is the devil in this bilateral relationship
India and China have thousand years of unfading civilization. Together, they can make the world a better place to live. China now happens to be the number two following the US hegemony and inevitably becomes the US hit target. But if this number two happens to be India, the US will not hesitate to do the same. Hope India will not get carried away by the sweet words of the West.
Our media stuck in BJP , congress,AAP hindu , Muslims and caste politics in international level geopolitical they scratch their head they didn't have any idea .
This media guy super naive, hugging each other seems to define closeness of friendship,as an optic yes, but don't bet on it!And not to forget Chinese culture, hugging is not comfortable practice of the Chinese people,even among husbands and wife. Hugging is more a western norm. You can bet your last dollar Chinese is about respect and giving face to each other. Maybe Indian leaders like Modi,hugging for politicians are for the camera, that one is equal.
Was it also the convergence of interests when India aligned itself with the Five Eyes rather than the region? What India needs to reflect above all is sincerity. If Indians in Singapore can reflect sincerity and rise above, then I do not see why Indian in India cannot. India just has to choose the right leaderships
So you a nobody knows more about India & the leadership than Indians who voted leaders in power which is something in existent in China & corrupted in USA/Europe??!!
The host looks like shellshocked not expecting what the answers he got from Kishore. He is not really nationalist he just a brainwashed by western interests.
Mahbubani is in a class of his own. The interviewer is injecting his rookie ideas unto this intelligence and giant of a Diplomat. Settle down and control your emotions.
This is the first time I’m watching this host and he is such an emotional wreck! He lets his ego about being ‘Indian’ get to him, that he doesn’t listen to what Prof. Mahbubani is fully saying. He seems to be such an anti-China hater. Prof. Kishore Mahbubani is a fellow Singaporean and I’ve respected him and his writings for many years. He speaks with great care and diplomacy. If the average Indian and Indian media journalists like, Mr Rahul keep up their inflated and indignant ego about being Indian and being perpetually offended by China; then they will remain stuck in that vicious cycle of never MOVING FORWARD! It will be of their own doing. As Prof Mahbubani said, diplomatic relations rise and wane, but the most important thing to do, is to start with the latest/ newest starting point and move forward to make amends and improvements in the bilateral relationship. Prime Minister Modi is a great and strong leader. He wants to take the great nation of India to the next level. I believe China is happy for India to keep rising. As a Singaporean, I would like to see both India and China become powerful, secure and friendly towards each other.
You don't become suddenly friends, friendship grows slowly and there are many factors involved in estsblishing a friendship. One of the very important factor is "trust".Mutual trust.Unconditional trust.
Terrible hosts instead of letting the guest talk, non-stop depicting the negativity of China to position the guest to criticise China. If both countries(India & China) compromised, they must have concluded the benefits of working together. Don’t think the agreement is just initiated from China alone due to their economic downturn, India has even bigger issues - large poverty, good logistics infrastructure, stable electricity & supply-chain, etc. 🤔 Perhaps, India needs China
the interviewer has tonnes of ego ,, he should climb down and allow his guest to explain his views ,, otherwise he come out as somebody who is fixed on making his point of view rather than allowing his guest to give his views freely ,,
I hope people understand the fundamentals beneath the surface of the India China Border issues: 1) India China Border issues are GOOD for India. It creates a "security narrative" to keep India united. Nothing unites a people better than an overwhelming external threat, no matter how real that threat is. 2) China won't invade India. Conflict yes, war no. It is quite simple. India and China are separated by a HUGE WALL. China knows India cannot come over the WALL to invade China. And India knows China cannot sustain the logistics of supporting an invading army coming down from the WALL. They need to face billions of Indians on the plain. Not possible. 3) The armed conflict in 1962 is just that: an armed conflict. India wants to "Look North" (aka, squeeze and squat into South Tibet) and China confronted India with an iron fist. But there is no war. China quickly retreated because, again, there was a serious logistics issue to sustain its force on the other side of the WALL. 4) But India would use this minor 1962 armed conflict to create a security narrative that there is a "Scary Northern Dragon" ready to invade India. So, we Indians need to be united and fight that dragon! With this narrative, the Indian government can distract its people from domestic issues, when the needs rise. Indian military will use this security narrative to squeeze for more government funding. Indian media will use constant reporting on this scary neighbor to get more views. "China Threat" becomes an industry for many people. Of course we cannot give up this industry for "peace." Peace won't make money. Scare does. 5) More than four years ago, Modi gambled that Trump would be in office for yet another 4 years, and even more years if his VP win after he leaves the office. So, Modi instigated a border conflict with China, expecting that China was in the middle of a trade war and tech war with US, and it would make concession to India. But the plan backfired. China swiftly gave India a bloody nose. Worst yet, Trump left office right after, and Biden had not provided more FDI and friendshoring to India, just empty talks in QUAD. As result of the border conflict, India's thriving economic cooperation with China suffered greatly. The Chinese imports, including finished products, components, chemicals and heavy equipment continues to enter India, as India's GDP growth depends on them. But there is no infrastructure and manufacturing ecosystem corporation between India and China. This lack of cooperation contributes to the stagnated Make In India progress. India's manufacturing percentage in GDP actually dropped, not grown, since Modi took office. 6) At the end, Indian people lost. Instead of riding on the rise of China, Indians are constantly pulling back and forth about this China Threat, which results in chilled economic relationship with the biggest manufacturing nation on this planet. It is time for a change. Thus, you see the thawing of India China relationship, with the BRICS meeting as the catalyst. From China's perspective, as long as India sits on the fence, not completely siding with US/EU camp, it is GOOD ENOUGH. So, China smiles to India. India smiles to China. A new beginning. But for how long?
Not just "middle of a trade war and tech war", but also midst a serious pandemic of what was then a deadly novel virus. To india, this was a moment when the stars & planet all aligned, so to speak. But like you said, it turns out to be a mistake.
I think any interviewer should gives the interviewee chance to discuss his or her feelings about the interview. The interviewer should not interrupt or project his or her feelings to the interviewee. People whose are watching the interview, want to understand every answer given by the interviewee.
Your guest is right,India is thinking of five years while China is long term.China’s century of humiliation didn’t confine in mainland but overseas Chinese suffered greatly as well.we were treated like dirt.
That host is preempt with war mongering and anti China attitude. He wont take no as an answer. On the other hand, Prof Kishore is highly intellectual and patient.
If India insists on having the last say, it will retard the Asian century progress. India immediate needs are to develop the economy fast and steady which require a sustained period of political stability. Singapore professor is right that foreign relation is built on convergence of national interest not blind trust. Current good relations with US is no exception. Because of one party rule, China has very long term Plan. Hopefully India does not miss the current rate opportunity for greatness by short term gains.
Deputy Secretary of State Curt Campbell summed it up this way, "India cannot be counted on as US ally." it doesn't take a genius to decipher that. does it? the gig is up for Modi.
This Rahul guy appears to a fool and no journalist. The poor fellow has to re learn basics of journalism! He tried to act more loyal than the king attributing a lot India has never said officially. He must learn to restrain himself and try to get useful analysis from great scholars like Kishore Mahbubani. Not try overwhelming them like this guy tries to!
There are border disputes between China and India,both countries should address these issues,America should not be allowed to use India as its soldiers in America war on China,Taiwan is integral part of china just like Andaman is part of India,this fact is recognised by America and India,even then America is supplying weapons and soldiers to Taiwan,this is equivalent to sending weapons to terrorists in Kashmir,north east of India,do India encourage?
What do you expect? A love fest between them? Of course, it is a "convergence of interests." Politics 101: Any first-year college student can tell you that; one does not need 50 years of political experience to discern that.
Don't Indians listen to their Leaders speeches on what Agreements they make and their reasons? Don't they understand? Why should Indians and others try to understand it from reporters or medias views according to their interpretations? And it is not the job of reporters or medias to determine the geopolitics of a country unless directed by the Govt. of the day. Who rules the country and have the power to decide geopolitical strategies?
The anchor needs to explain why India decided to change its maps including places that are in China - but India likes to forget its own actions and pretend everything is 'unexplained.' Excellent to see the great Kishore Mahbubani -- shame about the interviewer.
Really experienced guests in this topic .l see kisor sires other podcast he well known how countries in the world work. Thanks to india today for bringing him.
5 minutes into the interview is all that I could stomach seeing how mediocre and unprofessional Rahul is as an interviewer, and otherwise a huge waste of time saved by Kishore’s wisdom. Rahul reflects the general ignorance and blind nationalism of the Indian population thinking that it is China that crawls to India for help. The fact is india is unable to protect its investors in manufacturing industries and many had left! Its many anti China moves had horribly backfired on itself, amongst many other failures, and the rest it’s not hard to see now who needs who more.
If China and India could get along with each other then what Kishore told was right when during a speech he told that if China and India could manage a working relationship that will benefit both
INDIA AND CHINA ARE NEIGHBOURS. INDIA UNDERSTANDS THE HUMILATIONS CAUSED BY THE WEST TO CHINA AS THEY ALSO SUFFERED THESE SAME HUMILIATIONS CAUSED BY THE WEST.cooperation is better then unneccesary conflict
The world has become a board game in which: USA is playing Checkers, thinking 1 move ahead. Russia is playing Chess, thinking 5 moves ahead. China is playing Go (Weiqi 围棋), thinking 10 moves ahead.
Does this journalist work for CNN or Fox News by any chance?? That what his interviewing style reminds me of. Also, how dare he interrupt his excellency Mahbubani??
Mahbubani is right is emphasizing relation rather than trust as the guiding principles of geopolitics. India need to come out of the trauma of the thousand year rule of India by Muslims as the impediment in its relation with China.
Can India trusts US??? The professor is right that it is the convergence of interest that pull countries together. India n China has more interest with convergence possibility than between India and US.
Rahul , please control your emotions and behave more professional as new agents
the interviewer is more about prove himself right than give the interviewee the platform. Classic NPD.

There are border disputes between China and India,both countries should address these issues,America should not be allowed to use India as its soldiers in America war on China,Taiwan is integral part of china just like Andaman is part of India,this fact is recognised by America and India,even then America is supplying weapons and soldiers to Taiwan,this is equivalent to sending weapons to terrorists in Kashmir,north east of India,do India encourage?
And this is why Prof Mahbubani is a professor while the interviewer is just a journalist. What a joke of an interviewer.
hope to hear the view of the professor on this newsman.
Wise man
Bottom Line; REMEMBER THE CHINESE “OPIUM” WARS 🤯SUPPORTED BY THE “BANIA” TEAM OF GUJARAT ‼️
What do you expect? A love fest between them? Of course, it is a "convergence of interests." Politics 101: Any first-year college student can tell you that; one does not need 50 years of political experience to discern that.
Don't Indians listen to their Leaders speeches on what Agreements they make and their reasons? Don't they understand? Why should Indians and others try to understand it from reporters or medias views according to their interpretations? And it is not the job of reporters or medias to determine the geopolitics of a country unless directed by the Govt. of the day. Who rules the country and have the power to decide geopolitical strategies?
This Journalist host has certainly come from a very biased mindset instead of being factual.
The anchor needs to explain why India decided to change its maps including places that are in China - but India likes to forget its own actions and pretend everything is 'unexplained.' Excellent to see the great Kishore Mahbubani -- shame about the interviewer.
Rahul is very emotional and biased , and is unfit to be a journalist
Just shut your mouth already, let your guests talk and answer your question. Jeez, zip it.
Really experienced guests in this topic .l see kisor sires other podcast he well known how countries in the world work. Thanks to india today for bringing him.
These two great country should bolt together and see when these two become good friend they are greater than the US. but dont forget Russia.
Can you be respectful? Why your language is always offensive as you Lebel China as Dragon!
5 minutes into the interview is all that I could stomach seeing how mediocre and unprofessional Rahul is as an interviewer, and otherwise a huge waste of time saved by Kishore’s wisdom.
Rahul reflects the general ignorance and blind nationalism of the Indian population thinking that it is China that crawls to India for help. The fact is india is unable to protect its investors in manufacturing industries and many had left! Its many anti China moves had horribly backfired on itself, amongst many other failures, and the rest it’s not hard to see now who needs who more.
Well Said
India claim and China claim lac so who really are speaking truth..
If China and India could get along with each other then what Kishore told was right when during a speech he told that if China and India could manage a working relationship that will benefit both
Cheers for another step towards world peace.
LOL 😂 “CONVERGENCE” ON QUAD 🤣
Just want to know - how much is INDIA's sovereign RESERVES - ?
And where is it KEPT ?..
In USA or EUROPEAN banks ?
Good afternoon Dr Kishore ❤️🇮🇳🇨🇳🦾😇
Both China and India are competing powers so a certain amount of distrust will always remain
India needs to see China as a partner rather than an enemy.
COUNTER QUESTION 🙋 CAN A RSS FASCIST “BANIA” BE TRUSTED ⁉️
Really two powerful countries shouldn't risk an undefined border this many decades😮
INDIA AND CHINA ARE NEIGHBOURS. INDIA UNDERSTANDS THE HUMILATIONS CAUSED BY THE WEST TO CHINA AS THEY ALSO SUFFERED THESE SAME HUMILIATIONS CAUSED BY THE WEST.cooperation is better then unneccesary conflict
Siamese twins bound by water resources!
The world has become a board game in which:
USA is playing Checkers, thinking 1 move ahead.
Russia is playing Chess, thinking 5 moves ahead.
China is playing Go (Weiqi 围棋), thinking 10 moves ahead.
Everything is possible with the dharma ... Raise the consciousness above colonialism!
Host's bias and hate destort his view of reality. small mind.
If that was the case this host described, the West wouldn't be giving the BRICS group a dam about it.
PM restored peace at LAC. National interest and economic progress are key strategy of the PM
Does this journalist work for CNN or Fox News by any chance?? That what his interviewing style reminds me of. Also, how dare he interrupt his excellency Mahbubani??
Mahbubani is right is emphasizing relation rather than trust as the guiding principles of geopolitics. India need to come out of the trauma of the thousand year rule of India by Muslims as the impediment in its relation with China.
Under his light blue shirt and maroon colour jacket, was Kishore Mahbubani just wearing a pair of shorts?
The two countries have a long way to go
Can India trusts US??? The professor is right that it is the convergence of interest that pull countries together. India n China has more interest with convergence possibility than between India and US.
BRICS Pay is the Future // UPI Payment is the Future // Like it or Not - !!
