    A great man thinking on his feet.
    A man worldly wise. Singapore has the good fortune to have him at the most difficult time. He may not satisfy everybody, or make dealing with everybody fair, but he made Singapore stand out for the long term, and for the better of every Singaporean.. To me, He is GOD sent.

    3:55 Entrepreneurship definition by Bapson College in Boston. Executing on that opportunity.
    4:42 *An entrepreneur sees, evaluates, and exploits opportunities - whereas a manager concentrates on the effective use of available resources to achieve optimal results.*
    10:19 The difference between British and American values cannot be more profound. *The USA is a frontier society.* By and large, there were and are no class barriers. Everybody celebrated getting rich. Everybody wanted to be rich and tried to be, as a great new urge to start new enterprises and create wealth, the USA has been the most dynamic society in innovating and starting up companies to commercialize new discoveries or inventions - thus creating *new wealth.* American society is always on the move and changing, has lead the world in patents, striving to do something new or do something better, faster, cheaper, or increasing productivity. Having innovated a product that sold in America, they then marketed it worldwide.
    10:50 The USA. American society is always on the move and changing. This is the spirit that generates a dynamic economy.
    11:40 Self-made men attract ridicule and condescension in snooty Japan. These were also the social attitudes of the British upper class before Margaret Thatcher set out to challenge and to change them.
    12:10 For every successful entrepreneur in America, many have tried and failed. Quite a few tried repeatedly until they succeeded. Quite a few succeeded and continued to create and startup new companies as serial entrepreneurs. This was the way America's great companies were built, this is the spirit that generates a dynamic economy.
    12:50 Chinese cultural values = "the social hierarchy of an agricultural society, and has not changed much in popular culture. The merchant class did not enjoy high social status in most agricultural societies."
    13:00 Chinese traditional society values the scholar #1 and the merchant last. (Self-sufficient agricultural society unwilling to embrace changes, did not spark the Industrial Revolution or give rise to capitalism).
    16:35 Hong Kong vs. Singaporean businessmen
    22:42 *The dream of wealth attracts everyone. But it is those who innovate in creating new products and services who will be the new rich.* Few are born entrepreneurs and not many will succeed. To succeed as a successful entrepreneur, one has to have some extraordinary qualities: high energy levels, a cut of mind that sees opportunities where others see problems, and a keen sense of what product or service will be profitable.”
    23:30 Singapore’s small domestic market and the general weakness of the economies in the region made it more difficult for startups to grow without exporting. Therefore, those seeking funding have to demonstrate an ability to penetrate global markets. Singapore had the 3rd lowest rate of entrepreneurial activity among the GEM (Global Entrepreneurship Monitor) 2001 countries, just above Japan and Belgium. 5.2% SG vs 11.7% in the USA.
    27:00 4 salient features of American entrepreneurial culture
    1. A national emphasis on personal independence and self-reliance. Americans do many things for themselves.
    2. Respect for those starting new businesses.
    3. Acceptance of failure in entrepreneurial and innovation efforts.
    4. Tolerance for a high degree of income disparity. For over 30 years, Singapore has aimed for an egalitarian society. If we want to have more successful entrepreneurs, Singaporeans must accept a greater income disparity between the successful and the not-so-successful.
    31:10 Those in the professions and corporations must also have an entrepreneurial outlook - able and willing to take their professional services or companies in new directions. Being entrepreneurial does not mean only starting big new companies. Every new business, however small that fills a need is an enterprise that adds to our dynamism.
