      exactly. that is how a Prime Minister should speak at a global forum. We must hug the fat legs of the West even harder now, because Indonesia is trying to curry favors with both US and China. Indonesia represents the greatest threat to our Singaporean Cause.

    Singapore, and by extension that the SE Asian nations also shared similar sentiments, is telling America not to decouple and force everyone to have to choose sides because they might not like what SE Asia might choose. He is also telling America to put up or shut up, unlike China which is actually doing something concrete in the region. He is warning America not to plunge west Pacific into a conflict because SE Asia will not appreciate being destabilized for America's interests.

    Even though property price + rent is very high inside Singapore, but homelessness is almost nil, citizens can afford to own houses through government program and various public housing assistances to its population.

    China and USA has more economic growth and assets. Who is Singapore to represent China or USA? Are the leaders address the issues or just a general talk? Issues, like peoples dressing, medicine, homes, wider income inequality. Address these issues and more issues, in all the countries. From the perspective of Singapore leader. High & Low, Right & Left, 2 sides of a coin. Just becuz The ruling party currently is PAP, for so long,but people are silenced so we hide our expressions in fear of repression, like me, very low savings, depend on government for financial aid, to teach me to be poor and strategizing so that I will never make breakthroughs and taught to believe the opposition party cannot help me. Well, Singapore. A land of choice, a land of freedom, a land of biotechnology, a land of money, a land of the undereconomy. Having the guts and critical eye to criticise a military-like and money desperately with privileges or sex. Government. I am a Singapore citizen and I'm not afraid of backlash. Am I the only one to think,if I don't vote for PAP that they will strategize to make me die faster. Woah ! Are you understanding this? Or you are in the know , because conspiracy makes your lives more meaningful to either support, control or destroy others? GIVE MEANING TO LIFE?!!

      It's not even 1 percent of a 400b portfolio. It's part of investment, u calibrate your exposure according to risk. Glad we have intelligent people taking calculated risk and growing the fund to be one of the world biggest today despite us being such a puny country. Be less cynical, kinder and fairer with your views, then life will begin to treat you the same.

    Lawrence Wong said the PAP candidate selection process is "thorough and robust" but when Ivan Kim, one of the PAP candidates during the last election was criticized by voters the PAP did not defend him. The party told him to defend himself basically throwing him under the bus. He withdrew. The PAP also said the party will return to the issue after the elections. When? It is over a year since the last election.

      Not impressed when this is a Bloomberg interview and he has to improve his mannerism and choice of words as a designated statesman. The recommendation is to watch and learn from how world statesmen handle interviews.
      3 points to share:
      1. Never look at the camera during an interview. Just look at and talk to the interviewer and never give a big smile (do it only when you are talking to voters).
      2. Never answer the interviewer's questions by the letter, and never repeat his questions because nobody will remember them when you speak.
      3. If you don't know how to answer the interviewer's questions, talk about your favourite lines that you want the audience to hear and always remember that these recordings will still be around 50 years from now so don't let it come back to haunt you. Be a Master like your predecessor who took years to overcome his shyness before reaching the level of an expert.
