It's 11 years after George made this speech and he nailed them. Pandemic, China-US confrontation, harmony between man and nature are most telling. A God send thinker, philosopher and sage.
What a shame for Singapore pap losing him. A wise and humble man.

The people are watching Singapore ministers. People are scouting talented minister, the moment any talented minister leave politic people grap him immediately. I don't think there's any more talented minister like George Yeo in Singapore.

I only have trust in Heng and Tharman , Yee Kung and Shanmugam. The biggest worry is I do not see anyone that are smart and a good communicator. Chan is sincere but not so politically smart. Josephine too, did not do well this time round.
Amen my fellow human, much respect to you Sir! 🙏👏👏 Please push ahead and spread this philosophy far and wide Mr Yeo!!! Hope is not lost.
A great speech. Sad we lost his leadership ! A great lost to Singapore !
Truly a son of a Teochew Province of Swatow...when we have the 'Lao Sai Thio' wayang in Singapore. i enjoyed the best Teochew 'char kway tew' fried with fragrant duck eggs. Best Teochew fish balls and fish cakes at Ellenborough market made from pure fish meats from 'ikan keledek'. Well...those were the happy days near the Singapore River.

OMG! You must be really really old.. 🤔
As a leader who has been honoured to share at this conference is humbling, I can attest to the culture of excellence that MR GEORGE YEO has helped to create and sustain. That quality of life is captured at this outstanding platform that is clear and compact in its wording and impact. I am greatly delighted and highly recommend it to my friends who want substance and sustainable change in their life, vocation and ministries. His message is a great and sensitive. A message with dynamic content. Most importantly, you will find practical, and concrete actions. It speaks to my heart, lift my spirit, and strengthen my resolve to love. Eric Yeo
Amazing! He never have to refer to a written text for his speeches. Many of his forecasts and predictions have materialized to face the world now!
Sharing and caring is the best solution

Great sharing! Deep thoughts into the future. Does it meant that the Nalanda University project could not be revived? The Harmonization of Civilization project in reviving this Nalanda University is now abandoned?
One of our rare talents which was pulled down by non performing Yesmen in the garmen...sad. George always have my respect!!

It’s the GRC system planned to bring in less experienced Politicians backfired causing good leader like George to have to go. Maybe back to single ward voting, George would still be among those leading SG.

Sorry to say, from my standpoint he has been made 'a scapegoat' in politics. Don't take it too hard, George for there is always 'A Divine Law'.
He predicted the pandemic many years ago! A man of vision!
Is the text book still available 'ALL MEN ARE BROTHERS'.
A great leader before time.
A great speech
He had watch the film Contagion that why he know the covid 19 will happen
In 2013, he predicted correctly and in 2019 it is a "new pandemic" Sadly, if only authority had acted , it would not have ravage the whole world.
10:14 sooner or later
His prediction there will be another pandemic! How true. It happens today - covid 19!

I strongly propose TAN SOO KOON to be PM of singapore .
Too bad he had to quit Nalanda because there was too much politics.
Imam Ali ibn Abu Talib said that either we are brother's in faith or equal in humanity.
George go and read 'A taste of Islam' first

George Yeo beating around the bush!
Talked too much . A person of no substance . What do u mean left politics - got kicked out by the people of aljunied
