1. Singapore's founding father Lee Kuan Yew and his team had far-sighted strategy and developed Singapore with clean , creative and effective leadership. The second and third generation leaders have inherited the good nation-building spirit. They really cared for the well-being of the nation and people. 2. Many THANKS for preparing and uploading this video. 3. It is hoped that some countries' leaders will be inspired by your video and do really good things for their people.

Singapore will still be the most livable country in ASEAN in next 10-15 years. The warmer weather impacts not only SG but all surrounding countries in this region as we're tropical countries. That guy came from a colder country he definitely can't find himself living here in next 10 years.

Many find good aspects of Singapore but still need to find something negative to say about it. It seems there needs to be a "balanced" view. Words like authoritarian or draconian are used without truly understanding why Singapore succeeds and is successful. In Singapore what is important is the well being of the community and Singaporeans are not like Westerners who put individualism ahead of the community. That is why different ethnic groups with different belief systems can live and work together. This is a very short presentation focused on how Singapore has progressed economically. There are so many other areas not considered like the hard work needed to improve the environment, racial and religious harmony and how despite being highly urbanised Singapore still has wildlife living in the city.

In 1972 I was 23 yrs old. Just starting out like Singapore. I have seen Singapore progression from than till now 2024. ‘Sentosa’ was call ‘Blakang Mati’ than. Not develop into a tourist destination yet. My basic military camp was here. 😳 Basically, Singapore got LKY and though Singapore was poor than, it started on a clean slate. These are the 2 main reasons why Singapore IS one of the richest country today. Singapore knows no corruption than. Corruption is like cancer. Once it set in, it’s difficult to eradicate. This is one of the main reason why countries cannot progress and remain in the ‘3rd world’ stage.

Of course, Singapore is liveable in 10-15 years and many more years.

It is true that Singapore cannot grow as much trees as we can on this 735 sq km island. But we are trying our best by being at the forefront of sustainability reporting and finding innovtive ways to be more green. We are also conducting R & D on which may be of benefit to the wider environment.

Socrates was not a big fan of democracy … Democracy is a luxury that young nations can’t afford to have. Back in 1965 every Latin American nation was in better position than Singapore and richer. Look at Singapore and compare it to Latin America now, people have all the right to laugh. We don’t need to look at an extreme example like Latin America; Singapore has a higher GDP per capita than the USA and the UK which was the former colonial master of Singapore, how about that? Singapore is the 3rd most important financial center in the world after New York and London respectively. Singapore must not abandon discipline and/or follow the nonsense of Western nations.

There's no other world's leader has ever sincerely worried and cried for his/her country except Singapore's leader! For that as a Singaporean I'm willing to sacrifice my life for it to protect my country!

Singapore always incorporates greenery in their buildings and every corners of the country for the last few decades. Saying in 15 to 20 years Singapore is not liveable and workers cannot work outside is shortsighted and laughable. Singapore does not have large areas of forest or jungle when it was colonised, to start with. We are not like jungle Borneo. We don’t have jungles and we can still live without it in decades to come.

It is not all LKY. The people back in the 60s and 70s had a LOT to do with its success. I grew up there during that time. Lots of energy, can do attitude, always on the move, learning, improving, borrowing the best of its ethnic cultures. Chinese hungry for success in a foreign land. The artistic nature and sensibilities of the Malays. The legal framework and proprieties of the British. The business acumen of both the Chinese and Indians. The endurance and high tolerance for suffering hardship of the Chinese and Indians. It was very much bottoms up. The values of the first generation filtering through the second generation. The growth now is driven top down. Capitalising on the weaknesses of the west and China. Fate and luck drives it now. No longer bottoms up driven growth.

Singaporean here ❤❤

You know what’s funny? Some jokers still think and say that Singapore has the higher GDP per capita today is because Singapore is a small country and “EASY” to manage. Lmao!

God's gift to Singapore is Mr. Lee Kuan Yew.

Singapore has strong leadership and severe laws. LKY does not give a dam about the West. He has confidence and does it his way. All about quality and education. Humanity first, not money.

Malaysian are very irritating

They throw, " the whole book at you ", after they caught you with evidence and violation of rules. Let not talk about law. 🤣 What EXACTLY is the one word that made Singapore UNLIKE most nations of the world? It’s PUNISHMENTS 😲 👋 👍 Only ONE WORD to answer your question. YOU BREAK IT, YOU BUY IT!- Yes, you reap what you sow… This is the etiquette of what living in Singapore means to you What do you know about punishments in Singapore? While I have no intention to tarnish Singapore or put Singapore into a bad spot. What I'm going to answer are the facts known to people all over the world, including Singaporeans. ✓✓✓ 👍 CANING: While caning has been a thing of the past in most countries, many have forgotten about it except for some people, like Michael Fay, Swiss Foreign Talent and a suspect David Roach who have not forgotten about it yet. While Roach may have been spared from canning, it was the first fear he had about Singapore. Although similar crimes committed in other countries may stop with a fine or jail, but not in Singapore… And this will go on. ✓✓✓ THE NOOSE: While most countries in this part of Southeast Asia still implement the death penalty, or capital punishment, including Thailand and the Philippines. The nature of the crimes, like minor drug issues and murder, like selling 15 grams of heroin or murders that seem common in many countries. But not in Singapore, ask the family of a Filipina, Flor Contemplacion, or a Thai man, named: Damri Rinwong, a human rights group's leader who can relate the indescribable feelings to you when their loved ones were sentenced to face the gallows. ✓✓ THE FINES: People get to pay fines all the time for offenses or violators of the rule of law anywhere in the world. Take a look at Singapore’s fines that will scare you to death. Remembering the late politician J. B. Jeyaretnam, or the recent fines for many die-hard violators of the WFH order, could be fined up to $10,000 during a COVID scare? MINOR OFFENCES. ✓✓ Road rage and drink & drive are unstoppable problems and they have become a common offense in many countries. Would you like to know how Singapore handles it? Road Rage is considered a crime, It's mandatory jail terms besides a fine and caning both parties, and heavier punishment on the one who starts the first blow. ✓✓✓ Drink and drive. First offenders will go straight to jail. ✓✓ Illegal Races: Many cool guys who see themselves as the likes of Lewis Hamilton are using the public road as a racing arena like what we have seen in movies. Car chase scenes along Manhattan streets can be fun and entertaining. Try to do Illegal Races in Singapore and you will not only get a fine or jail term, but your Super cars will be impounded, as a compliment. ✓✓ Molestation. The description is clear when touching any part of other people's bodies knowingly or unknowingly is considered molestation. The penalty is severe unless you can justify the motives-Why touch?. 🤣 Singapore is a beautiful country. Singapore has been my favorite place , a day in Singapore is better than a week elsewhere, and it stays in my mind 👋🏼👍🏼

The world's population is currently estimated to be 7.8 billion. The Isle of Wight is 380 km2. It is reputed the whole population fit into Isle of Wight shoulder to shoulder. Singapore is nearly twice the size of Isle of Wight.

@@sadako2009 Well, there are advantages and disadvantages to hard work as with everything. Like, It's not possible to be happy if you're unemployed or poor. I've been both overworked and unemployed. Whether one is better depends on your personal financial sit and resources. Interestingly, many folks who got cut during covid decided to NOT return to work when their jobs called them back again. Hmm. But many did, I suspect cuz they HAD to.

and this is something to be proud of ? what a sick world when so many have nothing yet a wealthy country boasts and gloats...why is it so much about money ? what about life style away from greed and selfishness ? horrible

@monalisaaltenburg4879 I am a true blue Singaporean of merdeka generation. I witnessed the slum days in the early 60s of Singapore to its current state. All credit goes to Mr. Lee Kuan Yew and his entourage of able cabinet ministers like Goh Keng Swee, Lim Kim San, Ong Pang Boon...etc couple with the hard working pioneer and merdeka generation. So I am sure I know Singapore better than you or this bald guy (critic) near the end of this video.

Singapore looks good on the outside only.. The ordinary folks are suffering cos of the very high cost in living. Only the above average n rich enjoying life in Singapore. Public housing apartments costing over a million dollars(SGD) becoming a common thing now. It's ridiculous!

Genetically speaking , China & Taiwan is absolutely one-blood one heart .

You are telling about the wealth of the Singaporeans. Yes, they are rich but what about their debt? They have one of the highest debt in the It's like Ever grande. You would think that company has the biggest Capital all the while it was all coming from debt.

This is normal for many Chinese cities, see shenzhen.

Very smart leadership and hard working people.

Singapore's Debt is almost twice as big as it's economy. A better measure of net worth is assets minus liabilities. If you use that metric other economies especially those in the Middle East are far richer since they have very little debt if any and a lot of oil to boot and foreign holdings as well. What Singapore is good at is promoting itself as a tax haven for foreign capital and yes even if the funds comes from known corrupt tyrants hiding their loot. A model not too different from Hong Kong, Switzerland, Luxembourg and the Cayman islands. Their CPF is managed by the Rothschilds, a trillionaire family that's long been known for instigating wars for profit so one wonders how much involvement this family has over the island's affairs and even it's ownership on a deeper level.

When one mentions debt, one has to comprehend what debt comprises and not simply classify it in the layman form of 'i borrow from you now uou owe me $$ so pay up!' A huge chunk of Singapores internal debt includes national bonds and securities that arnt spent but invested. External debt comes primarily from the financial sector where when large deposit of capital from overseas is made a substantial portion of this money is deposited with its banks in Singapore. This is recorded as external liabilities. When these monies are further loaned out, it creates external assets. Do note the country is a net creditor with no net debt.

Singapore Government issues bonds to provide liquidity for financial markets but the proceeds are not used to support government spending. The government is normally not allowed to incur any debt unless in an economic crisis. Over the decades Singapore has accumulated a large reserve of budget surpluses and foreign currencies. These are invested and managed by Temasek and GIC for use in rainy days (war, economic crisis, etc) Even in a crisis the prime minister alone cannot access the reserves. The president (mostly a ceremonial role) has to appprove any decision to withdraw from the reserves. Do your research!
