Mr Lee Kuan Yew believes that in the event of Chinese military action being taken against Taiwan, the Americans would not intervene. He explains his rationale.
People say Deng Xiaoping was the reason behind the rise of China. What People don’t realize is that it was actually Lee Kuan Yew that led Deng Xiaoping after visiting Singapore for China to open their special economic zones that ultimately led to the rise of the Chinese economy and China to open up to the world. In some sense, China found someone to lead them to prosperity... and it was Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore.

It was money not time that worked against America. Too much money and resources spent on Afghanistan was leaving the emerging Indo-Pacific wide open. If China was not a rising power America would have plopped down on Afghanistan and stayed there another 20+ years I fear.

@@ebonymaw8457actually no many countries were involved in the korean war not just America, also unlike with veitnam case most south koreans were in favor of west verse north korea who didn't have soviets full support. China also only got involved cuz their own borders were threatened, china have no interests in north korea but they also don't want usa base in their door steps. That why you don't see china interfering in north korea internal affairs they dont care they just want to be left alone.

Indeed LKY was a great MENTOR par excellence - to whomsoever sought his advice. The fact that Deng Xiao Ping travelled 🧳 all the way from China 🇨🇳 to meet LKY and see Singapore 🇸🇬 for himself was a huge testimony for these two outstanding Chinese leaders of the 20th Century 👏 🙌 🎉

LKY knew whats going to happen, thats why he always sought to avoid the inevitable that will arise because of bad decision making. Thats why people get locked up in ISA. On the surface, it seems cruel, but the reality is. Had these people been around to influence the masses, the country would be destroyed or at least made half handicap.

LKY do not want offend his China Host, but the reality is Taiwan is a USA strategic Ally. Taiwan has capability to deal with China . USA already given it High End Missiles System and Top Notch Fighter Jets. Most Importantly , Taiwan Might even have Nuclear Warheads , but they have not made open Declaration . They do have 4 Nuclear Power Stations. North Korea have around 25 Nukes , while USA have few thousands Nukes , yet they do not dare to attack North Korea? NO USA president have ever openly stated that they will not abandon Taiwan... U.S. warns China against Taiwan attack, stresses U.S. 'ambiguity' (Refer below) www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-china-taiwan-idUSKBN26T01W

He makes a great point, but let us not forget that the conventional wisdom was that the US wouldn't intervene in Korea as well, back in 1950. I would never underestimate Washington's willingness to get into a military scrap.

Correction! Sun Yat sen is a Cantonese. Finally, LKY is manipulative and totalitarian politician that brooks no dissent! He was a self-avowed Socialist even during his student days in UK. He won the election on strong Communist sentiment that he played up during election. But when he found out that he had to share power with the Communist, he had them promptly arrested. You certainly need to take some history lesson!

The idea that Deng opened the economy after visiting S'pore and the rest is history (i.e. economic growth) is not correct. After the collapse of the Cultural Revolution and Mao's death, Deng visited many countries (especially in 1978) to learn how to craft a new model. In the end, it was a bottom-up model based on marginal market adjustments, including the breaking up of communes, freeing of certain prices, small enterprises, and reform of SOEs. It was not successful; the high youth unemployment and inflation ended in the Tiananmen Square protests by students and disgruntled workers. Hence, from 1978-89, it was a false start, although it set the road to reform.
