Comments by "K `" (@user-jt3dw6vv4x) on "How Singapore Got So Crazy Rich" video.
Singapore has other political parties. People vote in elections. It's not a one-party state. The difference is that Singaporeans have so much trust in the PAP (the party that transformed Singapore into a developed nation) that they continue to vote for it. They know the PAP is the party that can maintain prosperity in Singapore.

@containedhurricane China is NOT democracy, Singapore is a democracy with elections.

A lot of countries say they could've been like that but they didn't. That's because they never had the right forward thinking leaders that believed in things like meritocracy.

@containedhurricane because people vote for the PAP all the time. I already explained it in my previous comment. No, it's not similar to China at all.

Public housing in Singapore is not like public housing in your country. There is a HUGE difference.

@watch1981 People calling Singapore a dictatorship, don't know what a dictatorship is. If Singapore is a dictatorship, I would like to know what people think North Korea, Turkmenistan and Eritrea are?

@NewmaticKe Lee Hsien Loong is not a dictator. There was literally an election in Singapore in 202 in which Lee Hsien Loong won, he's just stepping down from the role now. EDUCATE YOURSELF!

@dylanpt2220 Yeah it is a democracy, maybe look up what democracy means

The migration of Malaysian workers and other Asian nationalities to Singapore to work is something that happened largely after the country's economic transformation. More affluent countries need workers, it's happening all over Asia - even Thailand uses labour from Myanmar and Cambodia. Idk why you're clutching pearls right now.

@watch1981 You don't know what a one party state is then.

@dylanpt2220 Argentina, the next Singapore but not Vietnam??? HAHAHAHAHAHA part of the success of Singapore is because it followed Asian principles or what Lee Kuan Yew called "Asian values". Since when is Argentina an Asian nation??

@NewmaticKe These non-Asians come here and start calling Singapore a dictatorship, I'd love to hear what they call civil war-riddled Myanmar led by Min Aung Hlaing if they think Lee Hsien Loong is a dictator

It's funny how people call Singapore's government a dictatorship, it shows that they don't know what an actual dictatorship is.
