@manofsan Worst kind of traitor? How is Kishore a traitor? Kishore is a Singaporean, so he's not picking sides at all. He just so happens to be speaking the truth that you don't want to hear.

@manofsan 1. Singapore's government is mostly made up of ethnic Chinese and ethnic Indian (mainly Tamil) politicians. This has been the case since independence from the British. So calling it "Chinese run Singapore" not only shows your lack of understanding regarding Singaporean governance but also your disregard to the distinct Chinese culture that exists in Singapore. 2. He's not a "sepoy". Sepoy is an Indian Mughal thing, nothing to do with Singapore. Sepoy/Mughal/North Indian culture is not part of Singaporean Indian culture. He's a Singaporean Sindhi.

@manofsan 1. Singaporean Indians/Tamils have the highest household median income in Singapore. Yes, they make the most money in Singapore. 2. Singaporean society is much better than what exists in other Asian countries. The country manages ethnic diversity really well. 2. Singapore is a democracy. Just because the same political party is voted in all the time does not mean it's a dictatorship. You should research about why the PAP is always voted in. I'll give you a hint it's because they transformed the country into a first world nation and they created an equal society in the aftermath of the ethnic riots.

@manofsan Provided no content? I gave you an entire paragraph explaining the failure of the current Indian government. Pack it up. You know very well that what I said holds substance unlike everything you've said. All you've done the past few days is parrot the same old stuff over and over again. You have no argument. All you can do is throw words around in order to discredit people that you don't agree with. Looks at this, you just called me a bot. You call Kishore a "sepoy" yet provide no counterargument to what he says. Come back to me when you actually know what you're talking about and actually have some proper arguments to make. I'm not interested in borderline petty schoolyard-style arguments.

@manofsan 1. I'm not Singaporean 2. There are other political parties that exist in Singapore. They had an election last year and the opposition party won a notable amount of seats. Make sure you actually understand what you're talking about.

@manofsan 1. Hong Kong is not a country 2. Do you have an issue with Singapore? Just asking because you seem to not like what I'm saying. I think the fact that the opposition appealed to many voters on the basis of anti-immigration is a clear that this is no token party. 3. I know the CCP is not good, I'm not defending the CCP.

@manofsan 1. You're comparing Hong Kong, an SAR of China, to Singapore, a sovereign nation. Your comparison does not make sense in this case. 2. Where does it say that Singapore is a one party ruled state? Where? Tell me where you have gotten this information? You have a very ignorant attitude towards Singaporean politics and Singaporean society. Why are you projecting your obviously incorrect views onto a nation that you don't understand? Yes, freedom in Singapore is more restricted than other countries but Singapore is not a one party ruled state. There is a very specific reason why the PAP constantly gets voted in every year and this is because the PAP is what transformed Singapore from a poor, dilapidated developing port city into one of the most advanced nations in the world. Most Singaporeans still have trust in the PAP (maybe not as much as during the Lee Kuan Yew years) but still nevertheless more than the opposition party. Please, if you're going to criticise Singapore at least get your facts straight. It uses a multi-party system. 3. Kishore is not Chinese and neither am I. This video places focus on India among other things and everything he has said about India is true. Stop talking about China because nowhere in my intitial comment did I speak about China. You have an obsession with that country.

@manofsan I'm not Chinese... I'm just stating the truth. Hong Kong is an SAR of China. Trust me, I don't agree with what the CCP is doing in Hong Kong but that doesn't change the fact that Hong Kong is legally an SAR and not a country. No I just think Kishore is very intelligent and knows what he's talking about. I don't agree with everything he says but his points about India are correct. There you again with the ignorant remarks about Singapore. Why do I even bother?

@manofsan 1. Don't call me a "wumao", I am not supportive of the CCP, never will. 2. I'm talking about Kishore's points about India. What is so hard about these words that you don't understand??? I have told you this multiple times but you keep throwing tantrums. Talk about ignorance. 3. I'm talking about his points on protectionism. India is so protectionist, this is why India is now even behind Bangladesh. By being so protectionist, India failed to join the RCEP and create history. What a disaster.

@manofsan 1. Japan is part of the RCEP 2. You believe in way too much propaganda it's sad. This is why India hasn't progressed and it's disappointing to see India like this because I really like Indian culture 3. What did I say that proves that I support everything the CCP does?? Tell me. Oh wait, you don't have an answer. You're just making stuff up because you don't like what I'm saying 4. India would be thriving if it wasn't using the political system it is currently using. I have come to the realisation that Asian countries do better under a hardline leader or a group of hardline leaders. Had India been run in such a manner then it would have been light years ahead. Why? It's because there wouldn't be so much bickering and didagreement over issues. Nobody would be pulling out the religion card and things would have been enforced and enabled a long time ago. However, that is not the case for India. India is still relying so much on agriculture that it does not have the ability to open itself up to the world because it's not up to the standard of the markets of other countries. It's still stuck in the 1990s and people, like yourself, don't realise this. This is why Bangladesh is ahead of India now. They're following the same economic model of the Asian Tiger economies. No wonder they're called the new Asian Tiger eoconomy. They're doing so well that they have a set target of becoming a developed nation by 2041. Malaysia followed the same model and they also set a target for themselves too and now they're going to become a developed nation later this decade. The whole of Asia is powering ahead and you're still championing protectionism over integration.
