Lee Kuan Yew - Sage of Singapore
Manage episode 259931527 series 2441409
Lee Kuan Yew was the founder of modern-day Singapore. He took Singapore from third world to first in one generation. His candour in analysing other counties such as the UK, US & China is incredibly insightful.
So here is what you are in for the next 45 minutes of your life. I want to look at:
- Who was Lee Kuan Yew? What was the back story to Singapore we see today?
- What were his principles and guiding philosophy of pragmatism and meritocracy?
- Considering Singapore famously had no real assets how does it now rival the US in GDP per capita?
- What did he think about the demise of the UK after WWII, can BREXIT learn from Singapore and the future of the United States.
- Given his position of respect by the Chinese politburo, what can he tell us about China?
- What are the criticisms of his authoritarian control of the state?
