There are violence against Asians going on in the World and it's just silence from China. They are not even saying Chinese lives matters? Surely they should say something, isn't it? In their mind, propaganda wars against the World using Xinjiang cotton is more important at this stage. Look at this: https://mobile.twitter.com/shijianxingzou/status/1375120453304512516?fbclid=IwAR1oU2GjShDY9eKRn68WKPQUNJRUAMXzu3NevmttUvixnR9AnPdhUN3vJUc A Chinese lady actually believed the propaganda and went to protest outside H&M and got roughed out by the police. China is also like Singapore... Usually taking a Neutral approach.... Though China and Russia are seen to be taking less sanctions approaches on "rougue states" Taking a non-interfering approach is also because they feel is other domestic affairs...

USA and Japan (vassal state to US) are the economic top dogs. USSR was the main ideology enemy - and they never had any economic influence. So actually LKY don't really need to choose much - of course just listen to the west. If put him in current situation, he may also struggle to balance. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like being asked, "You love Papa or Mummy?" We need both sides.... You see our strengths of RSAF(USA), where we get our military wares for Navy (EU) , where did we train......(AUS, USA, FRA, GER) Who is our biggest trading partners.... Who are biggest investors.....

I don’t believe it is not an aggressor This one I can't comment. But if we see how our neighbours see SG as an aggressor because our assets can easily deter a Couple of neighbours assets combine.... Asking why SG has such high firepower with such a small state...... Our explanation is we are a strong and mighty deterrence force. Which China was positioning themselves..... with exception to Taiwan..... Planning an all out war if TW should declare independence...
