China in Europe’s Future and Europe in China’s Future - A keynote speech by George Yeo https://youtu.be/PEbsmzOA5Hs

The most insightful message by Yeo is "watch the full video, not just a few snapshots, before drawing your conclusion"! Unfortunately, quite a few making comments here did not seem to get the message. In this easy media era where snapshots are abundant but full videos lacking, people seldom have the patience to watch full videos. Very often I hear comments about China from those who clearly have no idea what China is like and are simply repeating what they read from Western media. There is no exception here.

I'm a Taiwanese. Taiwan, its formal name Republic of China, is a province of China. Republic of China governs the Province of Taiwan, and part of Province of Fujian (Kinmen), which is only 3 km away from Mainland China. Taiwan has been a province of China and a part of China for centuries since the Qing Dynasty, for longer than the history of the U.S.

It's rare to let someone speak with a positive vision of China.I see some people are upset about it in the comments. I have seen many people speak against China without any challenge most of the time, if not all the time
-
I always admire diplomats from Singapore. Like George Yeo, they are clear minded, full of wisdom and analyse situations in a calm and impartial way. Thank you Alex to bring George on the platform.

I watched the whole video throughout my dinner, enjoyed it thoroughly. 😊

I'm a Chinese and I think Mr. Yeo presented the most vital approach to understand China, which is through history. One can not understand China without taking historical element into account, because history has been playing a important, if not the most important role in China's government, foreign affair, commerce, much more.

Thanks Alex for the very informative interview with Mr. Yeo. I really enjoyed listening to this conversation.
-
Singapore officials, like this one, are always a two cuts above the typical bureaucrats you find in gov't.
-
Thank you George Yeo! 👍🙏🙂
-
His Catholic Church analogy is spot on. But, I think neither the CPC nor the Church like this comparison. Great interview.
-
Would b good to do an interview with Taiwanese leader also. If opinion of someone who plays both sides matters, someone in the middle of the conflict should matter too?

Salaam Geirge Yeo
Such clarity and grasp of geopolitical realities and possibilities -
Very intelligent conversation in the time that anti China is a business.
