Despite being a tiny lost city-state in the middle of Southeast Asia, Singapore is one of the most talked-about and admired countries in the world: for its cleanliness, its efficiency, and its hyper-modern metropolis appeal. Yet it is less frequently talked about how it is that Singapore arrived at its current status as a trade and financial hub, the measures taken by Lee Kuan Yew-the nation's ...

The "zone rouge" (in French, Red Zone) is a noncontiguous area that occupies the northeastern part of France and corresponds to the places that hosted some of the bloodiest battles of the Great War. Originally extending as much as 1,200 km2, over the years, thanks to reclamation efforts, it has been downsized to about 100 km2. Despite this, the subsoil still conceals a disproportionate amount o...

The imminent entry of Sweden and Finland into NATO is likely to mark major geopolitical consequences in the context of the current war in Ukraine.

Cairo 2.0 - the New Super Capital of Egypt
Huh?there are tons of errors in the video. There is not a single street in singapore named after lee Kuan yew. There is not a single statute of him or a painting of him on public display. Indeed public statutes and paintings of political figures is banned. There is a school of government named after him. He agreed for his name to be used after he was persuaded that his name would attract donors. There us a LKY water prize. There are also several scholarships that he funded that are named after him. That's all.
But bro she s 18 in buthan years
And now the hungry china is slowly swallowing some parts of it.
You really have to check your facts man. Shantishikhar is the highest unclimbed mountain in the world which is actually in Nepal.
America's puppets are Mohammad bin Salman, Mohammad bin Zayed, Cici, Abdullah, Nawaz Sarif family, and whole Europe.
Yes, I recall public caning in secondary school, in front of all pupils, a schoolmate got expelled but not the male teacher for intimacy (not sure of its extent) & a cousin expelled for cutting class & calling the teacher "bitch".
How can Singapore not be safe with a father & son who talked & punished like gangsters.

Why the fuck they show POK as part of Pakistan
Trees do not magically "absorb" CO2. A fully grown forrest is about completely CO2 neutral. It does not reduce the global CO2 in the atmosphere.

You seem to be targetting Central Asian states specifically and portraying them extremely negatively. Do you have some kind of agenda, e.g., to pave the way for some kind of "democratic revolution" in these states?
Starting early is simple. The best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. I learnt from my last year’s experience, I was able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time.
A wise person must know that in order to build success, they must invest wisely and have the proper knowledge or guidance in the financial market.
You're absolutely right, to be a successful in life required not only hard work but awareness and sometime opportunity at the moment, investment remains the best way to start.
I agree with you. Investment is the key to sustaining your financial longevity. And not just any investment but an investment with guaranteed return.
yeah investment is the key to sustaining your financial longevity but venturing into any legit investment or business without a proper guidance of an expert can lead to great loss too.
Exactly and many of us don't know where to invest our money so we invest it on wrong place and to the wrong people
bro your jokes are kinda offensive ngl. Like middle school kids joking about bangladesh or saying you dont care about pronounciation
Fun fact that i wish you had included: Bhutan has a very special relationship with the University of Texas at El Paso, to the point that the entire campus is designed to look like traditional Bhutanese buildings, has a sanctioned Bhutanese shrine in its main plaza, receives yearly visits from Bhutanese monks who come and perform ceremonies, AND any qualifying Bhutanese international applicant student is granted admission if they wish to attend.
not the eastern pak... unprovoked
Sounds like a very good place to live where people have to RESPECT OTHERS. If force needs to be applied to achieve results then the west has something to learn from Singapore. Lets ask western population if they are happy with their politicians
recommended after seeing reallifelore
As a person who has a friend which is bhutanese cool video ig
please, as a Singaporean, there is nothing dystopian about Singapore. take your decrepit western values elsewhere, and enjoy your high violent crime rate while you're at it.
It's not true UN can't do anything. It can allow or deny a member to start war, for instance. If they don't authorize, the member country can start a war anyway, but may be rigorously punished by being put in the "UN wall of shame".
The DR side has shown that Haiti can change for the better of the people. DR was also once occupied by USA, but here’s the key. Their political class came together to form a political process with elections and they play by such elections, so no more chaos. With that comes peace, with peace comes investments and jobs for people. The model to follow is right next door, but the freaking Hatian politicians are all thieves. They all want the cake for themselves. They have no love for their people. Yet Hatians don’t see it. They think it is France from 250 yrs ago or the US from 100 yrs ago
I heard the situation in Yemen is complicated but I didn’t expect this much 😮😮😢 I need to watch this video couple more times to fully understand. It’s so sad to see Yemenis going through the toughest times. May Allah help them reach good days where they will have peace and prosperity ❤
western countries with so much freedom that it's become chaos and dangerous in major cities. We should learn from singapore.

يا حسرتاه! لقد عانينا نحنُ اليمنيون من الحرب العالمية وما تلاها من صراعات، هاجمنا تحالف من الدول بما في ذلك: * السعودية * مصر * المغرب * الأردن * السودان * الكويت * الإمارات العربية المتحدة * قطر * البحرين * روسيا * بريطانيا * الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية * فرنسا * إيران * تركيا لقد كانت هذه حقًا فترة صعبة علينا اليمنيون، لا يمكن مقارنة نضال اليمن مع صراعات الدول الأخرى التي تنطوي على عدد أقل من الأطراف المتحاربة. عاش الشعب اليمني في جحيم حقيقي.

Dude accidentally made an ad for why you should move to singapore XD ngl as someone who actually lives in an authoritarian shithole, i would 10/10 pick singapore. I am immensely impressed by them, and this just attracted me to the country so much more.
1/3 of the explanation I lost the plot. What a crazy situation. It seems some people really love war.
Thanks for your video. I believe your channel will get banned soon.... lol🤣....just kidding. I've already lived half of my life and I must tell you that I am a happy and grateful citizen of Singapore. Our late founding father of modern Singapore, Mr Lee Kuan Yew had made remarkable contributions to Singapore and I firmly believe all that he did benefitted the citizens. He is a great man. This is all evident when you visit Singapore. I feel safe when I walk on the streets or when I come home late at night, or when I drive out to take a stroll on the beach at 3 am in the morning. Are you sure about information at 4.01 ? We have Ministry of Manpower here and these foreign workers can lodge complaints to the ministry if there are abused. The ministry take complaints very seriously. The interests and well being of foreign workers are all safe guarded by the Ministry of Manpower and any employers who flout the law will have their business license suspended pending investigation. Even housing and living conditions for foreign workers are regulated to prevent over crowding, fire hazards and spread of diseases.
Yeah show india in 2024 and puts an image of people from 1990s , the western superior complex never fades , bunch of crooked mfs.
😮😮😮😮
very interesting 🤔🤔 A very similar greenhouses are in Crete at the other side of Mediterranean sea !
Use correct Indian map 🇮🇳
Yes!!! 12:07 It is POSSIBLE that a police officer can bust into your home to give you a fine if you expose yourself. They'll TOTALLY send a SWAT team, bust your door, throw in a couple of flash-bangs, wrestle you to the ground, and put the nicely folded $2000 ticket in your underwear, near where your butt crack is. They even spank you a few times to make sure you've learned your lesson. Happens all the time! I was laughing so hard, this video should be in the comedy section. Viewers should really be careful with what is presented in this video. So many things are taken out of context, exaggerated or just outright false. For example, Jolovan Wham was never caned, and he went to jail for a few days because he choose to refuse to pay the small fine as a political "statement".
i'll take a safe and clean country with more laws. Europe and US are authoritarian anyway, they just pretend they're not
