- Dialogue with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Lawrence Wong
Defying the odds and achieving the unexpected - in short, reinventing our destiny as a small state - has been a hallmark of modern Singapore’s success under the leadership of the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew. To mark the 100th birth anniversary of the nation’s first prime minister, the Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities, Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy and the Institute of Policy Studies, National University of Singapore (NUS), are jointly organising the “Reinventing Destiny” conference.

I like Our DPM Mr Lawrence Wong he have Justice fair .I am Poineer Generation.I am not Politician just layman .With his experience and knowledge from my opinion he is good listener .
I am extremely impressed, from Lee Kuan Yew, to Lee Hsien Loong to Vivian Balakrishnan to Lawrence Wong.. Singapore's policy message and planning has remained consistent and on-point from day one. This demonstrates their own long-term planning and continuity
Vivian?? He is just a FM
@@Jkl62200 My entire point is consistent foreign policy messaging and includes Vivian as foreign minister.
@@joseki6644 OK.. but then you miss out Goh Chok Tong, Jayaratnam, George Yeo, Dhanabalan etc etc. Vivian can't hold a candle to anyone of them.
@@Jkl62200 I haven't followed the others much.. Just what came across my screen. Never really watched Goh before, I am not Singaporean. Will check out Jaya Ratnam. Same for Dhanabalan. But I don't know who's etc etc.
George Yeo I have only seen on post-career interviews, he looks a bit lost since losing his seat, not to digress from his content though.. I can see why he was a minister.
And of course Rajaratnam
A series of leading questions seeking to elicit emotional responses are met with calculated, stoic analysis of current reality and facts based responses of the global environment. Kudos to Singapore current Deputy Prime Minister.
❤
It’s nice that a politician and policymaker can succinctly lay out the multitude of considerations to various issues on hand, and not take the easy route to overpromise.
The DPM is in good stead to take on a bigger role.
At least he is well prepared. U wonder if western leaders even know where Indonesia is
He's gonna be a great PM.
I guess he will try his best

@@eye0807 Not really actually, if you study their policies deeply, they are extremely well-crafted. In a perfect world, they would make the perfect team of policy-makers. The real question though, is, when the country comes under serious pressure from foreign entities, will the team still be able to follow their principles or will they end up succumbing to pressure and playing to another's flute?
Thanks you Institute of policy 👍n Thanks you Prime minister Lawrence Wong 👍 😀
All Singaporean is proud to have Mr Lawrence Wong to be our next PM. Really very well presented himself
Not fanciful. Not as a good orator. But slow and steady and super clear minded.
How would you know, kid ?
That ALL ????? Are you ALL, kid ?
GFY !
❤Sing praise cannot lead to Improvements❤
I watch this Zakaria too. Now, I am pleased that he is continuing with our next Prime Minister Mr Lawrence Wong.
Mr Wong will have more and more confident as a 4G leader. No worries, LHL is also a memory bank.
In Singapore, English is our medium of business world. No need translator.
Lawrence Wong, mature and composed, effortlessly grasps the world's pressing issues-a true asset to Singapore.
All I can assure you is the next PM is going to be meeting tons of issues... ...
Interesting era... ... Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha... ...
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha... ...
All the best.
talk is cheap
Proud to have LW as our next PM
Fared Zakaria is trying to trap lawrence Wong in his questioning. I think our DPM is doing well to fence him off.
He does not answer many question. Just a lot of words to basically not say much
As 4G leader leading Singapore may I grow in your care and trust together with the rest of Singaporeans. May I see favour in your eyes and not been left out. God bless.
I see China's future as bright. I say that not because i sm ethnic Chinese, but just being pragmatic.Despite being harrassed and hammer by US and its client states for over 6, 7 years and having huge internal problems to solve at home with 1.4 billion ppl, they did a good job in solving or mitigating the problems. Not easy, but they did it. With such strength, they have a great future.
China's future will be bleak and dysfunctional breaking further and further away from the smooth growth they had experience over the past 40 years . The next 40 years will be extremely difficult for China due to their chosen path to break away from America and the West
WTF has this to do with Singapore ?
@@meganfoxbf
Guess u are not pragmatic at all. Singapore has a pragmatic govt. China has one too, Putin is pragmatic but the rest, well, u can see what their policies are. When u work with pragmatic govt, there will always be trust which will promote economic development, prosperity for all. Now, don't bring those political ideologies thinking into the comments. I don't entertain those ppl.
@@meganfoxbf
Just to emphasise a little bit. In the past, Singapore do big business with all the big boys, EU, US, China. But now, US and EU are in big trouble as the govt are filled up with opportunistic, incompetent, untrustworthy politicians freaks with their own unmovable political ideologies. With such govt, who dare to do business with them?Less trade, less economic development = economic prosperity affected.
@user-nq2sw6sg8q - as if china can be trusted ? how China cheated LKY suzhou project , lock up Singapore military vehicles in a warehouse for weeks hidden from sight ( trying to copy ) . u really think Singapore government do not known what China is doing behind the backs ? xi Jinping do not any more rivals alive today...
I am a convert, I think Larry is the right choice for PM.
He will be even more polished with time. I agree he is a good choice for pm. He will be even more crafty and slippery with CNN and the likes with passage of time. It is the only way to handle BBC and CNN and Bloomberg
@@eye0807 Fareed Zakaria may have come with Western eyes and perspective and asked tough questions, but he was fair and allowed Larry to complete his answers without interruption. I am proud that Larry was able to hold his own and put his points across succinctly and with humor.
Our leaders must learn to take tough questions if they are to represent us internationally (look at how well LKY and LHL take questions from the international press). You improve only when you go through the baptism of fire. Our new leaders should not expect only slowballs and lowballs from the meek & obedient reporters from CNA and ST who are trained / paid to publish only the Govt's side and never to ask any tough follow up questions even if there are huge gaps in the answers given. Our leaders will not get better if they are coddled that way.
I am impressed and have confidence in LW, who can only get better.
//em//.!!¡;;¡;;;//;;//¡;//.
I hope Malaysia gomen listening
Lawrence Wong was Personal Private Secretary ( PPS ) to Senior Minister Lee Kuan Yew, as a young administrative officer, which makes this presentation even more special.
HSK was the Personal Private Secretary ( PPS ) to Senior Minister Lee Kuan Yew, not lawrence wong. LW was the Principal Private Secretary to Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong between 2005 and 2008. which may explain why he's the PM in waiting.
LW well said on the question of making a choice between China or USA side.
41:30 The answer is pretty obvious judging by the laugh in the crowd reacting to an American asking this question, Fareed knows it too hence his humble reaction. Also when Prime Minister talked about Chinese leadership he talked about them being competent and smart technocrats, he did not offer the same kind of generosity towards American leadership.... Very subtle and very diplomatic, offered his viewpoints without being disrespectful or condescending, honestly I cant think of a single western politician being this sophisticated nowadays, everything comes out of their mouth is war, race, gender, sanction and the rest are just pure lies.
This Zakaria always praise LKY. Nothing wrong. Just stating my observations. Where is the value add? He should criticize and flag out any areas for improvement
Somehow I felt Larry is regurgitating what was being fed..I love the way he talks ..like every sentence is a question LOL.
The question from RI students in regards to the migrant workers issue asked the wrong question. Most migrant workers who stay in the dormitory , do not even speak English except their own dialect. Look at Mexico's migration workers in USA would deter Singapore taking them in as PR or bringing in their dependents. It's not just a simple welfare issue for the migrant workers, it is a social stability issue per se.
Good job Larry
If that’s not all, she also asked if President Halimah Yacob is aware of the exact size of the reserves when she made decisions on its drawdown, given that it is the President’s responsibility in safeguarding the National Reserves.
Okay and?
singapre really has alot quality leader
🐰The year of the Rabbit in the Chinese Calendar.

Harris Ng YM 💜💰🇨🇳👍🇷🇺👍🌲🙏🇺🇸🌍🇮🇩🇸🇬🇯🇵🇰🇷👪
The rise of China by believing communism is the basic core that brings them to where they are today is not a blessing to the World
what about their atrocities in India, trying to claim Indian lands in Arunachal Pradesh as their own and claiming Taiwan is theirs? Never trust a dictatorship.

20:15 A small thing, but it's amazing to see the difference between state media interviews and foreign ones. FZ doesn't let LW off the hook when he tries not to answer a question:
LW: Particularly after the recent incidents and the setbacks we have suffered, it's really for us to reflect, learn, and grow stronger from that experience and do everything we can to win the confidence and trust of Singaporeans.
FZ: What did you learn from them?
LW: Well, I believe we we start off actually from a very high base and that high base of trust between the people and the elected government and the PAP is still there, it's still there, so what I... my immediate priority is to see how I can strengthen that reservoir of social capital and trust and ensure that we can continue to earn the confidence and mandate of Singaporeans when we next go to the polls.
FZ: ...What did you learn from this from the various scandals and problems?
LW: ...I would say you know thinking about not just the recent incidents but also the broader experience I've had in government I've learned to have a certain sense of equanimity in government.
As usual, all these foreign media / interviewers especially western media will try their best to corner the interviewee to sing their western song. I m glad that Mr Lawrence Wong gave good response. He just need to learn founder PM Lee Kuan Yew’s skill to turn the table around.
@@leewn2319 Is wanting to know what LW actually learned from the scandals, given that he said that he learned something, "singing a western song"?
Too much of the "correct" narrative and too little answers
they are good at talking, not so much at doing and reinventing
LW did answer the question. In a nutshell - he knows he (and PAP) needs to restore trust and remember that he (and PAP) is not infallible. These sound like learning points to me. Not sure what else the interviewer was digging for.
He is the only PAP minister who speaks rather well without reading paper. Fyi
You are very wrong and biased. Have you watched enough local news? There are ministers who can speak well without referring to papers. Some of them can even give a speech in Mandarin effortlessly. 你会吗？You know meh? 你做得到吗？You can do meh? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@arcencielc2065 He not only speaks well....u don't understand what I am implying.....there is fundamental substance in his mind.
@@arcencielc2065 U are just a frog in a well. U need to be taught by the Lord Jesus Christ where He taught a samaritian woman at the well.

👪👍🍷 Singapore sha
👍🍷Singapore has done well under the governments of LKY, GCT and LHL. It is likely to do
better in the hands of
Lawrence Wong,
SOME GREAT THINKERS
TO BLESS SINGAPORE:
1) We would ask Indonesia to sell us
an island to solve our land
scarcity..
2) We can request Indonesia to build a water
Pipe Line to Singapore, ..
Singapore to pay for the
Construction.
3) The rail from China Laos Vietnam Thailand to
Malaysia and Singapore
should no longer be
delayed.
... Harris Ng YM 👻👍🇨🇳💰🇷🇺💰🌍🇸🇬🇮🇩
Lawrence Wong speaks off the cuff - he has the essential ingredients of a Pm. Lets give him a chance to prove his mettle!
Did IPS pay $$$ to fly in Zakaria? I don't like it. There are other credible people to conduct the interview.
He keeps calling us STATE. We’re a COUNTRY and a NATION.
Please do not forget the bicycles, this cyber space for me is a cycling area, you need to push pedals and connect people some more, like Olympic champions having Singapore partnerships in further 190 countries world wide, please do not feel sorry to use web technologies as you should, from my behalf they are all invited to visit Singapore and find new business opportunities, helping each other like true siblings do, we are a global family by now and ...we are all in this together
From Lee Kuan Yew to Goh Chok Tong to Lee Hsien Loong to Lawrence Wong. I want a new Leader of the house, Speaker of the house, house key and security guards. Ng Eng Hen will provide these.
25:10 Europe & Usa are going to use the same recipes as Russia, Singapore, China: a single party, a President for life, import control, you should be happy?

better than Tharman by a mile
I believe there there will be less of globalisation and more of regionalisation
This guy got some really big shoes to fill into quickly.
感恩分享此非常有意义的论坛。我认为解决国际间与新加坡本土永久问题需靠根本教育。孔子的仁义礼智信就全面提到做人，处世待人与国际交易的心行建设。佛家就强调五戒十善，五戒对自而十善对外。这些根本教育是古今中外不变的原理原则。当此原则逐渐被漫长时间与事项淡化，世界社会与人格就会分裂，信之一字就会产生很难弥铺的裂痕。此优良教育至少迷失将近九十年以上，换句话，九十岁以下不认识彻底，只是个表面模糊不清。所以才会出现贪污，国家政变，军事起义与礼仪，与中美关系与国际联系合作等问题。父母都不懂根何况子女😂
你知道世界上不再理解的事情，但你在这里，我们看到你只是说，然后高兴地笑 🤌🤌🤌

will Lawerence Wong be used by China CCP ?
We are living in a world that the western countries cannot compete as an efficient economy so they cut their nose the spite the face in hoping that active intervention is going help but they will get disappointed and Singapore will suffer because of that. Specifically pointed at Trump's trade policy but the interview is too dumb or scared to admit that.
Haze our specialist are standbys 24 hour's in case our neighbouring countries have Haze problems . The issues we believed can solved as soon as possible......
A small island state that talk loud
University qualifications is very important see Lee hsieng long Harvard university USA 🇺🇸 and Lee Kuan yew Cambridge university United Kingdom 🇬🇧 and Lawrence wong Singapore 🇸🇬 national university of Singapore 🇸🇬 NUS.
How can a carpenter or blacksmith or tailor or actor without education university qualifications succeed as prime minister of Singapore 🇸🇬?
The PAP govt strives to build a better nation. The oppositions, other than lies and deceptions as evident in the recent ridout bungalow case, can contribute nothing to the country.🤣🤣
50 cents, get lost!
Are you paid to post such comments?
How to trigger opposition supporters 101 lol
Had an interesting conversation with a taxi driver( a Workers Party supporter) just 30 minutes ago. 1.LKY built a tunnel from Oxley Rd to Istana for his own use. 2 The next PM after Lawrence Wong will be Lee Hsien Loongs son. 3.He believes Lee Thia Kang n Pritam Singh are very smart people.
2 out of 3 are definitely wrong.
Seriously what is with this people talking to themselves thing. Unlike the past, there is ootube comments here where people can talk to each other and are willing to talk. Jesus someone is going to get blamed for winner's tit4tat again. Here we go.
Tharman is a more enlightened leader with less textbook like politically correct answers
Which makes him the perfect candidate for President.
Tharman was a failure when he was the chairman of MAS !
He lost $30.8 billion !
Nice words. Lots of vision but no plan. "Where's the beef?" No mention if when and how Singaporeans will get a First (Swiss) World standard of lining.
Sounds like you missed the boat
What is the Swiss Standard of Living that you dream of? Can elaborate?
But First World Super Swiss Lifestyle has already arrived for the PAP ministers and MPs more than 20 years ago. Blame yourself peasant and serf Singaporeans.
@@flowertowerrrMost Singaporeans "missed the boat" but I did not because I am a "foreign talent" and have lived in the US, Switzerland and Australia. I have family members in the 3 countries so I can live there for long periods. So I know very well what Singaporeans are missing. They should not put up with high cost of living in Singapore with stagnant wages and over-priced, poor quality flats while the politicians live in good class bungalows and get million $ salaries - the highest on the planet.
@@fintech1378 Held senior posts in the public and private sectors in Singapore. I came to SIngapore in the 1970s as a "foreign talent" and have been a Singaporean for over 30 years. One of the "contributions" is I QUESTION EVERYTHING. I do not go along just to get along. I always speak up. I am always contentious, opinionated, confrontational and competitive but not personal. I do this to "add value" and prevent "group think" which lead to mediocrity.
LIKES 😂😂😂😂😂😂 A HDB BUT INSTEAD A MULTI LEVEL BUNGALOW 🏠
LW has not kept up with the times. To be a Singapore you don't need to a Chinese, Indian, Malay or Eurasians; she or he can be Filiponos, Vietnamese etc with all these naturalisation.
Then the interview will last at least a few more hours longer if he were to name every nationalities or every detail down to the very minute..
@bell-xk5dd He need not name every nationalities, just said instead of the four races previously Singapore now is home to all nationalities over the world.
@@denisechan5992
If you were to hear closely, that’s what he had implied all along...but then there’s also the importance to name the 4 vital core nationalities of Singapore, namely the Chinese, Indians, Malays and the Eurasians...
@bell-xk5dd If you listen again, he did even mention the Eurasians.
Not as eloquent as Tharman but i hope he is the right person for the job.
True, but the most important is still how competent one is and the character he has, ie resilience, tough minded etc. Singapore leaders cannot have the quality of those populist leaders in other parts of the world.
I disagree...I find Lawrence Wong is a better speaker, very knowledgeable, down to earth and definitely more capable...look at the way he led the multi task force during the pandemic, he was doing such an excellent job that proved his mantle to be our future PM ...
when pap encourage pap voters give birth to 10 sons -100 sons for SAF?

The compere speak monotonously, robotically. Not suitable for the topic on innovativeness. She should speak naturally without fear nor favor. Sg students ace the maths and science sibjects but where is her world leading technologies like Tesla, Alibaba, SpaceX? Any country can have inventions. Is it world leading? There is a mismatch between academic results vs real world performance. And who are those into innovation and research and inventions? New citizens? PR from china? Why? Education is a form of regurgitation of Old knowledge. I leave it at here
He came from PAP Primary, Secondary, JC, UNI LOL!😆 A follower cannot be a real leader! A follower will always be a follower.... This is the best SIngapore has to offer?
Let's be real.. a minister like LKY, a true leader, can only be built in a difficult world like that which we had back in the 1940s and 1950s

Ofcourse what do u expect, will uk support their big bro USA or China? Don’t say such stupid things
Explain why you only focus on mass importing in only your yellow race please?
*Singapore being the majority Chinese country will never oppose the communist China and the Xi's dictatorship. Singapore is an authoritarian country anyway. PAP is ruling the country every since independence and the majority of their independence was only ruled by one family.*
Taiwan is also a majority Chinese country. Does it support China?
@@NP1066 Of course, they do not as China wants to invade Taiwan. The moment China decides to invade Singapore, I am sure the Singaporeans will not support China either.
I would like to support Minister Wong and all of Singapore, especially with food security, but we Americans WILL NOT, unless Singapore begins to treat Americans-- that is, OUR expats -- with absolute RECIPROCITY: equal civil and property rights for any Singaporean who has a U.S. green card. Permanent residency should be automatic and a given thing, for the very, very few Americans who would want it. RECIPROCITY is the only guiding principle that will be morally acceptable, from here forward.
Deluded...😂
Every country will start demanding the same thing and treating Singapore like some kind of a refuge..delusional...
@@bell-xk5dd No, each country bilaterally. There are NOT many Americans who would even want to live as permanent residents in Singapore (if it were possible and reciprocal). Use quotas if you are afraid. There's no taking advantage NOW? You mean the 50 MILLION communist Chinese expats who live in other countries with full civil and property rights, non-reciprocally?

Let me tell you, Singapore will only take in the best of the best, the crème de la crème from all over the world. We don’t want garbage from US or anywhere….
@@bell-xk5dd Same here. We don't want any Singaporeans here in the USA. We don't want your pilots out at Mountain Home, Idaho, anymore, with their families, UNLESS there is RECIPROCITY for American expats in Singapore. Two-way treatment or NONE. Not just green cards for Singaporeans, but NONE for Americans.
Agree with bell. Be nice David.
Lawrence does not have the language skills unlike Lee Kuan Yew or Tharman to inspire people. He seems to raise his voice to deliver a point but ends up coming across as trying to cover his weakness. I hope someone helps him improve his English language skills. E.g.
"huge trouble" is better with just "trouble". He's verbose and lacks presence for a global audience.
Lawrence Wong is definitely a better speaker than Tharman . I can easily understand Lawrence. Tharman mumbles too frequently and he has a flat voice that doesn’t inspire commands or interests...
Very Singlish style of talkkng
@@bell-xk5dd Tharman is a more natural speaker than Lawrence.
