How Lee Kuan Yew aka LKY turned around Singapore in a simple way --- by de-facto handing it over to British !!! And effects --- Singapore was less than $ Christian in 1960 and now its 20% Christian, and whole economy of Singapore is now under British, American, Japanese and European companies.
.
In 1920s, British developed a technqiue to promote leaders who would speak big time against British , but would take steps that would be highly beneficial to British. Duratma Gandhi was the most well product in this category. His speeches were virulently anti-British . Hearing such speeches will vent out anger of Indians , but actions of Duratma Gandhi would convert them Indians into harmless slogan shouters and harmless social workers.
.
Later , the technique evolved to promoting leaders whom superficially,m West would oppose and the leader would also maintain anti-Western posture. But his economic policies will favor Western interets to the extent that locals will become un-industrialized. But it was necessary that West appears as someone who is stopping that leader and people think that leader is coming ahead despite opposition of West !!!
.
LKY aka Lee Kuan Yew was one such leader. An anti-West posture, and West also showed occssisonal displeasure. And West would also create show that West is trying to weaken LKY. But all along, LKY and West did immense benefit each other !! And LKY benefitted West to the extent that his policies completely de-insutrialized Singapore.
.
Singapore today is nation of corporate headquarters and traders ONLY. There is NO manufacturing in Singapore, forget weapon manufacturing. Compare this with Israel, which has massive weapon manufacturing as well as manufacturing base.
.
The key points to notice in history of Singapore from 1960 onwards was --- what stopped Malaysia and Indeonesia from taking over Singapore 50-50 ? The answer is --- westeren powers. The Western powers manipulated leaders leaders of Malaysia as well Indonesia from inside , and provided a de-facto military over to Singapore to ensure its protection.
.
Later , Western powers and Japan 's economic operations grew in Asia. But all of them were afraid of Military coup and / or communist revolutions in those countries. So they all needed a safe place to keep headquarters and Singapore became the safe choice (and second choice was Hongkong).
.
LKY practically "outsourced" everything --- from policymaking to operations. The Western companies converted Singapore into a city better managed than any city West.
.
So whats wrong?
.
Such "giving away" comes with price. The first price is that foreign capital replaces local religions with foreign religions --- no exceptions , no mercy. NaMo-andhbhagats and RSS-workers who go gaga and dance like cheerleaders on FDI rising numbers deliberately evade discussion on this highly uncomfortable truth !! Singapore was less than 4% Christian when LKY tookover in 1960s and now it is over 20% Christian. And growth is "more than 16%" because Christians have LESSER birthrate !!! For rest, pls google on numbers.
.
Next was --- Western companies finished local manufacturing, and completely finished local weapon manufacturing. Singapore doesnt make gun and doesnt even make bullets or even one gram of gun-powder. Singapore doesnt make any cars or even tyres. Everything is best quality --- but everything is imported.
.
The MSE = maths / science / engineering education is high --- but in absence of real manufacturing growth science / maths education is pure academic aka hollow only. Like it or not, it is cut throat competition in manufacturing and operations which gives cutting edge to science / maths / engineering college graduates. Without real hands on experience in dog eat dog competition, maths / science / engineering skills of college graduate are similar to karate skills of someone who has seen all Bruce Lee movies 10 times, but never entered a ring.
.
But then, why didnt West killed MSE = Maths / Science / Engineering education in Singapore after it took over? West did kill MSE education in Philippines. The reason is --- West needed Singapore to remain buoyant otherwise movement to merge with Malaysia would have strengthened. But once West manages to destroy Malaysia , which it will do after West managed to destroy China, they will convert Singapore into a sub-sahara economy. And Singaporeans wont be able to stop the downhill ride, because they are NOT in control of their economy anymore,
.
Solution?
.
We in India have enough problems that we in India should NOT spend brains and bytes to work out solutions of other countries. So I will skip this part.
.
But lesson from Singapore is plain old and simple --- foreign capital never does any long term good. And so RSS-workers who go around praising FDI are plain wrong. The solution is to improve LOCAL industries using same methods as USA --- Right to Recall, Jury System, broad based election of 50+ officials instead of appointments, wealth tax, no vat / gst et. etc .
