In 1964, PAP took part in the Malaysia Election and won one seat of Bungsar with the same logo of 'a circle and a dangerous lightning' for it does not strike at the same point twice. Today, we have 'a killer lightning' even under the shelter of an umbrella.
Copycat’s 😂😂😂 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Just a point of note. Most countries that place a term limit on their head of government have a presidential or a semi-presidential system. Singapore, on the other hand, and also Germany (since you mentioned its ex-Chancellor), have a parliamentary system. As far as I know, and I am ready to stand corrected, parliamentary systems do not typically place a limit on their Prime Minister's term. Although, again as far as I am aware, there is nothing stopping a parliamentary system from setting such a limit. But there is no right or wrong about this. It is mostly just different traditions, and different beliefs about different political set ups. I know that this is not the main point of your entire video. But just thought I should mention it, since people might not realise that the USA and France are not parliamentary systems.
Thanks, I did not realize that!
The USA doesn't actually have term limits on presidencies. George Washington served two terms and it just became tradition for any president to not serve more than two terms. Except in unique situations, like WWII when Roosevelt had a 3rd term.
The 22nd Amendment of the US Constitution specifies term limits on the President.
@@weiwenleung Who'd-a-thunk..Thanks for the info!

While this video was the product of a lot of effort, the video is ultimately just my opinion (when I made the video). Feel free to come to your own conclusion. In fact, I'd rather you disagree with me thoughtfully than agree with me uncritically.
Look at that Face total evil
No insult meant, singular words don't equal contents. Contents are the substance of the words put together.🙏
Happy to continue to try to work things out. To me, Wong's and Obama's speeches both have similar substances e.g. 1. Both their speeches mention that long-term thinking is important (as opposed to Liz Truss' short-term thinking, for example) 2. Both their speeches mention that it's important to keep old ideals while trying new ideas 3. Both their speeches mention that building global relationships is important (as opposed to Trump, whose had protectionist policies) May I have your thoughts?
His speech is OK. Obama's speech was full of "BS" and if you do a scorecard, he did not achieve most especially racial equality for blacks. Obama also initiated the "contain China" strategy which he also failed, they need China to bail the global economy out of the GFC. Obama is a great orator...but a failure in many key areas. Nothing, PM said in his speech was spectacular as the world especially SE Asia knew the need to balance the 2 giants at our door steps; Singapore deemed very Pro-US in the eyes of China (a hole, we have dug). On the home front, Singapore has several domestic issues we all know: migrant workers, jobs for locals, inflation, property prices, etc. All these are work in progress...which is why we are paying our ministers are so well paid to do. So like someone here commented; "standard speech" ...I agree but Wong add a more personal and people touch to it than any speech by former PM Lee Hsien Long (which you should compare to, Obama is a eloquent orator and huge EQ)
What do we expect Lawrence Wong to say?
Don't expect anything from Lawrence Wong just CDC voucher only same old trick if u wan u try ask ur CPF he will push back all the way to Howe Yoon Chong policy
Why is a similar philosophy important? Policies that are good for the US aren't necessarily good for Singapore. What's more important is the underlying way of thinking e.g. sticking to core values, while experimenting with new things.
Bullshit Obama to talking sign up with me,2009 not telling me,,when I opened myself on 2014, don't talk about sign up,and Obama and Vietnamese makes the control stopped my decision everything, always decided to troublemaker with Vietnamese people who always said partner but they makes my life and everything can't working and stopped my ways ,I don't get everything support from Obama and Vietnamese people, I don't get sellary from them ,I support my digital data money for everyone and their give me back free as same dodo energy electricity bill for free , Vietnamese cut off my energy electricity and changed in another AGL energy electricity to control my everything and makes the problem trouble my life , everything on decided to control my on hands business account steal and troublemaker, not the partnership,but I support Obama glasses companies on all the world and medical centres in country , that's my owner support digital data money on my way ,not about theirs owner way , Everything Obama and Vietnamese people in 2020, when I grows up my big business ,then their steal my everything account and decided bullshit talking way on my way partnership and everything on America president Trump comes on to steal way in stealers Hung Pham steal my account everything , then they moved my account in to theirs owner hand and changed the meaning with their owners support me , because every minute Vietnamese restaurant and Optus control my accounts business and moved my account with my support people with my digital data money on my business dating sites girls and administrators into stealers Vietnamese and cow people with his daughter , I and they different working way and not in the system business account, this big problems they steal from my account everything and behind talking with my support worker and administrators they moved on theirs on hands , Vietnamese stealers big bullshit decide bullshit talking way on after America president Trump comes on to steal and Australia president government order for everyone Australians download and steal my names account business to sales and shared my personal private owner business dating sites girls ,then they behind talking with my dating sites girls my business on theirs owner way, this is big lies times comes on in 2020 years they are decided to control bullshit talking want to steal my everything account to give Australia government with trouble my life and my personal private owner business account they steal on hands , Vietnamese the big bullshit talking and called Obama came to Australia last year to decide bullshit way talking my owners in theirs owner way. Vietnamese stealers the big lies ,big bullshit talking behind me every time to changed. History results quickly and delivered everything evidence to talking bullshit way talking ..
I don't think they were all that similar. There are some broad similarities in certain areas, but those are more due to thematic convergence, for want of a better term, just as F1 cars look similar due to aeronautical considerations. Also, I don't view Obama highly, far too much of a coward to challenge entrenched interests, more interested in being fawned over by the glitterati. He's the main reason Trump got elected, because he was such a failure that the majority gave up on standard politics. But that's a whole other discussion. Anyway, I wish PM Wong and Singapore all the best in these challenging times.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Indeed, my video focuses on the similar themes. However, thematic convergence doesn't nearly always occur. In my video, I gave three examples of leaders that diverged from Obama and Wong. And there are many more :)
One is a true leader🎉 The other one is just a trusted lieutenant of the old establishment 😅
Not showing your thick bushy eye lashes anymore?
I'm just experimenting with different kinds of video :)
No way obama can be compared with Lawrence Wong. obama is a closet muslim and was trying to get USA more islamic during his term.
Aiyah, hello, this is standard political speech. My fellow citizens, i am humbled to serve all citizens, even those who vote against me. I will listen to every one of you. Amen.
In my video, I included three examples of leaders who took different approaches. And there are more.
Both wore tie 😂
Nahhhhhhhh
You gotta to be kidding! No where near in contents and delivery!
You are correct. The content and delivery are different. However, my point is that the messages are the same.
@weiwenleung if contents are different, the messages can't be the same. I do think PM Wong is a good change for Singapore, we can't have families running a country otherwise cronyism will manifest.
@@rogerchung260 We may have a different definition of "content" and "message". My definition of "content" is the words used, and "message" means the high-level principles.
1st time is original, 2nd time is plagiarism.
Being receiving the privilege of my father ancestors I humbly have the country of Singapore affairs put into my heart.
Perhaps his speech-writer took reference from Obama's speech?
Teleprompters around to help obama
How can you compare Lawrence Wong to Obama our PM salary is million Obama is only 400 thou and Obama have to look for Osama our PM don't have to look for anyone just play guitar

Singh prime minister. It's a joke
He's authoritarian,micro/macro manager in a sense...but wouldn't think him a dictator. I mean...he was from labour/action party and built a state run like a business answering to shareholders who are all the citizens
That's your opinion. Anybody can publish their opinions online but are opinions facts? Everyone has to decide for themselves. Ya ya. you are getting lots of attention by placing something controversial.
Agree, this video is just my opinion. And opinions are not facts. Indeed, everyone should decide for themselves. I would rather viewers disagree with me thoughtfully than agree with me without critical thinking.
Good approach. I fear that many of the policies would not fly in the US because of "personal rights". We have evolved into a nation that cannot help our lowest.

❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤 Its nice to see a better approach. What is the stance on marijuana? Is it considered the same as hard drugs for example?
You made my day! Marijuana is illegal. My understanding is that the maximum penalty for consuming marijuana is 10 years jail, similar to drugs like heroin or cocaine. Note: I have no comment on what substances (if any) should be legal.
@@weiwenleung if you had an opinion on this, could it mean problems for you? sadly, I have never been there, so I have no clue. maybe the expectations are different.
It's just not appropriate for me to comment on that issue at this point of time.

Thanks so much! :)

The only reason there's all this talk about Vancouver being a lawless dangerous city recently, is because on the election is coming up and are using that as a way to undermine the liberal government. Vancouver is a pretty damn safe city overall. I hate how right-wing supporters have slandered and ruined Vancouver's image basically online. Everyone thinks it's a hell hole. They have videos of people going up and down East Hastings which is only like a two block area. 98% of the city is absolutely beautiful. With Parks everywhere and it's just a shame. Some people actually do believe it's dangerous because of that. They don't know what a real dangerous city is like. Vancouver is wonderful.
To clarify: I am not saying that there are no public order concerns in Vancouver. I am saying that the viral claims are nowhere near true. Especially the claim about Canada being lawless. Canada is ranked 12th for rule of law by the World Justice Project, which surveys experts and the public globally to rank countries. Is Dr Tracey saying that only 11 countries have laws? (And also, Vancouver is a very small part of Canada)
You aren't wrong, but a lot of Max's concerns are valid. I live in Vancouver, and I'm so sick of seeing these people smoking drugs in public, being arrested and released on the same day, breaking into my building and my car....and it's just getting worse.
Not bad though overall. It's going to be the same in any metropolis city you live in. And what do you mean people smoking drugs? On East Hastings sure. On granville? Maybe on the occasion you'll see someone. 98% of the rest of the city? It's pretty rare to see that. I do Uber Eats 90 hours a week. Yes 90 hours a week in vancouver. I drive all around the city basically all day everyday. I just don't see the issues you're seeing, maybe I'm just more tolerant to them and let the occasional sighting of that stuff slip by my subconscious. In fact in all my hours of doing Uber Eats in this city I don't even think I've witnessed one crime taking place one fight, or anything like that really. Never had my car broken into. I'm not saying it doesn't happen it's just not a relatively big issue in Vancouver. If you go to some cities in the states it'll make Vancouver look like such a cakewalk
I am sick of drug needles at the park my kid wants to go to
Me too. Also saw someone shooting up right by a daycare. How is this acceptable.
He’s not completely wrong actually. The police investigate themselves so human trafficking, assaults and robberies are very commonplace. More so than many other countries. I’ve witnessed many such crimes first hand and often little or nothing is done. Also crimes by minorities are almost exclusively pursued. There are criminals in jail though they are about 90% foreign or non-white individuals. The canadians do not record their prisoners properly and often label black and Hispanic as white so this is inaccurately reflected in their ‘official’ statistics. Also there is a massive homeless problem masked again by inaccurate recording. They only use people on ei and other social benefits to track that number and it’s only a tiny fraction of the actual homeless. Still that number is at 6% or the same as Sudan on of the most poverty stricken areas in the world. canada really isn’t that great of an area to live especially as a visible minority where you have almost zero human rights. They are great at media campaigns however and give a false impression of a safe community.
