Thank you so much for featuring my question in your video sir. Keep up the great work!
bro how did your question got taken? Did you submit in chat via donatin or you emailed?
Hi sir.Are you living in Singapore from childhood or went there for job

The dialect of Kannada we speak at home is chock-full of Sanskrit words. Seriously, we need to revive Sanskrit. Not later but now. Jai Bharat! 💪🇮🇳🙏🕉
It will soon
Mattur (or Mathoor) is a village in Shivamogga district near the city of Shivamogga in Karnataka state, India, known for the usage of Sanskrit for day-to-day communication, although the general language of the state is Kannada.
Sanskrit can be revived only if we start learning it voluntarily. If a large population of Bharat learnt Sanskrit eventually the whole nation would have to adapt to it. #BeTheChange. Don't wait for the government to pass a law.
When Hindu Constitution placed ?

He banned Narcotics and kept the death sentence. This is key for development!
Essentially he stamped our vagrant behaviour

I agree completely with u Abhijit. Eventually people will realise our culture & Dharma.

He ruled Singapore under an Iron Fist Rule which made that country to prosper in trade, economy, health and education of people. And it is easy to control small country like Singapore unlike India which is a very big country compared to it. He made all the political opposition illegal but he made sure that people got the right education which made the country prosper. You can't have democracy and prosperity at the same time.
Western slavery democracy destroyed Indian economy so democracy is not good for poor nations anywhere in the World... Democracy means corruption and no law and order
India never had communism and socialism....In communism and socialism any nations can develop very fast because there is no exploitation and corruption in Communism and socialism....India had feudalism political system(corruption and loot political system) after independence so India is a broken nation(failed nation now)
@@jonsonben8728 Aww, seems lik you have just passed Twitter University. Best of luck with your 'facts'
heir STEM education has been completely Destroyed.
Their Domestic Industrial Manufacturing has been Completely Vanished and now only Videshi MNCs are Ruling.
The US military take care for their External Threat against Malaysia.
And you think that he Prosper Singapore😂😂😂😂
That's complete bullshit. Democracy and prosperity are not mutually exclusive.
Singapore is not an economy at all. It's a trade outpost.
And a technologically powerful private army to defend the interests of the trade post
I will take it anyday over a third world country
@@varun2250 Fool it's the US military who Protect Singapore 😂😂😂😂.
If tomorrow all US Corporate withdrawal out from Singapore.
There will be Sudden Rise of Poverty and can't even defend themselves from the Invading Force of Malaysian Navies.
Hahaha
I will rather live there then Living in the Country whose Constitution is credited to the Mediocre Overhyped British slave who couldn't even win the election from his Constituency and has now Fucked every single High IQ upper caste people.

India followed communism whereas Singapore Lee Kuan followed Capitalism. We discouraged businesses as Nehru used to say "Profit is a dirty word", whereas Lee Kuan invited business with red carpet.
We did not follow communism. In communism , no private ownership is allowed, all are collective...like u saw in the USSR. Here, we also had feudal lords and elites and limited private sectors.
What we followed were worst forms of socialism and capitalism unlike Nordic nations which followed best form of socialism and capitalism.
India mainly took socialism as "Government control" instead of government support such as by social welfare: high quality free education & healthcare for all from grassroot level, investments in infrastructure, keeping all important aspects under government ownership...
Lee Kuan focused on a combination of social democracy and state capitalism: 70% of Singapore lives in public housing, most study in government schools...compare it with highly unequal India.
We followed fabian socialism
India never had communism and socialism ....In communism and socialism any nations develop very fast....India had feudalism(corruption and loot after independence) so India is still a poor nation
@@jonsonben8728 bla bla bla. Soviet Union had worst economy from 1920s to 1940s. China had worst economy from 1950s to 70s.
Corruption in India mainly started after insanely high taxes and red tapism. Indira had imposed a 90%+ tax at one time. That's when black money and black economy started. Who will pay 90% tax?
@@therationalwing and that's why I said, Today India is India.
And Singapore is Completely get Sold by USA.
Their Defense Sectors is Finished.
The US military Protect Singapore against Malaysian Navy.
Their STEM subjects has been Completely Destroyed.
Their Domestic Manufacturing Industry has been taken by Foreing Corporate.
And in the end Just only Become a Head-Quarter of Corporate MNCs instead of Industrial Hub just like China, Russia or Western World.
Do you wanted India to be Like Singapore or Saudi Arab who will be Complete Puppet to USA???
fun fact: you can learn sanskrit yourself using sanskrit swayam shikshak and be the change you want to see.
Thank you for the source. I never knew such a source existed.
Singhapur is very small, it's also a reason for it's development.
Singhapuram.
There are many small country not all are developed also it's developed without any resources where as middle East has abundance of resources oil
@@TheWorldTeacherit Singapore dum ass
Thank you very much sir! It's always grateful to listen to you!!
Lee Kuan Yew is one of the very few Chinese people I genuinely respect. He is proof that dictatorships CAN be benevolent.
Criminal Western media demonized good nationalist leaders as dictator...
@@jonsonben8728 You're right. Stay based. lol
But the thing is that it takes very little for dictatorships to descend into long lasting madness.
LKY destroyed Singapore Completely and make Singapore a Complete Vassal of USA.
Their STEM Education has been completely . destroyed.
Their R&D has Been Completely Destroyed.
They don't have any Local Manufacturing Industry, it's completely Dominated by Foreign MNCs.
And the USA military Protect Singapore from Malaysia.
@@gatikgarg4007yeah. That’s what west made us believe
He promised us something different and here it is, excited for the videos this year!......just kidding , keep up the good work
Bharat (India ) must have (One Party System ) & strong-stable govt at centre &state to witness rapid (economic- technological ) development in 20-30 years.🇮🇳🚩
By Selling acres of Land, PSUs and RBI to Americans MNCs????
Just like how Singapore Dictator had done????
Commie
Keep this crap with you!
We are a very large country, The largest supernation.
Whole Bharat will become like bihar, Bihar had stable government for 15+15 years.
If you see him as a dictator, then he was the only dictator in history that doesn't take the lives of his opponents. Rather he was a director.
Lee Kuan Yew was a statesman, and every inch he deserves that title.
He Deserves Capital Punishment, who sell his Nation to USA Crony Capitalist MNCs.
Their STEM education had been Completely Destroyed.
The USA military Take care for their External threats.
Their Domestical Manufacturing Industries has been Completely Vanished.
And have a Complete Western Countries Monopoly on Complex Industrial Manufacturing Sectors.
Sanskritised Hindi can easily connect all regional languages.
95%of all Bhartiya language have Sanskrit connection.😑😑😑
Rajnish Osho gave great sermons that India soul is caged and Mahatma Buddha tried very hard to change people way of thinking . Osho on Ambedkar by Himashu Maurya is good one to watch.

End of Story..
The US military Protect Singapore against Malaysia.

Their Domestic Industry especially Manufacturing Industry has completely Vanished and Videshi MNCs had taken .
In the end Singapore doesn't become Industrial Complex Hub but only a Head-Quarter of Various Corporate MNCs.
is this video a reupload or is this topic already taken up. Its really weird that i felt like rewatching THIS....THE DEJAVU EFFECT LOL
Kishore Mahbubani - former Singapore representative to the UN - mentions 3 things as pillars of transformation. One of them is pragmatism - adoption of what works over a certain narrative. Money talks or I should say prosperity. So while it is a nation that is prosperous, you don't really feel the presence of a nation or civilization there. I have lived there 15 years ago. So is pragmatism the right way for Bharat? I would say we are already very pragmatic. When it comes to money, we would have no problems taking it from or giving it to anyone who can do the job. It's part of why Indians do so well all over the world. When it comes to social and political narrative though, I don't see us easily unifying under one umbrella - language or narrative. The problem these days is that narrative seems to get in the way of work and progress. It is that way in the US today but the US of the mid 90s when I was there was not that way. They were also very pragmatic back then (of course that was just after the world has stabilized under one pole)
One thing to correct here He was not a dictator , he won all the votes and public support. Despite Singaporean’s now speaking english, he learned all languages to address his public in the early years.
#AskAbhijit sir currently I am in class 10. I have to take a subject for entering the 11th. But my case is like I am fond of maths but highly interested in international politics (geopolitics). Which path should I pave to be significant in both of my interest. (I would like to thank you sir bcuz you introduce me to this larger picture of world which became my primary interest)
Take Sci then. Be a Meghnad Saha. He was an astrophysicist but was too much interested in outside matters as he dreamt of an Industrialised India and ended up having conflict with Nehru and contributing to various national projects with the help of science.
He said he never thinks himself as a politician but he wants to be useful to his country is some way. He was from a very poor family. Read about him. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meghnad_Saha
Scientists have their sayings in national & international matters too. Sagan,Bill Nye, Sam Harris are some few international examples. Even I would add Einstein & Oppenheimer too. Einstein wrote, "Why Socialism " book.
India never had communism and socialism....In communism and socialism any nations can develop very fast because there is no exploitation and corruption in Communism and socialism....India had feudalism political system(corruption and loot political system) after independence so India is a broken nation(failed nation now)
Trust me ...take maths. Read International politics on your own. Humanities education will ruin you.
#AskAbhijit,Who is a better transformer according to you among them?
Joseph Stalin, Attatürk, Lee Kuan, Fidel Castro, Deng Xio ?
@@abhijeet_v1 But Stalin changed a poor agrarian economy into a prosperous industrialized economy in less than a single generation. I agree though with his crimes.
And same goes for Fidel.
@@therationalwing joesph stalin undoubtedly
made USSR into a nuclear power and won WW2
As a Hindi speaker I totally agree with you.
Hindi is nothing but simple or distorted form of Sanskrit language.
Sanskrit is hard to learn and adjust with be it's the real source of most of the languages in Bharat.
Speak your mother tongue with pride and learn as many languages as possible to improve your approach to a wider world.
But must *Learn Sanskrit* as it is the language of our Dharma.
lee was not a "benevolent dictator"...he was a street fighter learning n communicating in 6 languages...if he was a BD...the people would have voted him out of office....he made sg wat is today thru sheer will n knew wat's best n he got the right formulas 2 improve n progress .....dictators always got kicked out of office sooner or later
#askabhijit Given the current situation of pakistan can India re occupy POK?
@AbhijitChavda Sir, what is your view about leadership in a country? Should it be a Benevolent dictator like or any other so called Federal/ Democratic Leader? Should he be Dominating or demanding?
In the Name of Democracy, we only have Voting Rights.
Where is
Right to Recall
Jury Right
Gun Rights
Mind you USA and Western Country have these 4 Rights along with Voting Rights and that's why they are Powerful despite of Being Democracy.
India is the worlds largest democracy, I reckon. Please correct me if I am wrong. In India foreign people are not allowed to buy property, how refreshing, I am Welsh
Why do foreigners even want to buy land in India?
#AskAbhijit Hello Sir, what is the difference between classical and Vedic sanskrit? Is it true that Sanskrit we speak today is a re engineered constructed language?
Even in all God and Goddess festivals in India the Priest chant mantra in Sanskrit only weather in Maharashtra Ganapathi puja of Durga Puja in W.B.
🕉️🙏
does size really matter though? how long has it been since independence, and where is india at? the size of the country is not the issue. it is the politicians and the citizens. a small country means severe lack of resource and severe lack of resource impedes progress significantly. without any sort of resources, how can you expect any growth? and india being a much larger country will have access to more resources but how has it been working out?
We Indian connect with each other by sanatana dharma
In the past we were colonised by being socially disparate and politically disorganised. Good to seek ways to solve those. But going too much in those directions, not being clear and committed on the Civilisational State, not being assertive on Dharma - especially Rule of Law and meritocracy - are the current perils.
Good afternoon Abhijit. Is it true that the Mayans used to worship a monkey god called Hun-Ahan and also had a god called Xilbaba?
Even their places of worship look very similar to ours.
A genuine Asian mind would not describe LKY as a 'benevolent dictator'. At best, LKY, being a lawyer and a virtuous person, was ruled by reason and pragmatism. He would listen to an opposing argument if it had something serious to contribute to the growth of Singapore.
Sanskrit
Malaysia advocates Malay privileges while Mr Lee Kuan Yew advocates meritocracy for all races, because of these differences Singapore was kicked out.
Abhijit sir please tell us something about 9/11 attack , many journalist claim that it was america itself who crashed their own plane in their own building and some people also claim that osama bin laden is still alive . Whats your opinion on that ???
9/11 was a conspiracy theory created by American government and CIA
Modi had an eye on his approach from a long time.
#AskAbhijit why didn’t you talked about “Padmavat” ? Is it real or just fiction? Please answer my Question?
Are different classes speak different languages?
✌️🙏🇮🇳
i feel like india is adapting not all but some policies of china and singapore polices to develop economy 🤣🤣🤣
Singapore developed bec if it’s port location
One side you have tyrants like Stalin ,Mao and other side you have king like Lee Kuan Yew
The thing is nowadays Sanskrit is rarely spoken..i wonder if it is at all possible for it to be a unifying language.

Mr Abhijit Chavda, में समझता हूँ के 'Unity in Diversity' यह सिर्फ एक politicians का propaganda हैं। आप मुझे यह बताइएं के आप शाकाहारी या मासाहारी हैं? क्या आप इस बात को समझते हैं के सिर्फ इस diversity in our food habits हमें एक दूसरे का दुश्मन बनाएगा? गौर करिये इस बात पे। सारे यह बातें बाख्वास हैं, सिर्फ propaganda हैं politicians के
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sir, why would you say we need to go back to sanskrit, dharma etc. Havent those cards already been played in the past and did not sustain as we can see in the present. I believe we should talk more about the new path that is existing and emerging rather than talking about going back to the past that too an uphill. Thanku
When was the last time you saw Sanskrit and dharma were main topics? Since post independence to until recently people only gave importance to their education, food and necessities, no Indian ever promoted Sanskrit or dharma, also Hindi was used to replace Sanskrit which even divided south and North.. A new way is to promote and encourage Sanskrit instead of Hindi so that people in south and north both need to learn language and don't feel imposed like they felt with Hindi.. also the original scientific texts preserved in India are in Sanskrit but not in English, why shouldn't we follow our roots and dharma proudly? Since it's the oldest civilization surviving till date, we should atleast have a basic know of our ancient literature which gave birth to many great scientists, leaders, philosophers and doctors?
Ayurveda is one such text where you find alternative medicine and no developed world have such diversity in medicine field except India.

This is the difference. We had a dictator too, the Gandhi family had an iron grip. Yet, we remained poor as fuck.
I bet lee kwan yew first try to convinced people who lived in Singapore to have faith and believe in his leadership and if they are not then surely they had given choice to either follow his leadership or simply being forced to evacuate the island country 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have seen a documentery about the school dinners in Singapore compared to the crap British kids are fed in school
Sanskritam ought to be the national tongue in INDIA?? Don't you mean "Bharata"?
Hindi is more like Kheer not Khichdi for me! Its good sir.
Nobody speaks sanskrit today and it should not be imposed whereas Hindi is handy for other language speakers too!
Yes Sanskrit should be our national language
Sanskrit should be India's civilisational language again, just like it used to be for literally thousands of years.
Sanskrti is superior than hindi. Hindi is not pure language it has Persian Arabic mixm
Sanskrit is not difficult at all, I have studied it during class 7-9, it's obviously very similar to all our native languages. I can assure you it won't take you more than 4 months to learn it.
Not a dictator.
India needs to accept Sanskrit as unifying language - agreed
But Hindi is old language emerged from Sanskrit. Today's Spoken Hindi has been urduwised and have absorbed words from other languages. हिंदी की जननी संस्कृत है। हिंदी की शुद्धता पुर्नस्थापित करानी होगी। वामपंथियों का फ़ैलाया झूठ है। मिनाक्षी जैन ने अपनी रिसर्च से प्रमाणित किया है कि मुगलों से जन्मी भाषा उर्दू है। हिन्दी इस्लामीक आक्रमण से पूर्व की भाषा है।
Nonsense. India was created by the British and the rail lines they built. Even during the times of the Mughals, there were different countries but under the umbrella of a taxation system. Preveiously, the borders of the different states varied from time to time. By the way, there are only 50,000 people at most who know Sankrit in a country of 1.2 billion. So this is amother stupid idea to make Sanskrit the official language of India. It is stuoid to try to wipe out recent history of the British and the Mughals.
wd rather have tamil as a unifying language than a dead language which is the most castist I have ever heard of. Hardly anyone apart from a brahmin can speak in sanskrit or understand that language. No use of revoking a dead child, rather than a help a child which is suffering from mild fever and It will bring laurels
No wonder ceena uncles in sinkapore mock tamils as kelings and dont bother tamil

India is a failed nation lol you need to brush your facts, the progress that India is making. Communism also has its backdrops, there is corruption in China and Russia as well so India adopting democracy is good but need to refine the rules and laws.
This iz what commies are good at ..propagating lies and corruption.
India achieve independence much earlier compared to Singapore. For some reason, a large country with resources should have achieved greater heights. But Indians are not interested in improvement
Sorry but what India did the Right thing.
Singapore is Completely Sold to USA.
They have Become a Vassal of US whose Territory are Protected by US military. Against Malaysia
Their STEM education has been Destroyed.
Their Domestic Industries has been Taken by Videshi MNCs.
And at-last Failed to Become a Domestic Industrial Hub especially related to Defense Sector.
But only become Headquarters of Corporate.
