- Sky News Digital Presenter Gabriella Power has praised Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong as “completely right” for his criticism of the woke movement.
Lee Hsien Loong has criticised the ‘woke’ movement that has overtaken much of the West and its institutions.
“He’s completely right,” Ms Power told Sky News host Rita Panahi.
“Look at us as a society - we’re so much stronger when we’re in solidarity with one another.”
Singapore is not without flaws, but as a Singaporean I’m proud to say and delighted to know that our government does not agree with nor support this sick woke culture.
Unfortunately, it has seeped in. You can no longer raise your voice even when your juniors make or repeat stupid mistakes. Some of their fellow juniors may write you up.
whether LHL like it or not woke culture is contagious and it has already affected the younger generation of singapore at least to some extent.
don't need to raise your voice though.
@@Ltwentytwo shaddup wokie
Well a recent poll among the singaporean woke crowd say they want to migrate out of Singapore and a majority of them choose Australia. I say good riddance
I agree, let's elect him PM in Australia as he is full of common sense.
Yes this PM is a logic and is a real on many issues that are facing the world because of the leaders like Albanese and Biden. 😢
Listen to his thoughts on the Israel conflict a few days ago on CNA channel.
Today is his last day as Prime Minister. Tomorrow, 15th May 2024, a new PM will take over and I do not think this new guy can matched 30% of his understanding about common citizen because he has not gone thru hardship the previous generation had.
@@Matthew24.4 I'm sure he supports Israel because Singapore is a Christian nation.
Hahaha!
We in Singapore have no energy nor time to accept these wokeism. Pls keep this in your country. Thank you.
Btw, we love Australia mate. ❤
Keep it like that, in Singapore, forever!
We have better things to do. Changing the wokeness into actual action plans to reduce rubbish, get clean water and recycling etc... not just sit there in the middle of the road and make a statement. And then? Wait for solutions to drop down from sky and suddenly become green eh? Seriously.... Singapore is definitely very concerned about global issues for we are one without natural resources. We just.. try to make things work and survive, not just be 'woke and in daze'. We wake up and work hard to make real changes that help lives. Not disrupt lives.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Singapore
And you probably learn about "anti wokeism" from right wing christian preaching from the same west u hate. 😂😂😂
His father was one of the great men of the 20th century. Its very gratifying to see his son has done him very proud.
it is true but the youth of SG are not the same. I feel once the elders are gone SG will fall. Maybe that is one reason media censorship is increasing
Er wat? LHL drove his brother into exile.. Why would any father be proud about that? His family is split...
IBs sprouting nonsense again.
@@NGE0001 Yes the Singapore youth are even worse than Western youth.
@@melvinthedeathless.melvint6727false ..the brother left on his own accord.
Alongside Ghengis Khan and Ataturk, his father Lee Kuan Yew is one of my great heroes in history. These guys didn’t fold to woke touchy-feely wanking, but got on with uniting their empires or countries for the good of their people.
I was born in Singapore in 1962. I personally witnessed my country's progress from Third World to First in my lifetime. I am deeply grately to our founding father Mr Lee Kuan Yew and our ex PM Mr Lee Hsien Loong for bringing Singapore to where it is today. In my lifetime, I also see the decline of the West and the rise of the East (namely China and India).
Like the wise from ancient china always said, too much freedom will lead to destruction. freedom is nice, but there is a limit, a country is build by an ideology, not by people creating ideology that benefit themselves.
you know why china and other asian countries are improving at tremendous rate? because they are always being taught by their elders and keep on following a path thats been carved by their predecessors, there are rules and regulations.
but in the west, theres no such things. its all about freedom, freedom this and freedom that, and in the end it leads to this mess. white supremacy, hate on other races, gun violence, looting stores, homeless occupying streets, druggies everywhere. now theres woke BS, a male claiming to be female, dressing like female, and raping other female. male criminals going to female jail, impregnating female inmates…outside of prison they need to pay to hump, in prison its all you can hump
Congrats?
So expensive congrats?
@@r3dr3drose
Congrats to Uncle Sam for becoming sh!thole of the West. 😂😂😂
Might be expensive for others. But, not for the locals.
I’m an American who is living in Singapore, and I can attest to how wonderful Singapore is. It’s not perfect, but it certainly is a great place to live! And I agree that one of the reasons why Singapore has been as successful as it has been is because of their practice of having clear laws and consistently enforcing those laws, including a mandatory death penalty for drug trafficking.
Yes, a great place to live as an expat! Try expanding your knowledge and not be blinded by the dazzle of the lights. Yes, I was a PR there and the American Club is great! You don't need to look far for the propaganda, hypocrisy and inequity.
@@joconnor70 I lived in Russia for six months and in China for about 17 years. I’ve been living in Singapore for about 4 1/2 years now, and I have to say that of all the places I’ve lived outside the States, Singapore is my favorite. One big reason is that English is used everywhere in Singapore, so I don’t have to struggle to make sense of street signs, etc.
That last part is what ruined it for me. Nobody should be executed for any offense involving drugs.
@@Druunken_Sensei yt should have a laughing emote for reactions. You clearly don't know the purpose. Try asking chatgpt, I'm sure it'll give you a convincing answer or at least explain why singapore employs such a system
@@derekatkins4800 as I said, a great place for an expat posting. My husband worked for a US company there. But there's a reason the propaganda press is propped up by up to $190M a year by the ruling party. It's far from utopia for all locals.
He has done so much for Singapore. He is a leader that the west is sorely lacking.
Actually, it is his father that has done a lot more, Lee Kuan Yew. He is the one that took Singapore from nothing to something. His father is a lot lot more sharp and intelligent. It is power when he speaks.
I remember Lee Kuan Yew
Lolz, surely u jest. Lee Hsien Long has cancelled critics including those from his own family. His brother is in exile. The west will never accept such a thin-skinned person as PM.
The only problem in SIN is dynastic rule, in a democracy.
Hahahahahahahahaha!! So funny
He takes after his own father, Singapore's first prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, who was a no nonsense, kick-ass kind of political leader. He advocated for a "rugged society" in Singapore, creating a society of people who are resilient, can take hard knocks and the complete opposite of being woke strawberries. Societies need more of this kind of people.
You know what else isn't tolerated in Singapore? Standing up for your civil rights by protesting, disobeying government orders (Singapore was the strictest SE Country during covid, jailing people for not wearing masks in public areas), Criticizing government officials will lead to you being sued for thousands of dollars in a Kangaroo court for 'defamation'.
It's funny that everyone in this comment section seems to be huge fans of authoritarianism and police states, just because the police state in question is not tolerant of lefties. Make no mistake, they aren't tolerant of ANY western ideas that involve personal liberties.
@@riptyurass302I mean they are one of the richest country on earth. If authoritarianism is so bad, people wouldn't compete to live there.
@@riptyurass302 you sounded like a criminal. Only criminals and offenders like you wouldn't like Singapore
@@kawaiikoto8800 I'm not saying they aren't prosperous economically. But the same people complaining about Adern or Albo making NZ and AU a police state are now clapping their hands talking about how great it is. It's just hypocritical.
@riptyurass302 thank god theres none of that western bullshit here. I dont want to pay 40% taxes just so some other guy can not work and live in a house. Everyone is responsible for themself.
I dont want public protests where i get stuck on the road thanks to climate activists.
I dont need riots where property and lives are damaged.
I dont want some guy entering girl's toilet. Or vice versa. Esp when there are kids.
I dont need a particular race's life to matter. All of us get to do our thing in this space and racism is dealt with consequences.
Nor do i want guns. Fights rarely get physical because nobody wants to pay for court.
I dont want their harmful ideals thank you.
All those things i rather keep away are far worse than some policing the state.
This woke rubbish wont happening on Singapore. That's for sure.
It's trying to come out with the overly restless youth(as usual) in Singapore, but we are pushing back and keeping a tight lid on their demands and that of foreign activists parachuted from abroad to change our ways. Or even other governments like America and rich entitled CEOs Richard Branson putting the pressure on us.
Because we have to deal which Karens already.
it is true it won't! But his tighting grip on the media do worry me
Nah, it's definitely happening especially with people in their 20s and below. It's just there are more of the older generations around that is preventing such ideologies from taking root. However, western values are definitely growing. For example, 377A was over turned because of strong youth support and demand. Youths are more open minded to same sex relationships compared to older generations. So, I won't be surprised if woke culture like "using the right pronoun" starts to rear its head in Singapore.
I am Singaporean. And I detest woke culture. 😂
As a Malaysian, I am so proud of Singapore and how it has grown as a nation. I just wished these two countries did not separate. Singapore is a constant reminder of what Malaysia could have been with good, visionary leaders.
I actually feel grateful that Singapore was separated from Malaysia, else there will be no great leaders and nation exist in SEA. The rest of the states that joined Malaysia are so badly governed due to the corrupted and self centric politicians in federal government.
@Touyoujin As a Singaporean, you'd be grateful, surely. I would too if I was a Singaporean. As a Malaysian, it's otherwise.
Same goes for Indonesia. Suharto had a chance to do to the country what LKY did for Singapore, but he chose a different path.
Singapore wouldn’t be the same if weren’t separated, LKY would have been sidelined. You’d only get another version of Penang
A small strategic geographic space is easy to control and terrorise.
Seperation was a gift to the old man.
He could then be emperor, and groom his little prince.
Singapore is not represented by just 1 good PM but many brilliant & pragmatic minds. Just look at our judicial,, financial n civil institutions. And if you hear our Pesident speak, u will be blown away by his intellect too. We take our national security v seriously and make sure all pillars of society stand strong. 🇸🇬
Dharman? 🤢🤢😌😌
Alamak, Dear fellow Singaporeans, just take the compliments and quietly smile to yourselves. No need to drive in the point with more self praise.🤣 Humility please.
Singapore would even be better if the government and its citizens would improve the treatment and conditions of the migrant workers there while still enforcing laws and upholding the rule of law. The construction workers, the domestic helpers, and other workers that help in building singapore and in supporting the many dual parents who work in the offices, etc.
@frantickero7725 Well if you live here you will know that the manpower ministry conducts fun filled activities n outings for these workers and does regular spot checks on employers like me on housing conditions and worker well being.
@@ginho3848 there are a lot of issues here. Heck, the general public sentiment is that Tharman if PM had been great... but the “alleged” Party's feeling is SG is not ready for a minority PM.
But we know how to blare the horn loud, when appropriate.
singapore is a very well balanced mix of western and eastern cultures, embraces democracy but keeps common sense and conservative values
That’s the great thing about living in SE Asia, well said.
That’s why I love Singapore
tho SG is located in the danger zone of neutrality where either side not happy, she gets smack
Well said!
Singapore is one of the most misunderstood countries that I know of.
1. While Singapore doesn't have a high ranking in the freedom index, it doesn’t mean it is run by a corrupt government.
In fact, it actually ranks as the 5th least corrupt country in the world.
2. Singapore doesn't ban chewing gum. Singapore only bans the sale and import of large amounts of chewing gum.
3. While Singapore ranks as an expensive place to live in, it also ranks as the happiest country in Asia.
Furthermore, it is the only country I have heard of that limits the number of cars in the whole country.
This is why buying a car, which is included in the cost of living, is so expensive.
Instead, most people have to take a bus or train instead.
4. Speaking of trains and buses, Singapore also ranks among the world's best public transport systems.
Not sure who does the happiness index in singapore but that one is completely inaccurate according to Singaporeans
@confucious1518 The rankings are based on data from the Gallup World Poll which measures a population's evaluation of their happiness, averaged over three years from 2021 to 2023. Researchers also took into account six key factors to draw an overall picture of a country's happiness, namely GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom, generosity, and corruption.
@@confucious1518singaporeans complain a lot. And it’s “happiness” for singaporeans is relative to other singaporeans that look like they have a better life. The Gallup survey is done on a global scale. We singaporeans just have to be more contented with what we have
@confucious1518 Nah man. We literally take the public transport we have for granted. We're definitely in a much more comfortable and enjoyable environment than many other countries in Asia.
@@confucious1518As a Singaporean, I agree our happiness index is not accurate...mainly because Sgeans lovesssss to complaint. Psychologically, if you always find something to complaint about,you'll never be happy.
Singapore has given me financial freedom, property-owing and a carefree retirement. I am
proud of being a Singaporean, thanks to our government, past and present.
Never been prouder of you mr lee. ! That took lots of strength , brilliance and courage. 🌹🌹👍
Not for him. He lives in Singapore.
As long as you lied through your teeths and do the opposite everyday, anything is possible. Like Goebbels said, a lie could be truth if repeated often
Strength, brilliance and courage 😂 How low is your bar!

I have all my respect to our PM. Yes! He always talk with so much sense and wisdom! We ❤ him!
If he were going to give a speech in the US senate congressman Tom Cotton would have questioned him "have you ever been a member of CCP?"
Esp since he speaks fluent Russian
TBH that is an issue IMO, Singaporeans being used as a scapegoat for Chinese companies as their representative overseas and even used by the CCP to spy for them, which already happened in a few years back.
Which seems somehow is not being protected, in the chase to be neutral in this “climate” and to be the Business place for both sides.
@@PrograError Yea that's all conjecture. But I suppose that's the point. It's your opinion. IMO Tom could've actually spoken about the topic at hand, "how tiktok influences America's kids" yet he went with the dishonest approach of attacking a person's Ethnicity. If there's wrongdoing present, prove it the right way by addressing the topic at hand.
@@pandax5359 IMO, there's no "DEI" correct way to address the topic without going there.
Sure you can attack the Party as a whole but them will deem it as attack on the Chinese race as a whole and China itself.
There's just too many angles to the issue anyway… should you attack it from the political side or the business side?
Hahahahaha!! 🤣
Thats the Singapore pledge, kids recite this daily from 7yrs old till theyre 17... ive make a good move moving to singapore and am still loving it

Majulah Singapura!!
@jahnsega5599 When I was growing up in Singapore in the 80s, we had to say the pledge in school in a different language (English, Mandarin, and Malay) on different days to express our unity. I am not sure if it is still the same.
@@LoveNotWar a 97' here, even then we only do it in English. Perhaps some odd times we would do it in Chinese and such, but that's more for class work.
Singapore loves Australia too. Hosts have too kind and gracious words.
I am a Singaporean, On the contrary, we are able to criticise our government. However, we must be able to justify our claims and take responsibility for our words.
The government does not take well to fake news and baseless accusations. The politicians take a zero tolerance policy toward any slander about their personal integrity as corruption is also viewed as a serious crime.
Only problem is when the government is the arbiter of what is called fake news, as under the POFMA law, it's the ministers that issues the Orders (Corrective Order, or Notices, or Directives, or Declared Online Location)
the current government might be upright and straight, who's to say it will not be abused in the future
Isn't that communism you're describing?
@@mofofosho1 no. If you have proof, you have no problems at all. Just show the proof.
And do you even know what communism really is? Ironically, the west including the USA, is becoming more communist than China.

The Singapore government is more tolerant of criticism compared to twenty years ago when PM Lee first took over and the western press is not giving PM Lee due credit. I have done my fair share of criticism and nothing has happened to me because I did not commit slander nor stir up racial problem. All our policies can be openly debated by all Singaporeans. PM Lee has done us proud and we are just as proud of him. Today is the last day of his premiership and I congratulate him for a job well done🎉.
Yes. People need to be educated and know what's constructive critism Vs slander, profanity, insults. Low EQ and low IQ definitely leads to disaster.
Glad that you were able to make a fair criticism.
He's my PM and he's absolutely right.

I am a gay male Singaporean and I totally agree with ex prime minister Lee Hsien Long. We are living in a state of extreme wokeness where we cannot have a proper decent discourse of offering differing opinions in the fear of offending someone. We can be decent respectful individuals with differing opinions to help understand each other better and get to a place of a place of solidarity. Extreme wokeness seen in the west prevent this from happening. Change that benefits people and society as a whole does not happen overnight.

Comparing Singapore to Cuba is one of the best ways to rip marxism to shreds. Both former colonies, small countries and political dictatorships; yet Singapore went from being a poor country 70 years ago to being one of the wealthiest nations in the world because of its free-market economics, while Cuba has been begging the fascistic UN for food for the past few months in order to prevent popular unrest from toppling its wealthy marxist rulers.
If we were Geographically neighbours to USA , we probli would fail . Its great we are far far away ... its great we are close to China too ...Our Late Great Lee Kuan Yew mentioned in the 60's-70's , we caught a CIA spy who was caught seeking to bribe one of our ministers . You can Fact Check this . Its a true story . In order to maintain Hegemony , the USA will never play fair , they will suppress others if their narrative is challenged . There were many a times when Singapore was " Hit " many times by Journalists from the USA , accusing us of authoritarianism . in fact singapore was not invited to the democratic summit for countries , becos untill today we arent considered 100% democratic . We dont care really . The people are living fine . No Thanks we dont want to be like USA ...no thanks .
Much of it depends on how it handles diplomatic relations.
Cuba, being close to USA, would naturally fall into the US sphere, just as Ukraine would naturally be in the Russian sphere. Trying to turn against that is usually futile.
For Singapore, it has largely maintained its position in the ASEAN zone and has learnt how to handle relations with its immediate neighbors.
At the same time, Singapore is sometimes not that free-market internally but it has managed to implement some form of state capitalism without antagonizing its important economic partners, especially the USA.
I don't think you understand great power politics and sphere of influences.
Yes, you pointed out some similarities but growing a nation is way more complex than those few factors.
You got to see how big Cuba is vs Singapore. Singapore is easy to govern due to it extreme small size.
Someone with some sense.
If every effort was made to have a perfect country, Singapore is perhaps the result. Not perfect, but good enough for most people.
As wise as Lee Hsien Loong is, he is just about half as great as his father, late Lee Kuan Yew, was, and that is actually paying the son a compliment.
You can't compare both of them. They became leaders for different generations with different expectations. Lee Kuan Yew led during a time when even the mere survival of Singapore is called into question, and he brought Singapore into a thriving state. GCT came in to carry on and enhance what LKY has.done. Finally LHL stepped in when things have more or less settled down, and his focus was to bring Singapore into the technological revolution through digital and healthcare transformation. Of the 3 PMs, of course LKY's contribution would be best remembered because in some sense, he made the "impossible", possible because nobody believed Singapore would survive.
Singapore got their priorities right for sure, hopefully future leaders would take the same strong stance and not play into populist politics.
LET SG GOVERNMENT RUN AUSTRALIA.
There is much to learn from Singapore's approach to solving problems, be it housing, education, healthcare or racial and religious conflicts. As a Singaporean, I am proud to say we have done well in all these areas as compared to other countries and this is not by chance. The people must want to support the government they vote for. You see infighting in a lot of other countries and anything but real efforts to solve real issues. People start to get disillusioned with the leaders. They question if the leaders even have the solutions. Our leaders are not perfect themselves; they are held accountable to high standards of ethics and behaviour. Leaders who fall short are taken to task and some have resigned owing to personal indiscretions. You don't see this happening in other countries where such lack of ethics is condoned and even treated as a norm.
Well said Mr. Lee....
Of course, as a singaporean i agree
Keep the Woke culture in the West. Singapore have their own culture.
Yeah
"Kiasu", "chope" & "angkat bodek"
I'd like to applaud these courageous, bright and clear-minded ladies.
I support what our prime minister Lee said and I proud of him and all our community leader.
