He understands Chinese civilisation more than the Western media or even overseas English educated Chinese. He should be made a distinguished global political analyst to foster peace in this chaotic world politics. 24 Reply @TakeThis-z7v 3 days ago Thank you professor for telling the truth. 22 Reply @sinoafricansinoafrican9821 3 days ago An example is Russia, with a long serving of Vladimir Putin, who transformed the country from the edge of poverty after the collapsing of soviet Union to the great state that we are all seeing today. Russia is great power today, whether people accept in the west or not the reality is there. 15 layers of Western sanctions failed, and the country economy is growing, unlike the Western's economy that is in declining. China, Russia, India, and BRICS will shape the new world order for the benefits of humankind contrary to the western destructive system that the world will not accept. 72 Reply 5 replies @DianaOng-z9i 3 days ago Kishore, l share the same outrage, but l think finally there’s justice - with the coming TikTok ban, millions of American TikTok refugee are going to Red Note and discovering the reality that China is not what their mainstream media have told them - the government really takes care of the people. Life is good and much better than in America. Food is cheap, healthcare affordable, life is safe and secure, infrastructure and transportation is almost futuristic compared to America. Chinese people are free to travel, free to walk anywhere at night. They know Americans could have all these if the Govt did not spent all the billions on wars. The biggest irony is they are spending billions on anti China campaign including banning TikTok turning young users to search for alternative and discovery Red Note and truth about China that nullify all the lies and billions spent on anti China propaganda.😂 Truth and decency will prevail. 20 Reply @VictorThang-b5p 3 days ago Well done.❤❤❤ 18 Reply @singaanom3305 3 days ago Well explained prof Kishore........... 19 Reply @gunshotlagoon922 3 days ago Kishore is correct. As someone who has lived in multiple countries on multiple continents I've realized that it doesn't matter if a country is ruled by a dictator as long as the standard of living continually increases and a level of stability is achieved. The West in particular can be a little too brash sometimes demonizing other countries for not having general elections when in so many developing nations it actually isn't the most important thing at the moment. 27 Reply @fffuu4444 3 days ago Distorted is a polite remark, more like spreading lies, misinformation and bad mouthing is a more appropriate description of their actual behavior. 49 Reply @margaretliu3409 3 days ago Kishore!!! 👍👍👏👏👏😍😍😍😍💪💪💪💪💪💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝 33 Reply @jimmycool9265 3 days ago the truth shall set you free!❤ 22 Reply @keithtran6517 3 days ago Thanks for sharing the facts about the South China sea and uncovering the Western corrupted media.

Full of facts. 11 Reply @MMLL369 3 days ago "Some of us are concerned that the Chinese leader seems to be postponing hi retirement indefinitely?" I wonder who's that "some of us" are, meanwhile, the Chinese people don't seem to be of any concern. 39 Reply 1 reply @albietg2544 3 days ago Do you know, many terrible incidents have happened around the world, Iraq war , Syria war, Afghan war, Yemen, Israel - Palestine war, Ukraine war etc, and many more terrible things happen in every country each day, all of them are very serious challenges and issues of today which should have gained much attention. But despite that the media and the people are still talking about Xinjiang, Tibet, Hong Kong and Taiwan. The reality is, the people of these regions are happier than the people of other countries of the world. Nobody cares about the lives of people of Gaza, Ukraine, and the Middle East. Why? 27 Reply @cb250nighthawk3 3 days ago These couple of days, when I think of China, it's Rednote 🎉 31 Reply @moh2108 3 days ago His answer on dictators and staying in power for a long time really opened my eyes. Now I’m fascinated with Indonesia. 18 Reply @vichitvideo6041 3 days ago Truth should be made known to the public so that the public has a correct opinion, whichever subject it may be. Kishore Mahbubani deserves a big thanks and the highest respect. 3 Reply @levisonmthawanji4232 3 days ago Brilliant 11 Reply @libertas57 3 days ago And why should "some of us be concerned.." About the Chinese president continuing indefinitely?? How do outsiders get the right to prescribe the length of office of the leader of any other sovereign nation?? And by the same logic, why no concern about the length of office of other rulers such as the sheiks of the middle east? 17 Reply 3 replies @kltpzyxm_ 3 days ago China lives rent free in 🇺🇲s head,.

Great to hear him speak. 1 Reply @tonisetio989 1 day ago Great Man Mr Kishore 👍 Reply @KolaiBoris 3 days ago Great speech ❤ 1 Reply @mgfunky 3 days ago as an american living in the city being from the city and traveling all over the city of america I have to always try to keep my opinion civilized whenever I hear mostly my caucasian people ask questions and raise concern as if they was the worried father at a PTA meeting in school with teachers because they do the same exact thing here in this country. Right now in my city we have a very serious problem in rise of juvenile violent crimes. Problem got so bad we had to ask the feds to intervene and it might slow down for about a month than it goes again. When I am saying juvenile I am talking about under 18. Carjacking and shootings is so out of control there's bulletins in our local news broadcasts warning no different than natural disaster or war. Of a course violence as a whole is almost so frequent is really not any news for me to even speak about it, but if you are one of those that have no clue than just go to any local news online for any city in any state in the US and see for yourself and I gurantee you that a common pattern will be realized to you very very soon. The reason why I specifically mentioned juvenile is because a country that has the future foundation choosing crime over enjoying life tells everything you need to know about the society, hypocracy, narrated conditions of the country from economy to education. So, I would just tell mr kishore to put up his hand and tell those people criticizing or judging about anything to just stop it with your nonsense. I would recommend to maybe make a brochure and outline china vs US "crime, murder, drugs, war last 100 years" and pass it out. It won't be hard to research. 4 Reply @conti-vl6tx 3 days ago A former American ambassador to China and Singapore, his name is Stapleton Roy. He said before at the meeting between Xi Jinping and Obama, Obama raised the subject of South China Sea. Obama asked Xi Jinping that "why are you being so assertive?" And Xi Jinping told Obama that "Okay, if you think this is a problem, why don't both of us agree to delilitarise the South China Sea? Neither China nor U.S will set up military facilities in the South China Sea." Stupidly, US rebuffed that offer and they stepped up naval patrols. So instead of Xi Jinping being duplicitous and having reneged on his promise, he actually made an offer that was rebuffed. This is factually true, but completely unknown by many people around the world 1 Reply @oiossb6894 1 day ago 😜 Another Brilliant Singaporean 😜 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿😍 1 Reply @steventan2550 3 days ago The impending banning of Tik Tok in the US has led to Americans finding out the truth about the real China through Xiao hong su.
