Lee Kuan Yew was the man who created the economic miracle of Singapore and greatly influence China, making him one of the great political figures of the 20th century. I recently read and watched a bunch of his interviews, and the man was decades ahead of his time, like he perfectly imagined the world of 2020's and the challenges we would face and are facing right now.
According to Yew, our weak and incompetent leadership stems from our corporate culture where the best people go for the big money and all kinds of losers find themselves in politics. Meanwhile the internet and the media have changed the dynamics, making politics all about superficial optics and chasing trends. The modern day spoiled voters are being pampered and feel like their safety and living standards are completely given and self-explanatory, there's absolutely no respect for decision-makers. Thus we have such shitty leaders ruining everything, just like Yew told us back in the 80's and 90's.
This man was no pushover and I highly respect him for it.
