  • @kannappilly Education systems as they exist today in Asia and everywhere else originated from the Prussian model of education. Mass education may be have been present in the east before the domination of the Prussian model of education, but education as it exists today DID in fact originate in the west, Prussia, more specifically.

  • I have been in the west for almost forty years, this guy is pure genius, he is absolutely right,

    sam

  • @sgpquek Because he speaks the truth?

  • Wow look at the subtitles on the screen saying 'CHINA TRAIN CRASH'...why it has to be there? BBC why you always acting so evil when you talk about China issues?

  • He got it totally right, who is the west to criticise countries like china on their human rights. just like all those people walking with their ''free tibet'' flags during the olympics. You should walk with flags saying ''Free Guantanamo'' and ''Free Palestine'', and you should walk with it daily!! no they like barking at countries like China and Iran for what they are doing, while in the meantime, the U.S. and the rest of the west dont give a fuck about what they are doing themselfs.

  • Western also gave the ideology of Nazism, Faschism and Communism. They mishandled the people in the form of slave trade and colonialism.

  • just a fucking book seller. Typical singaporean elite... a singaporean

  • @DIXIEBOY68 i hope you are enjoying yourself in this Brave New World

  • @danpt2000 western society gave us democracy, liberalism, republicanism, the respect for the rule of law, religious freedom, freedom of conscience, freedom of speech

  • @kostasmiddle singapore is in no way a model of democracy for the rest of the world. it takes a lot of naiveté, ignorance and plain intellectual dishonesty to even make the claim that singapore is a functioning democracy, let alone a model one
