As a Singaporean, I know some people who hate Lee Kuan Yew but honestly without him, we would be living in slums, call him a dictator, but he made Singapore what we are today. He is indeed Singapore’s father.
作为一个新加坡人，我知道有一些人讨厌李光耀，但老实说如果没有他，那么我们可能将会生活在贫民窟中，人们将李光耀称为是一个独裁者，但新加坡现在的一切都是他造就的。他确实是新加坡之父
He didnt do it alone. And Singapore is already a trading port,not fishing village they like to propagate,under british rule.
这不是他一个人的功劳。在英国统治时期，新加坡就已经是一个贸易港口了，当时的新加坡并不是他们所宣传的小渔村
LKY is the best world leader ever TBH
老实说李光耀是有史以来最好的世界领导人
The story of Singapore is truly miraculous. Changing lives of citizens in one generation is an unmatched achievement.
新加坡的故事堪称是真正的奇迹。他们实现了难以企及的成就，在一代人的时间里改变了公民的生活
Well it's kinda common in Asia, China, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand
这样的成就在亚洲很常见，中国，韩国，日本，台湾地区，香港，印尼，马来西亚，和泰国都实现过这样的成就
@Haru Yanto Those countries you mentioned have larger population, large land and each of them have some sort of natural resources but Singapore have small land, small population and zero natural resources but within 50 years they transformed from a third world country to a first world country..............
你提到的这些国家人口多，面积大，他们每一个都拥有某种自然资源，但新加坡面积小，人口少，而且没有任何自然资源，但他们在50年时间里就从一个第三世界国家发展成了第一世界国家
@Desmond Lim they are never 3rd world country , they are already rich during british time because brit develop them singapore are their hub in this region
新加坡从来不是第三世界国家，在英国统治时期，他们就已经是一个富裕的国家了，因为英国开发了新加坡，所以新加坡才能成为这个地区的中心
@Far Hsa yeah but after Singapore was occupied by Japan Singapore was neglected for 3 whole years. Lots of infrastructure destroyed and British dont bother to rebuild. Things got even worse when they withdraw from Singapore. So the point still stand where they transformed from third world to first world within a generation....
是的，但新加坡被日本占领后，在接下来整整三年时间里，新加坡被彻底忽视了，很多基础设施被摧毁，而英国人也懒的重建。当他们撤出新加坡后，新加坡的情况变得更加糟糕。所以新加坡在一代人的时间里从第三世界国家发展成为第一世界国家的说法并没有错。
At independence, Singapore was already an economic center in Asia. All the banks and companies already set up offices in Singapore.
Singapore's 1965 GDP per capita was $517, many times higher than many countries: South Korea at $108, China at $97, Thailand $138, Burma at $17, Taiwan at $225.
In 1965, Singapore was the fourth richest country in Asia, behind only Japan, HK and Brunei (oil reserves).
新加坡在独立的时候就已经是亚洲的经济中心了。所有的银行和企业都在新加坡设立了办事处。
新加坡1965年的人均gdp是517美元，是很多国家的很多倍：韩国人均gdp是108美元，中国是97美元，泰国是138美元，缅甸是17美元，台湾地区是225美元
在1965年，新加坡是亚洲第四富裕的国家，仅次于日本，香港地区和文莱（文莱有石油）。

@Pidgeon no，singapore and malaya together are asia no 1 gdp per capita in early 1950s ahead of Japan
不，在50年代初，新加坡和马来西亚是亚洲人均gdp最高的国家，超过了日本
Singapore was already rich in the British times and they control the Melacca Strait, which is the throat of international shipping routes, the great geolocation plays a big role in making Singapore rich.
the most inspiring examples of transformations of economies from dirt poverty to prosperity in just one generation would be South Korea and China. Smaller countries are easier to develop if they can export to the world markets, but China, with 1.4 billion people, was much much much harder to develop itself when everybody was poor, but China makes a humankind miracle in the last 40 years anyway.
在英国殖民时期新加坡就已经是一个富裕国家了，他们控制了国际航运的咽喉要道马六甲海峡，新加坡的富裕在很大程度上要得益于优越的地理位置。
在经济转型中最激励人心的两个例子是中国和韩国，他们在仅仅一代人的时间里就从极端贫穷走向了繁荣。如果小国可以向世界市场出口的话，那么其实他们是更加容易发展起来的，但中国有着14亿人口，而且每个人都很穷，发展难度要比其他国家大很多，但尽管如此，中国依然在过去四十年的时间里创造了一个人类史上的奇迹。
@Haru Yanto I'm Malaysian and we're in decline, thanks to the politicians
我是马来西亚人，由于那些政客，我们现在正在衰退。
言行一致
1965年，新加坡已经是除日本以外亚太地区生活水平最高的国家了
Msia no 3 richess country in SEA so it's not that bad...
马来西亚是东南亚第三富裕的国家，所以马来西亚没有那么差

Singapore might be rich but Malaysia they actually not poor
新加坡或许很富有，但马来西亚实际上也不穷
Malaysia is not rich like Singapore, but Malaysians aren't living in the sort of poverty this video implies. It has the next highest GDP per capita in Southeast Asia after Singapore and Brunei, and nearly 3 times that of its neighbors Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
马来西亚没有像新加坡那么富裕，但马来西亚人也不像视频中说的那么贫穷。在东南亚，马来西亚的人均gdp仅次于新加坡和文莱，是邻国印尼，越南和菲律宾的近三倍。
@FrizFroz Yeah. The video talks as if Malaysia is like India
是的，视频说的好像马来西亚是印度一样
Malaysia had so much potential but our prime ministers just ruined it little by little, scandal after scandal and the constant creation of ethnic tension.
马来西亚拥有巨大的潜力，但我们在总理在一点一点的破坏我们的潜力，丑闻一个接着一个，而且还不断的制造种族间的紧张关系

作为一个马来西亚人，我们的主要问题在于政客和国家领导人的腐败。祝贺新加坡人可以拥有伟大的领导人

马来西亚还有紧张的种族关系
If Malaysia had a leader like the late LKY , Malaysia could be the richest country in the world. Alas , it is still a dream and hope the dream will come true one day
如果马来西亚能拥有一位像已故李光耀这样的领导人，那么马来西亚有可能会成为世界上最富裕的国家。可惜，这依然只是一个梦想，希望这个梦想有一天可以成真。
Better you move to Singapore. Malaysia is not a secular state.

Singapore developed because of world trade port, world ship go through singapore make them rich
新加坡之所以那么发达是因为它是国际贸易港口，世界上的船只都要经过新加坡，新加坡是因此才富裕起来的
@Last angel then we'd see such riches in Egypt coz they own the Suez. They would be EVEN RICHER because they have resources too. But are they?
如果真的是这样的话，那么埃及也应该是一个非常富裕的国家才对，因为他们拥有苏伊士运河。而且埃及他们还有资源，所以照理来说，他们应该比新加坡更加富裕才对，但结果如何，他们有富裕起来吗？
@Blue Eyes Asian suez canal compare with it?
苏伊士运河可以和马六甲海峡比吗？
@Last angel yeah, the Suez, stuff not only from East Asia but India, Arabia, East Africa, goes through the Canal.
是的，不仅东亚的货物要经过苏伊士运河，而且就连印度，阿拉伯，东非的货物也都要经过这里
So Lee's policies includes
1. Eradication of slum by public housing, minimize private housing
2. Keep low tariff of goods
3. Ban unx
4. Make harsh punishment to corrupt official, sometimes death
5. But also giving high wage to goverment officials
6. Invest heavily, HEAVILY, on education
7. Profit oriented - state owned company
This successfully made singapore rich and powerful
Yet Indonesian govt did the exact opposite
李光耀的政策包括：
1通过组屋来消灭贫民窟，并尽量减少私人住房
2降低商品的关税
3禁止工会
4严惩贪官，有时甚至对贪官判处死刑。
5但同时为政府官员提供高工资
6大力投资教育
7国有企业以利润为导向
这些政策成功让新加坡富裕和强大了起来
但印尼政府的做法却恰恰相反
Indonesia's G20. 7th Richest country on earth by GDP PPP
印尼是二十国集团成员国。按照购买力平价计算，印尼的富裕程度可以排世界第七。
He did also try to make racial harmony
李光耀还试图建立种族和谐

Hi! Just to point out, Singapore became a colony in 1867 not 1967, by 1967, Singapore was already independent. :)
需要指出的是，新加坡是在1867年成为了英国殖民地，而不是在1967年，到1967年，新加坡已经独立了
Visited Singapore twice. This documentary about Singapore and its leader Lee Kuan Yew is great. The garden city is a great place to visit, it has highly developed transportation systems-- subways, buses, taxis. great food, friendly people,…
去过新加坡两次。这部关于新加坡和其领导人李光耀的纪录片真的很不错。这座花园城市真的是旅游的好去处，新加坡拥有高度发达的交通系统，你可以在这里方便乘坐地铁，出租车和公交车。而且这里的食物非常美味，人们也非常友好。
..Singapore Rich because strategic geographic location..... if Singapore located in Sri Lanka , Singapore will be poor today ...
Likewise if Sri Lanka located in Singapore, Sri Lanka will be rich today....
新加坡之所以那么富裕是因为其战略性的地理位置，如果新加坡位于斯里兰卡，那么新加坡将会成为一个穷国
同样如果斯里兰卡位于新加坡这个位置，那么斯里兰卡今天也会非常富裕
I have never felt that my freedom was restricted in Singapore. On the contrary, I feel safe walking the streets at night and this let me feel more free than anywhere I've lived thus far (UK, Cambodia).

基本上，良好的治理才是新加坡成功的关键。有很多国家都可以利用自己所处的地理位置来发展自己的经济，比如说马来西亚，印尼，吉布提，也门，阿曼，菲律宾，索马里，伊朗，埃及，摩洛哥，古巴，和巴拿马，但这些国家都太腐败了
Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India is also in a strategic location. India should develop this archipelago. Then they can jump from 5th largest economy to 2nd largest
印度的安达曼和尼科巴群岛也处于战略要地。印度应该开发这个群岛。这样他们就可以从世界第五大经济体跃升为世界第二大经济体了。
@R G one more problem - India needs to try and do something about their toilets first.
