(1) Meaning of stooges - a person who is forced or paid by someone in authority to do an unpleasant or secret job for them.

(2) Singapore should not do anything to help one SuperPower to hurt another's interest and vice versa. We should not be a tool of SuperPowers but should act as Country-to-Country with equal status for mutual benefits.

(3) It is right that Singapore should do things that are of mutual benefits between ourselves and with the SuperPowers as well as with other Countries.

It was true....sometime ago...when Hong Kong detained our military equipment.

Since 2018....PM Lee was invited to the last B&R forum and honoured with ceremony as a special guest by President Xi....and recently our president was invited as the key speaker at a forum for Asian civilisation ..in China.

Singapore and our PM Lee is respected by China as the prominent leader in ASEAN. Singapore is now a good friend of China.

In Asia, only Modi and Abe are the lapdogs of the USA...NOT PM Lee

Jm Chow China has never say we are their good friend! They address us as a old friend of China. Different meaning in it.

Non-Aligned Movement countries voices are getting weaker. Some members were/are breaking from the movement to go against other non-aligned member. If we want to be respected of our non-aligned position, and think that is the best position for us, we have to be true to the movement. When a departing president of USA, especially rushed to arrange a state visit for SGP, we had lost the art.

Thanks to D. Trump, the world is already polarised into 2 camps! Sadly the Americans are behaving in the world stage as if the world belongs to them. They do not like nations to have a strong link with a rising power like China or a country that has a equally superior weapon like the Russia's S-400 anti missiles systems. The world need to resist the US dominance as long as they view their national interest is above all!

Stooges or leashed dogs are everywhere. But what China hates and distrusts most are bananas, yellow outside white inside.
