Lee Kuan Yew: The Grand Master's Insights On China, The United States, And The World (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Many leaders speak promisingly , just to give a hope about future but being vague about the execution of their plans. This guy here is not the one belongs to that herd. I think he is empirically knowledgeable about almost all the nations on the earth. A very clear and open minded leader who can speak about any global issue or affair and also provide his insight as a reference to the successors. Yet to read his "Third World to First ..." which is a detailed account of Singapore developmental history. This short book is a good start to learn about Lee Kuan as a great and wise leader. The book gives amazing insights about the clarity of thought and depth of thought demonstrated by the charismatic leader. At times, the predictions he made couple of decades back seem to be coming to reality today. For example he mentioned lingual disputes leading to partition of states in India, which is what's happening right now. Though, at times, a few ideas seem repetitive, especially the parts about China and its future plans. The q & a format of narration was a bit new to me and seemed to be needing a little more attention than usual. This book gives a broad idea about the world politics and should be a good read for anyone hoping to get insights on the current, past and expected future developments in world politics and distribution of power blocks across the globe. For most part, answers are very concise and precise which barely happens these days. Worth a read...
