Why?
>>201964539because han people are genetically superior to sea subhumans
>>201964539Because singapore has western insitutions that people trust their money with
>>201964539Lee Kuan Yew. Singapore was a backwater prior to him.
>>201964539Because Malaysia's an idiot to kicked out their most lucrative port after Brits developed it for centuries
>>201964539I don't know but I somehow mistook the thumbnail for porn.
>>201964539Established port, thanks to based UK. Aceh used to have one but maybe the dutch prefer to do mass killing instead of developing it.
>>201964632>he believe the ooga booga singapore meme
>>201964644coomer brained
>>201964688Why are they only so rich now then kek?
>>201964747Even back then Singapore were a lucrative port you fucking dumbassJust because they tore down the traditional village housing to become soulless concrete jungle doesn't mean they weren't prosperous back then
>>201964747Because instead of their wealth getting sucked out to their Brits (or Malay) overlord, they can now fully enjoy their wealth without anyone demand a single slice of the pie
>>201964942Singapore is literally majority Chinese since the Brits founded it you retard
>>201964894>>201964802Unironically delusional
>>201964992Historylet cope, even Churchill ashamed of their inability of defending Singapore during the war
why do you speak English
>>201964632Singapore was a regional capital of the British empire and a major military base
Why don't Malaysians get mad at Singapore for being colonizers? They are not indigineous to the land.
>>201965465Ok bud sure
>>201964539because they didn't let Japan finish the job there
>>201964632>Largest British naval base in the orient >"backwater we wuz built up by our bootstraps and shit"
why follow thier account
>>201965465Are you saying you're not in the business of parasitizing the planet? Or is he wrong for pointing it out?
>>201966250Now just imagine how poor they will be if a retarded communist or a third-worldist ruled Singapore instead of him.
>>201966250Basically true th0Straight doesnt benefit malaysia and indonesia because muslim inbreeding genes too strong so they followed bad economic policy instead
>>201964539Singapore was created by europeans to be just that- a fortress city port that was the gateway to and from east asia.And since the city state never rebelled, it still has that privilege.
>>201964632The funniest shit is that he takes credit for Singapore adopting english, mother fucker english had been the administrative language and lingua franca for a CENTURY
>>201964579This is at least 90% of the reason.
>>201964635>>201964685>>201964688>>201964802>>201964894>>201965075>>201965412>>201966250>>201967035>>201967082indog cope
>>201964688Pre-LKY Singapore might have been a decent city by Indog standards but that was still a shantytown compared to Western cities.
>>201967517Yeah? The international trade (and internationalism in general) booming after WWII makes everyone richerWhat are you trying to imply here?
Just to correct biased western history propaganda. It was always a strategic port founded during Indian Empire.Singapore = Singha Pura
>>201967695>Indian EmpireSAAR
>>201967645keep the cope coming
>>201967565>shantytown compared to Western citiesSo? Almost every "rich" city outside of Europe are also like that you dumbass, that's why the term "modernization" fucking exist irregardless of the actual prosperity and quality of livingNext time you tell me that Tokyo is a backwater village
>>201967790>"hmmmmm I will compare a port city located in the most busiest trade route imaginable to countries that are located in desert, freezing tundra, jungle, savannah, or in the middle of the ocean"You are a genuine retard
>>201964635That's what you get when your country is centered around superstitious worship of a Semitic sand god from an ocean away
>>201967879post your next cope, indog
that twitter account is no doubt a chink shillsingapore get their benefits from the singapore strait which is literally on the center of international trade, not from malacca strait
>>201965854in revenge zanichi chinese made japan less japan
>>201967884Pretty sure Malaysia has weird ethnic autism that's actually codified in the laws, and the Chinese majority in Singapore were very against it.
>>201968038You mean the route that also goes through Malaysia and Indonesia?
once Thailand builds their canal, its joever for sinkies
nobody parks further from the ramp from their rest stop at the highway. it's simple braining
>>201964539STUPID MALACCA!
>>201968136only indonesia but we're too late to utilize it because dutch were dumbass who only build infrastructures in java and some parts of sumatra our version of singapore (batam) was founded in the 1970s when singapore was already chosen as the main trade port
>>201968038I checked the map and the Singapore strait has considerable amounts of Malay and Indo shoreline
>>201968253>because dutch were dumbass who only build infrastructures in java and some parts of sumatrabuild it yourself instead of complaining fucking indog
>>201968269not all shorelines are suitable for port
>>201968253Man why is every third world discussion centered on what Europeans did in their land 80 years agoMuh important port city built by the Europeans meanwhile China built all of Shenzhen from scratch right across from Hong Kong
>>201968253>only indonesiaWrong.
Are you indonesian
>>201964539first mover advantage + a two century long history as a major port, as well as any of a dozen other reasons they're also possibly the least retarded SEA nation because they maintained a lot of Anglo institutions Malaysia and Indonesia never had that allowed them to easily maintain integration with the Western world
>>201968319Turd worlders want to blame everyone else for their own problems
>>201968437>>201967517
>>201968319you're both right and wrongonly recently shenzhen can replace hong kong as a main portbut even it takes china to take over hong kong first
>>201968319Because Shenzhen has other more important reason to be built other than just become an international port, you retard
>>201964802dude the population in 1819 when Raffles arrived was around 150 at least for the south city center. you call that thriving? some poor kampongs villages in the mountains have more people than that.According to then Acting Colonial Secretary of the Straits Settlements Hayes Marriott, when Stamford Raffles arrived in Singapore in 1819, the estimated population size was around 150, including 30 Chinese and the Malays who had accompanied Temenggung Abdul Rahman when he settled in Singapore in 1811.

>>201968533>1819and by early 1900s it's already the largest dry dock in the world, the third-largest floating dock, and had enough fuel tanks to support the entire British navy for six months.
>>201968533I'm talking about the pre-independence Singapore, not the moment when Raffles stepped his foot on the islandBeside Singapore are always a strategic place for the region, that's why Majapahit attacked it before and Parameswara evacuated himself to the island to make a new kingdom there

>>201965531who are they to say no lmao? malays are literally toothless. Their PM anwar just said we agree to disagree on Israel-Palestine, no objection to our support of Israel. not to mention the complete cockup of their military

>>201968961Tbf that makes sense, it's either you speak English or Malay as lingua franca, and your people clearly preferred to speak English at the timeBeside your mother tongue isn't Mandarin in the first place, but multiple regional southern Chinese language

the real truth is that both are truechinkapore is a tutorial city state with high iq chinks running it along with being the prime western outpost with all of the benefits that it brings.Indonesia is too large, has too much people, and too low iq(like my country) to catch up.it's over for us seamonkies
