Singapore Inc.
A European friend points me to a Dutch TV feature (link induces a download of a .wmv stream) on Singapore’s “success story”. It’s very one-sided. They interview LKY, Kishore Mahbubani and Philip Yeo, amongst others. They do not interview any poor people living in Singapore — only expats, a Straits Times journalist, and a young man who did his MBA at INSEAD. Nonetheless, the editors must not have been completely taken in by their one-sided sources — at the very end, the narrator says something like “if it looks too good to be true, it probably is”.
