Kishore Mahbubani : How the West can adapt to a rising Asia


Kishore Mahbubani·TED2019
How the West can adapt to rising Asia
Summary
The speaker seems to be a Singaporean. Thus the side of West isn’t the US, is it?
He tells us that for working in the West, being minimalist, multilateral and Machiavellian are necessary and it’ll bring happiness to people. However, if Machiavellian shows to prefer the benefit of own country, the story must be selfish.

Probably, the population of China, India, and Africa is big and those have many races, languages and regions thus he examples being minimalist and multilateral and his one more example is that the global village council is the UN.

I want to think that his meaning is to listen to the voice of the silent majority. In the past, Asian countries, small countries, and developing countries couldn’t say anything. In fact, Japan was also oppressed by even the UN because it’s a small country that is said to have World War 2. Even though there are many victims by nuclear weapons, even now the treaty isn’t promised by South Korea, and missiles are used by North Korea to attack Japan, the world mustn’t have unprejudiced judgments. For the world peace and happiness of people, people and the UN have to work.
