Cambodia never got over their /pol/ pot irredentist period. Lots of Khmer I talk to unironically think that pot did the right thing trying to rebuild the great Khmer empire but he took it too far. Laos currently still trusts their party on a path of partnership with both China and Vietnam without siding with anyone. Plus from the start Vietnam and HCM set out a path for complete ideological independence which kinda hugely hampered any attempt at federalization.

MISCONCEPTIONS OF SINGAPORE AKA MAI GONG JIAO WEI
Singapore has no resources -> Shut the fuck up
I swear people overseas even the people seem to think this country's success came from nothing. What people tend to forget and ignore is we were literally created precisely because of our prime location. Draw a line in seaes from the Suez to Panama. If you noticed you have to past by Singapore, congratulations you were thinking just like Raffles. Singapore has the busiest port in the whole world because of our location. I had to have foreigners tell me that their coastlines almost never had ships because mine is constantly saturated by them as they are queuing up for the port. Our port is the reason why most of the population are Chinese, as Singapore is the port of call for many migrants that are looking for work. Mines will eventually hollow out, oil fields will eventually dry up, but our port is the one resource that will never dry up, at least until the ice caps melts.

Singapore is a bastion of free market capitalism -> Shut the fuck up
How can a country that basically owns its own airline, media companies and transport services, most of the land, build and own the houses most of its citizens live in be considered a symbol of free market capitalism? Even our National Trade Union Congress does own multiple cooperatives, the most notable one being the biggest supermarket chain in the island.

Singapore is dominated by Asian values->Maybe
While those shilling the Asian values are just coping and seething from the criticism from liberals, East Asian culture is rather distinct from the West in many ways. However the people still shilling this shit in 10s to 20s in order to deter the liberals are almost always westernized Christians and arabized Muslims. That isn't to say the Buddhists and Hinduists are suddenly for liberal's shit like LGBTQ rights, but are more ambivalent or on the fence about it in a recent survey

Singapore is fascist-> Maybe
Singapore is genuinely founded on tripartitism, with our own NTUC affirming its status as cooperative to Captial rather than confrontational. Look if you think that the Nordic succdems' tripartitism makes them fascist then sure so are we.

Free feel to tell me any impressions of Singapore and I will do my best to tell if it is close to the truth or not.

Lmao Heng Swee Keat was the heir apparent, but he was shuffled to THE battleground GRC in order to pressure the locals to not vote Workers Party. Yet he took L after L. And finally the % in that area dropped even further. He almost lost it.

So now he suddenly has health complications (that he already had before) so he wants to step down. But probably his internal rivals are using the 2020 defeat to get rid of him.

I kinda like him compared to the Kee motherfucking Chiu. He was the best they got since he was pushing for more relief for the people in the pandemic. East Coast is definitely gonna flip now

The PRC’s cult of personality for still living people is so weird from the outside. Every single people from Mao onwards have their own system of ideology even for old crypto-neoliberal asshole like Jiang Zemin. Especially from other SES countries.
Even the DPRK never had a school of thought made up with every new leader and over there they have the Kims to be a country figurehead. Here the school of Ho Chi Minh thought was a relatively new thing that only came about in the 90s as a rallying for Đổi Mới. The politburo was extremely reserved in implementing it too because Uncle Ho’s writing was more about party structure, the party’s policies in the position as the people’s vanguard and general decision making that is very specific for the historical conditions of the country. In the end, even the veneration toward him is still somewhat limited to the country’s founding father similar to Lenin which happened 30 years after his death. Cuba is also similar as Fidel is only considered a great revolutionary and a prolific statesman while the party still sticks to the ideological line of Marxist - Leninism in combination Jose Marti’s thoughts line.

Cope & seethe, retard

This is a map of Asia in the aftermath of a highly unlikely Conventional World War III (Nuclear weapons wouldn’t be used by either side for obvious reasons) between Dengist China/Putinist Russia and their allies (the DPRK, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, the other CSTO states, Cuba, Venezuela, etc.) and the U$ and it’s allies (The other NATO states, the GUAM states, the GCC states, Israel, India, Vietnam, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, the RIO pact states, etc.). This will probably never happen because Dengist China/Putinist Russia and their Capitalist elites are fully integrated in the Global Capitalist Economy (ie. Dengist China is a sweatshop for the U$, Putinist Russia is a gas station for the EU, the Russian Oligarchs and Chinese “Communist” billionaires have second homes in the U$ and EU, Chinese Companies are listed on the NYSE, and U$ hedge funds are invested in both Dengist China and Putinist Russia, etc.). However, it’s still an interesting thought experiment to analyze how badly Dengist China/Putinist Russia would be defeated in a hypothetical Conventional World War III. As you can see from the Balkanization of Dengist China and its allies in Asia (ie. Iran, Pakistan, DPRK, etc.), it is a epic defeat for the Capitalist, Imperialist, and Fascist state of Dengist China, due to the vast conventional supremacy of the U$ military (ie. F-22/35 Stealth fighters, B-2 Stealth Bombers, B-52s with ALCMs, 20 Aircraft Carriers, 92 Destroyers/Cruisers with Tomahawk cruise missiles, Patriot/Thaad/Aegis ABMs, etc.) that would absolutely crush the Knock-off toy military of Dengist China, LOL. Take this as a friendly reminder from a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist that any “Communist” taking sides in Inter-Imperialist conflicts and believing that “Daddy Xi” is going to deliver them “Socialism” is a blithering idiot, who is for all intents and purposes a Neoliberal, Neoconservative, Fascist with “Chinese“ characteristics, LMAO. The only Socialist forces in the world today are the Maoist rebels engaging in ongoing Protracted People’s Wars in India, the Philippines, Turkey, and Peru. DOWN WITH U$, EUROPEAN, RUSSIAN, AND CHINESE IMPERIALISM! DOWN WITH CAPITALISM, LIBERALISM, FASCISM, AND REVISIONISM! LONG LIVE THE PROTRACTED PEOPLES WARS IN INDIA, THE PHILLIPINES, TURKEY, AMD PERU! LONG LIVE MARXISM-LENINISM-MAOISM! WORKERS AND OPRESSED NATIONS OF THE WORLD UNITE!

Probably the best realistic solution would be a joint venture between SEA and China. Which was a possibility since both China and Vietnam had it on the table up to 2014, when China just go full military action and colonization on the area, leading to the relationship hitting near-rock bottom. Of course it’s the breaking point after a steady decline due to terrible joint investment ventures, economic sabotage and busting of spies.

Speaking on the subject, it seems like Duterte and his administration are extremely split on what to do on the stance with or against China. This makes me wonder what does the average Dutertites think of this. Do they think that simping for China is a good thing or this is 9000-dimensional chess Duterte is playing?

>Can a Vietnamese Anon (If any of you are still here) explain how Vietnam / the CPV works?
A one party welfare state. But that doesn’t mean there’s only one political organization within the country. Both the fatherland front and the confederation of labor serve as other political bodies for non-communist left nationalist and workers respectively. The CPV works like any other communist party with democratic centralism. The main body is constituted from smaller local orgs within many organizations within the country like state apparatus, private companies, campuses and municipal bodies. You vote people from your local orgs to participate in elections of larger bodies toward voting in the politburo.
>Like elections and so on. Do you think there legit?
There’s two levels of voting. Party voting for the aforementioned local and central committee which limited for party members of course. And national vote for the National Assembly in which everyone is allow to participate.
The party voting certainly has a lot of power play and realpolitik involved but that’s a certainty. However most of the time you have to walk the walk and talk the talk in order to get higher than provincial positions. The requirements are extremely stringent, any signs of deep opportunism are rooted out before the central committee voting procedures. As the party learned that lesson the hard way after a Chinese agent almost got to the position of general secretary. National elections however is hampered by people not caring about who they vote for. Younger generations don’t even care for reading personal biographies, accomplishments, policy programs or even how theoretically knowledge of their chosen candidates which sucks.
>Why are there independent members of the legislature?
Due to the complex history of Vietnam right after reunification. We used to have three different leftist parties before they were reunited with the CPV during the complete blockade years in the 80s. It was a paranoid time when US and PRC funded contras constantly infiltrate the country so having multiple parties was seen as a liability. Not only that, the groups that supported reunification wasn’t only the communists but also the patriotic religious groups. They used to be apart of the southern government but then grew against them once that puppet government revealed itself to be completely under the US’ thumb. On the other hand, ethnic secessionists (mostly ARVN veterans) wasn’t put down by arms but by peaceful reconciliation so they’re now part of the fatherland front. In fact one of the most notorious leaders of FULRO was later reformed by the government and now serving as on of the more pivotal people in the efforts of modernization in the western highlands.
>Is it reserved seating for ethnic minorities or controlled op or something?

The country? No. The party? Yes. See the Nguyễn Phú Trọng speech on building socialism for a more in-depth analysis. >>374639

In all current or past documents, the party has never mentioned that it has reached socialism. Even during the planned economy phase it’s only “building toward socialism” (nobody wants to repeat Cornholio’s mistake). I share the same sentiment. Both because the private sector’s huge role in the country right now and even if Vietnam becomes an independent, self-sufficient, cybernetically planned economy tomorrow I wouldn’t consider it socialism. Because socialism needs to be a global system and without a constant exportation of revolution, it will just be like any other commune waiting to be surrounded and destroyed but on a slightly larger scale.

On another note, my personal views isn’t popular. I can seen as the far left spectrum of the CPV, something that in modern times mocked as “overtly Bolshevik”.

If I had to guess, basically two things crashing together for maximum shit: a pressure cooker educational system, and general lack of awareness/understanding of mental health issues (friends who've been admitted tell me the Institute of Mental Health is… lacking). The usual result is a student killing themselves every few years due to less-than-stellar exam results. First I've heard of someone taking an axe to another student, though.

It’s hard to generalize people but most don’t care much about politics. The days of high revolutionary spirit is long gone. Vietnam currently has a similar mentality to most of SEA in the “gibb me that” politics. People just want their welfare and good livelihood, that’s it. For people who know of Marxism there’s two big sides: full dengist-tier socdems that genuinely believes in building socialism and leftnats that use it to justify market reforms.

For, China it’s a love/hate relationship. They’re one of our biggest economic partners, but they’re also the biggest economic saboteurs. However the territorial schism has made it leaning more toward hate.

Yea if that company is named Temasek Holdings or something. Government does own a lot of major infrastructure. We even renationalized our railways after that disaster. We are the closet IRL to a cyberpunk dystopia, but not the 'everything is owned by corporations' element of it

Because I’m not a dengoid. I’m not satisfied with another welfare democracy with red paint of today because there’s still so much to be done not only in my country but for the region as a whole. The rich still gets richer and the workers still get less. Plus the market economy has always been a capitalist influence on the country that needs to be ruled out. The end.
I mean if all ruling parties in SEA suddenly change their names to The communist party of [insert country name here] while keeping their policies of minor welfare with neoliberal characteristics intact, you Westerners would go full idiocy to wholeheartedly support them.

Reminder that my country (Netherlands) tried to bleed Soekarno dry to try and turn him unfavorable in the west, and ruined the lives of many Dutch-Indonesian people that tried to show journalistic integrity about post-colonial Indonesia.

But that’s the problem. We now have the power of retrospection, and now it’s clear that decolonization must be done through revolutionary means. Independence is something you fought for with blood and sweat, not something given peacefully.
Connecting the severed ties will just make Indonesia be like any francophone countries in Africa, perpetually reliant on the neocolonialists for everything.
The will of an imperial power always goes completely against any attempt at independence. Trying to parlay with them is basically digging your own shallow grave. See the fate of Aung San in Burma. Or how the socialist were retroactively wiped from history of Malayan independence.
Soekarno’s doom was inevitable because he at heart was a social democrat that held to power through the 3 mutually hostile force (the militant Muslim, the fascist military and the electoral communists). The CIA only needed to nudge a bit and everything came falling down.

>It also gives Thai regulators the ability to force internet service providers to turn over the IP address of the person or entity distributing such news, and to “suspend the internet service to that IP address immediately.”

Another fun fact is that his policies stemmed from his education in economic management in the National University of Singapore.
