What does "not as much" and "not heavily realy on" mean?

Malaysia doesnt heavily rely on international trade as a nation...
Those ports will still operate and there will still be ships docking there

Thai canal has been in discussion for centuries. It won't happen for sure. If you look at the 2 canals (Suez and panama), it shortens the route by thousands of KM and time by at least days.
The cost to built that thing vs the benefit that you gain is just too minimal. that also havent include the separatist movement on southern thai.

Got many reasons for Sg to collapse.

But Thai canal is a joke. Will Thailand willingly cut its country into 2 for an uneconomical project or to satisfy China??

They already started the project right?

To add-on, China also done enough assessment to decide to invest ECRL in Malaysia, as a backup in case ada sanction. So if Thai going to build that canal, why bother to even do ECRL

Any summary..?

try and watch the video.
its really interesting and informative video.

TLDR:
Singapore have 222 tonnes of GOLD, keep locally within own land here n Singapore gov is ready & prepared for TEOTWAYKI!
if SHTF, Sing DOLLAR will the most stable & valuable currency in ASEAN. Probably one of the best HEDGED in the world.

LOL

The most retarded post of the day.
SG in real trouble? You butthurt?
Thai Canal? Won't happen in the next 1000 years.

singapore dulu kito punye

so we should entitled 50% of that wealth automatically

Yes.
Good luck living there in years to come ya

isn’t this already a well known info

they have around 400b USD according to ChatGPT circa Sep 2021

Speculation/educated guess

Their monetary policy is to adjust the forex rate unlike most ppl that adjust their interest rates. They cant show hand literally because their economy depends on it

Great documentary, learnt better economics topic as well as the use of reserves.

Majulah Singapura!

Respect Singapore!

That is speculated figure based on the combine asset in GIC/Temasek and others, the real figure isn't disclose fully. Some even speculate Singapore has about 1 trillion of reserve in hand.

dont to speculate its the fact SG have more than US$1 Trillion in Cash and asset.
how can the world 3rd or 4th largest financial centre doesnt have more than US$1 Trillion, a joke rite? Those money shielded SG Economy from Crisis and the pandemic. Can even lend indonesia money in the Asian Economic Crisis and aid the region financially if they ask.
This documentary really goes to show how powerful and well managed she is. Confident booster for the local and FDI.

Its a good vid. Solves a big mystery for me.

Always wondered why land sales not counted in sinkie government revenue. Future sinkie PM explain this is captured as reserve. he say reserve is used to fund land reclamation (not captured as budget expense). Hence, land sales isn't captured as revenue.

What not stated is difference between cost of cheap sand for reclamation vs high revenue from land sales (RM58 Billion for FY 2023). Just for illustration, Sinkie land sale revenue is almost as big as Bolehland's development budget.

Just another reason why sinkie reserves every year grow.

like locusts they'll descend
rent-seeking without end
corrupt free-money leeches
r&r-disguised sons of bitches.

No way MAS can reach this level
