An excellent & clear prospective interview!! Well done! ❤
Bryan Cheang, very interesting guest, very precise and consistent. The western pride of the host seems to go before a fall. Somehow ridiculous in comparison with the guest. Would be important to know more about Singapores "national fonds", where of Singapore can pay much "off tax budget". Very important, to be able to finance infrastructure without debt, especially foreign debt. Is this institution able to create credit out of itself? Or does Singapore practise credit guidance into productive economy and forbids credit creation for speculation/financial industry? Questions, "iea" avoids regularly. For the sake of their financiers?
@thomasbentele2468 Speculation helps avoid shortages, from food to houses. The financial industry helps make possible and easier both the creation of new houses and the buying of new houses. Also, Singapore has some of the best universities in the world renowned for Math, and Math and the financial industries are related, particularly those you say are speculative.
@@tinyleopard6741 Thank you for your answer. I mainly asked questions. Speculation with existing, earned money is OK. To allow speculation with newly created credit is foolish or criminal. National Funds to build infrastructure without paying interest helps very much. Prof. Dr. Richard Werner will never be interviewed at iea. Hope to be proven wrong. Have a nice day.
