MM Lee Looks Awkward And Meek In Front Of Obama

[sgnewsalte]

You watch this video and judge for yourself. To me, MM Lee looks awkward and uncharacteristically meek in the presence of Obama. His speech is barely audible and he seems to stammering as though he has difficulty finding his words.

One of them is solemn looking (almost sad), awkward and meek, looking hesistantly at the camera when speaking to the other. In contrast, the other is cheerful, smiling, poised and looking confidently into the eye of the other party when he speaks. And it would have been more more 'globally correct' to encourage and support Obama to guide & influence world events globally (something perhaps only Obama can do in the world today), then to focus narrowly (almost selfishly) on merely the "prosperity and stability" of "East Asia".

A pity.
