SINGAPORE: Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew has met Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou in Taoyuan on Tuesday.

During their discussion, Minister Mentor Lee commended President Ma on his policy of "no unification, no independence, no use of force" which he said, had brought benefits to Taiwan and the region.

Mr Lee also "praised the efforts by both sides of the Taiwan Strait over the past few years to set aside their differences and seek enhanced development in peaceful conditions".

Minister Mentor Lee also commended Taiwan for its robust economic development.

On his part, President Ma expressed appreciation for Singapore's role in facilitating the Koo-Wang talks on cross-Straits relations and Taiwan's regional economic integration.

Minister Mentor Lee and his daughter Dr Lee Wei Ling were visiting Taiwan for a private vacation.

They left for Hong Kong on Thursday.

Last time used to say PRC is a very big threat and how US is our good friend. Now he just follows where the money goes and say cooperation with PRC is good. I bet he will not even flinch if Taiwan were to invade China last time.

But not surprising from a politician, especially a very cunning and power-hungry type. :biggrin:

<< On his part, President Ma expressed appreciation for Singapore's role in facilitating the Koo-Wang talks on cross-Straits relations and Taiwan's regional economic integration. >>

background story behind the Koo-Wang talks.
CCP and KMT unofficial representatives held secret talks in Hongkong since 1960s. Lau Lee claiming to be sole messager from Chiang Ching-kuo to Deng Xiaoping was pure bullshit as the two parties maintained secret contacts after 1949.

Holding the talks in Singapore was to give Lee "face" for being a kaypoh and there was no other "third territory" suitable in 1992. Hongkong was 1st choice but was deemed unsuitable because of her status as a British colony then.

Haha that shameless old goat just loves to act smart and steal attention. Such as telling Japan to open up mass-scale to foreigners, lecturing the French how to run their nation, etc. And the worse thing is he still thinks he is the ultimate genius and every other leader is dumb.

May be Ah loong doesn't want him to get involved.

The more he talks, the more Singaporeans get pissed off.

Read carefully, it's Facilitating the Koo-Wang Talks which took place in SG, translation, thanking him for playing host. When the hell did he took credit for doing anything

From April 27-29, 1993 the Wang-Koo summit meeting took place in Singapore. It was the first public meeting between figures of non-governmental organization (NGO) since 1949.[1] Four agreements were signed to promote trade and people-to-people exchanges. After the meeting, 20 more consultations at different levels were held.

I wasn't commenting on that news report.
