Xi should give PM Lee the opportunity to taste a bowl of pork soup direct from the tap.

Not surprising, PM Lee's various remarks previously about Chinese military activities in SCS and that there's no middle kingdom today could have hurt President Xi deeply.
It's reflected by not inviting PM Lee 1st to 2017 OBOR meeting in Beijing and now, to 2022 Winter Olympics.
Can Singapore just say sorry?

Maybe President Xi thinks cheaper "nasi lemak" is better.
The more expensive one is poorer quality and is not value for money.
Dispensable
