President Xi is afraid to get involved with Singapore security issues..

"SINGAPORE – Tariffs imposed by the US may pose a threat to global security as international relations are fundamentally reshaped.

Moving away from a rules-based system also means every country will have to look to itself for security, said Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam on April 17."

But now, the other 9 Asean members dragging Singapore into the tariffs shit, together calling for spirit of multilateralism.

If US were to counter offer a blanket of 15% tariffs for the groups of 10 Asean members, Singapore's balls Kenna squeezed.

How?

[CHAOS]

On September 24, 2019 Singapore and the United States signed the Protocol amending the 1990 Memorandum of Understanding on the U.S. use of facilities in Singapore.

Singapore had proposed to use U.S. warships, thus becoming the largest U.S. military base in Asia. The U.S. 7th Fleet and its ships, including aircraft carriers and other large vessels, provide logistics and maintenance services and greatly expand military control.

The 7th Fleet can cross the Strait of Malacca, enter the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea and reach the Gulf region within 24 hours. The U.S. military vessels in all the ports of the Strait can be used without prior notice. In this regard, the United States is also actively cooperating with Malaysia, the Philippines, Brunei, Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries.

The United States has deployed more advanced weapons and equipment in Singapore. As long as there are military disputes in East and Southeast Asia, the United States will immediately block the Strait of Malacca and hence control the whole crude oil transport system. In case of conflict, the Strait of Malacca could easily be blocked, thus cutting China off from crucial energy resources.

Singapore is a country traditionally friendly to the United States. The reason is the same as Japan’s, because the United States has interests in the Far East, while keeping on encircling China, thus trying to break “the string of pearls”.

[revealer]

These 3 countries have one thing in common, they have higher standards tariffs than their neighbors and they r the transshipping centres for Chinese goods to the US.

[teaserteam]

They are the strategic partners of China for transshipment of goods to the US.

Vietnam, Malaysia, and Cambodia have also been significantly affected, being hit by US tariffs respectively as high as 46%, 24% and 49%. Although tariffs on the Southeast Asian nations have been suspended, their economies remain vulnerable to potential trade shocks. Due to their trade surplus with the US and their roles as transshipment hubs for Chinese goods, these countries have been accused of facilitating indirect Chinese exports to the US, putting them in Washington’s crosshairs.

"The United States is expected to be the largest recipient of Temasek's investment dollars with $30 billion forecasted over the next five years. Temasek recently reported a net portfolio value of $288 billion. It is wholly owned by the Singapore Minister of Finance, but is not state-directed and operates independently.

I think XJP or his top officials got read singapore's online forums and I think XJP knows that many singaporeans are the worst racists against China people and many singaporeans are the most anti-China compared to other Asean natives people from other Asean countries

Malaysia's Fahmi Fadzil says he hopes better people to people relations with China will be enhanced.
