>>92028272>I'd love for you to show me your actual evidenceProblem is that /vt/ has a policy against talking about past lives, as well as the global rule about mentioning le honse show outside of its containment board. Otherwise I would be happy to share with you what I know. You can also search for it on warosu.
>Okay, what is a westernised European nation and why?I'm going by your definition
>Is Singapore run by Europeans with European institutionsYes. By the same argument (you) made that Australia is a European country run with European institutions. Most of SIngapore's infrastructure was introduced by the British empire and maintained after it. Yes, it has long sought to define a postcolonial identity that is unique to itself, but many of its early leaders were European and/or European influenced/trained. Lee Kuan Yew himself went to a British university. Most ministers go to said European universities, with only a few claiming a local university as their point of study. And pic related is David Marshall. If you didn't know better, I would say he was a European man, running the show for a self governed SIngapore at the start.
>The British Raj isn't a European nation either because it utilised local institutions for power, not European ones.And by that definition Singapore would be a lot more European. Even moreso than its neighbour Malaysia, and about as much as Australia.
