Meritrocacy where competent and capable people elected/promoted to leadership position work and no two ways about it.

I think Singapore is the best example of meritocracy! Singapore is a place where those who think they deserve better for their talents, then, you are welcome there! Those who believe in democrazy, self serving lawmakers, and self entitlement because of one religion, then Malaysia is for you!

Milton Friedman Speaks: What is Wrong with the Welfare State? (B1229) - Full Video

The welfare state is an attempt to "do good" with someone else's money. The aim may be worthy but the means are faulty. The problem is that you do not spend someone else's money as carefully as your own. More to the point, it's impossible to "do good" with someone else's money without first taking it away from someone else. That implies coercion--the use of bad means to corrupt the good ends of the welfare state. Welfare programs implicitly encourage competition for government funds and create unfortunate divisions and antagonisms in our society that erode individual freedom. We must find other means - voluntary cooperation and private giving, for example - to achieve our objective. Recorded at University of Rochester ©1978 / 1:26:50.

MERITOCRACY AND PRAGMATISM KEYS TO SINGAPORE’S SUCCESS

Kishore Mahbubani
Singapore emerged as the real star of the 2019 edition of the WEF report on global competitiveness. To better understand the secrets that allowed the Asian city-state to overtake the US as the most competitive economy in the world, we sat down with professor Kishore Mahbubani, Senior Advisor (University & Global Relations) and Professor in the Practice of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore. Author of several books and expert on Asia and world affairs, he also served for 33 years in Singapore's diplomatic service.


Professor Mahbubani, what would you say are the main lessons we learnt from the leadership that transformed Singapore and which we can still apply today?


Singapore had three remarkable leaders: Lee Kuan Yew, Goh Keng Swee and Rajaratnam. No country has improved the living standard of its people as quickly and as comprehensively as Singapore did in its first 50 years. When I was dean of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, I told the students who were coming from all over the world that I would have given them the secrets of Singapore success and I would have done so free of charge. And the secrets are captured in an acronym –MPH – which stands for three words. M for Meritocracy: one reason why Singapore is exceptionally successful is because its leaders tried to get the best possible people to join them in government, so the quality of minds of the leaders matter, but the quality of the minds of the people that are around them is equally important. The second letter, P, stands for pragmatism: Singapore is by far the most pragmatic country in the world. It will try anything without thinking whether this it will fit its ideology. The third letter is the hardest one and that is why most countries fail: it stands for honesty. By accident of history we had three brilliant leaders who were also exceptionally honest, even when Singapore was a very poor country and the salaries were very low. If any country can implement these three principles, I guarantee you the country will succeed.

The Myth of Meritocracy: Why It's Better to be Born Rich than Smart

Is it better to be born rich with below average intelligence, or poor with above average intelligence. If we lived in a society that actually upheld the values of meritocracy and equality of opportunity, the answer would be clear: you would choose the natural gifts because they would give you the best chance to succeed.

But we all know that equality of opportunity and meritocracy are largely mythologies, and while it makes people uncomfortable to admit this, two recent studies from the United States demonstrate that the children of the wealthy—even low achievers--have better life outcomes than the high achievers from low-income backgrounds.

Asking why this is the case serves as the goal of this video, but the answer isn’t that the children of the poor have genetic or cultural weaknesses that make them less likely to succeed. Rather, the reality is that the children of the rich have greater access to tools which allow for them to mask their weaknesses and highlight their strengths in a way poor children do not. These manifest in the earliest years of education, but the gap grows ever wider as students move into high school, university, and beyond.

China learnt that the end justifies the mean. That's where Deng Xiou Ping prefers any colour of a cat to catch a mouse. Meaning embracing capitalism if it is good for the people. You would call pragmatism. Meritocracy may not be true, within the elite in PLA/CCP may be more of who you know. But the general populace ie private sectors and non-government links could have elements of meritocracy.
