i only know Singaporeans like to say things such as : FroM zEro tO hErO... as if the 3 other Asian Tigers didn't start from zero... Japan literally had two suns rising from two cities, Korea was dirt poor, Taiwan was under martial law and had a facist government for many decades.
Yea, their myth of being a poor kampung, a tiny red dot etc etc, totally depends on one having historical amnesia about their centrality as a trading port and eventually British colony as well as an important proxy in the Pacific theatre of the Cold War.
