According to Agence France-Presse, Hagerseth recently attended the "Shangri-La Dialogue" security forum in Singapore. When elaborating on the United States' strategic position in the Asia-Pacific region, he referred to Trump and Lee Kuan Yew as "leaders of historical significance." Hagerseth stated: "Like the late Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, President Trump's leadership is also built on common sense and national interests." Lee Kuan Yew served as Singapore's prime minister for nearly 30 years and is widely regarded as a key figure in leading Singapore from a developing country to a high-tech and financial center. Despite his passing more than a decade ago, he still enjoys high respect in Singaporean society. Hagerseth praised Lee Kuan Yew's "wisdom and foresight in leadership," and commented that "this is what can be achieved by policies based on common sense, which is also the direction pursued by President Trump." However, the comparison between Trump and Lee Kuan Yew sparked a large amount of controversy and satire on social media. One commenter said: "One is a historical giant, the other is an emotional farce." Another commenter remarked: "Comparing Trump with Lee Kuan Yew? That's like comparing instant noodles with gourmet cuisine." Did they not consider the feelings of the people of Singapore when saying this? Or are they just speaking as a media person?
