英国脱欧之思维大陆化和一带一路高铁化

英国脱欧之思维大陆化和一带一路高铁化

英国脱欧正式终结大英帝国以海权争霸天下,西方海洋思维所主导的经济模式。取而代之的是大陆思维(中国,印度)的经济,甚至政治妥协。欧盟将向东发展,对俄罗斯采取务实态度,加速支持对中国的一带一路的高铁化,和强化对印度的‘香料’贸易。

英国脱欧短期内对世界会造成冲击,但是,这不过是茶杯里的风暴而已。正如美国经济学家Paul Krugman说的,英磅下跌和金融市场的危机在经过调整后,会恢复过来。英磅下跌没有70年代,90年代那么厉害。

英国内部的冲击反而更加的大:大英帝国将从一个联合王国变成一个小英格兰。土地和人口将缩小,当然,在世界的影响力也将缩小。相对来说,从货币下跌情形来说,欧元对美元的跌幅(-2.35%)小而英磅的跌幅却很大(-8.05%)。英国脱欧把欧盟的缺点暴露出来,但是,吃亏最多的很可能是英国,一夜之间,从(美元计算)世界第五经济体,下降到第六经济体。

如果说欧盟会解体,那么,最先解体的,恐怕是英国。苏格兰独立运动,爱尔兰的统一。。。。

所以,我们看到英国现在不急于申请脱欧,三个月后,保守党新领袖上台后,才来谈。反而是欧盟国家,希望尽快解决英国脱欧的法律程序。



英国的海洋思维,普通法,在欧盟的大陆思维,法律结构下,出现了分歧。表面上看,似乎很在乎移民问题,事实上,英国的政治,经济,文化发展,也要受到欧盟的制约。这就导致英国人寻求‘独立’的决心。难怪,脱欧人士认为6月23日是英国的独立日。

巨变时代?

英国脱欧不是简单的欧盟和英国之间的问题,或者,只是影响国际贸易,金融和政治的问题。进一步思考,我们现在正处在一个巨变的时代。

  • 地球上已经没有新大陆了。
  • 欧洲的海洋经济思维,从希腊,罗马,再到哥伦布发现新大陆,殖民地,黑奴,最后表演了英国脱欧这出戏。

  • 日本经济产业省2016年版的《通商白皮书》,对日本的出口结构过于依赖向北美市场出口汽车的现状敲响了警钟。白皮书分析称,在高新技术产品的出口方面, 日本正在被中国赶超。

  • 美国,加拿大在东西两岸火车互通后,经济政治,高度发展。这其实是从海洋思维转型到大陆思维。从普通火车到高铁,经济发展将会是一个什么概念?

  • 一带一路利用高铁,进一步提升大陆思维。而英国脱欧,却加速欧盟向东发展,配合中国和印度的崛起。



在海洋思维时代,在殖民地时代,利用海洋,发展了很多贸易城市,孟买,加尔各答,新加坡,香港,上海。。。
在大陆思维的时代,将会出现不同的新城市,上图的深色红点和蓝点将会出现。经商,做生意,文化交流,政治制度,将会出现什么变化?

大陆思维在高铁的推广下,也很可能延伸到北美。


大陆思维中的中国务实社会主义和印度的务实民主制度,对于新时代,巨变时代,价值判断,会产生什么影响?





新加坡行动党领袖对英国脱欧有他们一套的说法,甚至只是看到短期的利害关系,而没有把中、长期的发展道出。这是否是他们的国际视野局限,还是根本就不理解亚洲的发展?

李总理:英脱欧是“转捩点”

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting ...

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By i...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...
