How I view the US after 34 years living abroad

[@aniraz90s]

I've seen a lot of Ron Kaufman videos on customer service and I have so much respect for this man. 😊

[@Qasibr]

What sort of content does he have? It seems interesting, but it doesn’t seem like they’re on KZbin.

[@SV-nv7jq]

I still remember him brainwashing the civil service & where I worked here about how 'customer is king' & how we had to bend backwards to every cutomer needs. After working for longer, i realised that was such a damaging philosophy. Cuatomer is NOT king. Needless to say, our service fawned over him n he made a tonne.

[@alemmat1750]

Amazing every time Max interviews Ron is pure gold. Thanks Max for bringing such amazing guests.

[@melwu7954]

Really like it a lot you should do more video on singapore Street food

[@harikrishnangurumurthy948]

Amazing person, brilliant perspective. Thank you!

[@teacherkiat]

Ron is so infectious with life 🙏 👏 grateful to have heard him speak 🙏 😄

[@Koriolis]

I'm glad Mr Kaufman found his home here. I think we're so hidebound and grim that we need people with positive attitudes to remind us why we're here - not just to exist, but to live. Thank you for interviewing him again!

[@NEAAFFAIRS]

I love his very sharp insights on India and China

[@marcservos3790]

At around 7:50, Ron mentions never living in the middle of America, but he would like to venture there sometime. I'm in Singapore as well and have been for over 20 years, but I grew up in Indiana, including living there into younger adulthood. After experiencing other parts of the country, including the Pacific Northwest, I appreciate my roots there more as well as what middle has to offer. Many people in middle America view those from the East and West Coasts as having an attitude about middle America being "flyover states", etc. I appreciate Ron's interest in visiting the areas.

[@balisaani]

You're absolutely right about "those from the East and West Coasts (...) having an attitude about middle America being "flyover states," and I won't debate the reasons or merit of said attitude, just relay that the first time I was invited to a proper (very posh) New York dinner, I heard the lady of the house, presiding at the end of the long table, say: "But out there..., in America!..." It was my first (but not my last time) hearing a New Yorker (or Bostonian or Miamian or Angeleno) refer to "middle America" as "other." In fairness, there is no contempt, much less hatred expressed, just the notion that middle America is different than coastal America, and that NY is so mixed with foreigners and high net worth individuals, it's more of a Babylon like London, and not really America. Having lived in Singapore myself, as well as on both US coasts, and only visited Indiana for business a couple of weeks, I can assure you that there is nothing it has to offer on the scale of Singapore, or Los Angeles and New York or Miami.

[@hikingout2988]

Some very insightful and profound thoughts, I thoroughly enjoyed this, thank you.

[@cedricchow8594]

Great interview! Very inspiring to listen to Ron's replies and perspectives of life! ❤❤❤

[@pratapkp6139]

Thanks for interviewing another amazing person. Love the careful curation of guests for your videos

[@jnsa9454]

Thoughtful man...thanks for interviewing him

[@markinboy]

Another absolutely enlightening video.

[@edgyguy8240]

I like this gentleman. Funny thing, is... i thought making this comment about 10 secs before the segment where he said to the camera "I like you!".

[@AG_MAG]

Excellent Vlogs. Adoption to multipolar world with tolerance is the need of the hour for every human being. It is the future.

[@jcchong8238]

This episode is inspiring. Thank you.

[@Jojo-oi3iz]

The great thing about Singapore is our political stability and a government that is forward thinking. We need that kind of stability for such a small country to thrive and we can't afford the type of political system like in the US where there are constantly in-fighting between the 2 big parties, focusing on the which political parties gain the upper hand over another rather than the working on the progress of the country.

[@NahbehChow]

what singapore is doing on the aging population is the best option by extending working age and promote active aging. the biggest problem is the low birth rate. there is a limit to immigration without a big back slash from the citizens. i m not surprised the govt resort to test tube babies all brought up by govt institution, who will behave and act more like pap than the normal immigrants. then please don't complain again you want immigrants :-)

[@monyultenzin]

Great 🎉🎉🎉Inspiring story

[@JenHope118]

Singapore already has electric and hybrid buses ( the ones painted green) and cars but not in huge capacity yet.

[@satishkumarjadhav]

Would love to watch a video about a foreigner living in Pune (MH), India

[@bell-xk5dd]

I just love this guy ❤ he should be recruited as a PAP minister….🎉

[@RevoOnRev1337]

awestruck inspiration

[@Qasibr]

Singapore succeeded despite American meddling LKY writes in his autobiography about the CIAs attempts to overthrow him even back in the 1960’s.

[@passby8070]

5:41 yes, buses are loud and polluting. I think Singapore can import those from China as Diesel buses are gone and replaced by electric only.

[@reflexfilms]

get the magnet for the mic - that fluffy sticking out the shirt horrifies all sound recordists - or even better use a boom and shot gun mic just out of frame. I assume you have a team helping you - go for some tighter framing. You have to realize that someone like this guest is used to seeing some production value - and you can deliver it with some simple tweaks. Apart from that - I love your videos!

[@MaxChernov]

It’s on purpose. Creates a natural vibe that people love on KZbin

[@angsiuhong3408]

[@shahjehan]

Where do we see Singapore in 30-50 years?

[@bell-xk5dd]

The same question Mr LKY once asked in 1965….

[@conradstrydom9107]

Could you do an episode on how exactly to live in India for an extended period of time as a foreigner? Do you need a job offer, or must you own property property there, etc

[@Abhimaan_Kashyap]

You need to have a valid reason to do so.

[@amyg1073]

👍👍👍

[@cratoxylon]

Hey, you are recording two tracks, if you aren't capable in the moment of not clearing your throat/coughing repeatedly, at least edit it out in post. it's uncomfortable on headphones. don't let this become a tick or habit, it's a bad one for an interviewer especially ✌️

[@MaxChernov]

I’m sorry to make you suffer 🙏🥹

[@cratoxylon]

​@MaxChernov that was really not the point. but thank you. however you may want to decide or learn, your production and its value is up to you.

[@mallikarjunkb14]

Do a video on how christian and islamic people turned from 1000s of people to 3.5 billion people in 60+ countries in 2000 years, talk about wiped out civilizations Roman, Egyptian, Mesopotamia, Babylon, Sumerian, indigenous American and Australians.

[@kimmytan6573]

Such Civic-minded immigrant to pick up rubbish in his neighbourhood , put us Singaporean to shame, especially those who litters.

[@hc1326]

I am proud to say my late husband who was born & bred in Sgp also went round picking up rubbish in my estate when he did his walks. I used to tell my colleagues that my husband was “The resident garbage collector in my neighbourhood” when they asked about his occupation. In his last few months when he became invalid from cancer and I had to push him in his wheelchair for walks, I had strangers coming up to me to say hello and that they remember him as they always see him picking up rubbish. I have never been so proud.

Nah. How about you give us a state and we'll turn it into a clean and efficient place?

No doubt SG safety n security is top notch but most of its attractions are man made not natural and it just too tiny, small..

[@mudasir3762]

1- role in of america, - he is out of touch 2- More driven, go, go, go - this is another out of touch statement 3- Singapore is not a diverse place, 82-83% of the population is chinese. 4- his view on USA is also out of touch as likely he is speaking from his experience visiting cities and comparing it to singapore city 5- Do americans know singapore- Simple answer, NO. long answer "They know of it" 6- USA society is way better than singaporeans, this guy is so out of touch. 7-

[@dennisleong7866]

I would like to express my displeasure pleasure on the littering issue in Singapore, we hired the foreigners cleaners to clean up Singapore but in the other hand we had these foreigners workers which littered all over the Singapore this really annoying me 😤

[@hc1326]

I agree but I suppose civic consciousness is not part of the environment they grew up in and they just need to be more educated in this aspect. I am sure some culprits may be Singaporeans but more often than not, it is the foreign workers who I saw littering. For eg, they left their styrofoam lunch boxes on the roadsides in my estate or sometimes when I am stuck in traffic jams along expressway, I can see plastic bags and styrofoam boxes among the bushes along the expressway and these must have been left by the workers pruning the trees & bushes.
