Singapore Prof: Xi's message on globalization 'completely positive'
In President Xi Jinping's inspiring opening speech at the annual World Economic Forum on Tuesday, he has shown a "completely positive" vision and message which is not only about China but also the rest of the world, said Kishore Mahbubani, dean and professor in the Practice of Public Policy of Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy of National University of Singapore.
The professor says these attitudes are in major contrast with those of some countries which are now more inward-looking, citing Donald Trump, who is going to be sworn in as the American president in dozens of hours, always saying America first, America first.
