So what lessons are the Chinese learning? There isan odd imbalance between the things thatSingapore and others make so much noise aboutand the reasons why the place works. In particular,the Asian values bits of Singaporeitsauthoritarianism and its industrial policythat theChinese seem to find especially congenial are lessvital to its success than two more humdrumvirtues: a good civil service and a competitively smallstate.
那么,中国人是在学什么呢?在新加坡和其他国家高声抱怨的事情同新加坡运转良好的原因之间有着奇怪的不平衡。特别是,新加坡的亚洲价值观部分它的权力主义和产业政策中国似乎认为尤为调和的部分,对于其成功并不及其余两平淡无奇的长处重要:良好的行政机构,规模小得有竞争力的国家。
The island that Lee built李氏岛
Singapore is certainly a fairly stern place. It has been run by the Peoples Action Party for half acentury. The older Mr Lee, a Cambridge-educated lawyer who was originally seen as a bit of aleft-winger, set up a parliamentary system in which it has proved curiously difficult for theopposition to do well.

The media, and particularly the internet, have also got a little freer.
