Instead of unifying ASEAN, Singapore is doing the exact opposite by persuading other ASEAN members to kick out Cambodia and Laos.
I knew that SG was anti-Cambodia but never thought that it would be to this extent.

Why did SG do such a thing? This is because SG is trying to help the US to increase its influence in ASEAN by reducing some pro-China supporters (Cambodia & Laos).
The latest survey conducted by SG showed that 7 ASEAN members supported China.

Things will not bode well for SG by offending these 2 ASEAN members (Cambodia & Laos) because they will not support SG in the future and SG's influence in ASEAN will be greatly reduced.

I just hope that Cambodia and Laos won't propose kicking SG out of ASEAN for being a troublemaker or a vassal to the US.
SG had been picking on Cambodia recently.
