If the average citizen has an IQ of 85~, no sense of civic duty and the nation has no longstanding tradition of functional institutions then all the money and good policies in the world can't modernize a nation.

what about forcing the people into civilization, using brute force and forced education on them. If the people are retarded and uncivilized and they cant keep up hard work, politeness and civic duty, give them harsh punishment.

I honestly think it requires a Chinese mentality and majority to pull off that LKY style societal reordering, or at least makes it much easier. Deng's China was able to ape him because of government strength and our racial ability to be little workers who (reasonably) follow orders and kowtow when needed. Been like that since the Qin.

Because of two reasons: 1. Boomers are weak, cowardly and will never do anything hard in order to help the nation other than go to their 9 to 5 and golf while the world burns. 2. It doesn't make the rich more money. Or maybe it does but it would take too much work so they go for the quick and easy money.

This. You need a Chinese mentality, which is why the most successful countries in the world have a sizable Chinese community/leadership. All the shitty thirdie countries are full of jeet/nafri/nog-tier browns.

Yeah every single country lies on the extremely important naval trade route next to an emerging superpower

That requires you to not only have absolute control of the country but also a veritable army of intelligent people (unlikely if you come from a nation of borderline retards) who understand and enforce your vision. You can't enforce these things on a top down level, there HAS to be some degree of civilized mindset among the people to begin with, unless you believe that all people are literally the same and the only thing that separates a sub Saharan African from Einstein is that the latter went to a better school.

Nope, once you start doing good shit you'll get backstabbed by your colleagues because someone paid them
You'll need extreme loyalty and fear like stalin or mao

because it could only work in a country with confucian culture and mentality
out of still-thirdie countries only Vietnam could probably introduce that and succeed (and ofc North Korea but that's a different story)

Trade routes only become important BECAUSE highly developed countries are located there, not the other way round.

This is only possible for a small city state like Singapore. The elites here don't see any reason to invest in the average Filipino and they'd rather indulge in their Middle Ages fantasy unlike the elites of Singapore.

It's true for cases like the english channel, constantinople, ceuta where the previous backwaters slowly developed through centuries to become centers of worlds trade. Singapore exploded overnight thanks to favorable geographic position
