SINGAPORE: Singapore Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew said on Monday that the growth of China and India will result in a new world order.

According to local TV broadcaster Channel NewsAsia, Lee spoke at a dialogue held at the National University of Singapore that the recent financial turmoil had possibly accelerated the pace of growth for the two countries.

He pointed out that China was growing at between 8 and 11 percent a year, while the United States was growing a mere 2 to 3 percent, but he noted that it does not mean the United States will take a back seat in the new world order.

"I do not think the Americans are finished. I think they are still a dynamic economy. If we look at the past records, they are the most flexible, most entrepreneurial and willing to re-emerge in new forms," Lee was quoted as saying in the report.
