As for an example of a truly conservative nation, I'd say Saudi Arabia fits the bill, but I'm too lazy to support my claim with links the way you did.
I guy from Saudi Arabia that I knew in college told me that college is free because of the profits they get from oil
But you might be right,
they are a theocracy, alcohol is illegal, I think that they don't pay taxes because of the oil that they have, etc.
Find the socialist government run county with the most debt, going bankrupt and where most of the people suck off the government. Also look for the government rewarding unsuccessful losers and you will find the liberals likeness.
Find a county that believes in capitalism, rewarding people for succeeding, do not have government in their daily lives and you will see the likeness to the conservatives.

The OP gave a specific example of a country that met or best represented liberal policies...
Can you do the same? Give a specific example for a conservative country?
I'd be curious to see what some of those on the right would point to as good representatives of conservative policies.

Might as well go ahead and write: "You bad, me good"
I do not want to see my country be like other nations. I want us to be the role model to the world. Not a model of what services government should provide, but an example of government minding its own business and leaving its citizens to do whatever they want so long as it causes no injury to another individual.
Whether that is good for safety or the economy, I care not. Liberty is what matters, it is the reason for the creation of this republic. All else is secondary to freedom.

So there's no proof that conservatism works?

Reminds me of Christopher Columbus saying: "Trust me, I know a shorter way to India going West"
He ended up in another continent and was going the longest possible way.
No minimum wage in either nations. Low taxes, flat profit tax in Hong Kong. Semi-flat income tax in Hong Kong. Weak unions. Entrepreneurship is encouraged, business friendly environments. Large income disparity in Hong Kong. Libertarian social views in Hong Kong. Rule of law exists in both.
Singapore is more socially conservative. It outlaws pornography (but prostitution is legal), is tough on drugs, and will beat kids who vandalize property.

To get some credit you need to give some examples.
