The Chinese are building an oil and gas pipeline – total project cost about RM8.7 Billion ! ! The pipelines run from the coast at Kyaukphyu to Kunming in Yunnan...
well.. you may ask , what it is going to do with Strait of Malacca ?
These pipelines will enable oil from the Middle East to bypass the Strait of Malacca and save seven days sailing time. Huge savings !!
Presently about 80 per cent of China's oil imports come through the Straits of Malacca. It would cut the cost of oil delivery to China by about $0.50/barrel ($3/m3)
What is the impact to Malaysia ?
NO MORE BUSY TRAFFIC on Strait of Malacca..... yoohooo !!
** If China can build the Arks ; these pipeline --- sap sap water laaa
