Deletei happen to watch CNA on China modern Silk Road. The heart of this modern Silk Road is the city of Chung King. IIRC this city's population is larger than Peking or Shanghai.
ReplyDeleteCHINA plan is to use rail road to connect to all parts of the World.
SO MAYBE IN ANOTHER 10,15,or 20 years time, shipping may not be so important anymore.
Watch out Singapore!
temperament,
DeleteYou think why Singapore and Malaysia signed the agreement to High Speed Rail?
That's part of the future rail link to Thailand and all the way to Kunming China either via Vietnam or Myanmar.
We are plugged-in.
So its cool for Singapore.
But for Singapore's shipping industry, its another story... Make a wild guess why Temasek sold off NOL?
Shipping will still thrive; but knowing which shipping company to choose will require bottom-up selective and active stock picking skills ;)
SMOL,
DeleteYou always "snake" around.
i like to "mouse" around.

Take a Driver-less cap(taxi) for you?
Not me.
Let the Braves be guinea pigs first.
Railway most probably through Myanmar.
Vietnam ???!!!
temperament,
DeleteWell, we already have driverless MRT ;)
One minister famously said driverless trains got 3 fail-safe safety mechanisms so very "safe" one!
Then it happened...
2 MRT trains "kissed" each other.
And some time back light rail train sped pass 3 stations without stopping...
I do my part. I veto all the self-paying devices when I'm at cinemas, fast food outlets, or supermarkets. I rather join the queue to pay at a human cashier.
The bank tellers always so sweet to remind me I can deposit my cheque at the fast cheque box; but they always smiled when I told them I prefer to say hello to their pretty faces ;)
I'm from the service line. The brothers and sisters that come after me will see their service days being numbered as they will be either replaced by machines or cheaper foreign help...
I hope all those self-service machines will gather dust and become white elephants just the way Singaporean motorists have voted "yes" for service petrol kiosks and "no" to that pump your own petrol nonsense ;)
Of course that's me putting on my socialist hat on and temporarily; hiding my nano-landowner hat...
30 to 40 years time, (or shorter time), if CHINA really can use railways connecting all parts of the World, plus if it's cheaper, i think Singapore and all the world's ports may not be so busy anymore.
ReplyDeleteIt's reported now by railway, it's 2 times faster than by ship but the cost is also 2 times more expensive.
So if cost can comes down, it's a no brainer.
