The melting of the Artic ice has now opened up the North-West
passage providing a dream route between Europe and Asia.
This has grave economic consequences for Singapore especially
our strategic position sitting on a major sea route.
Ask the pap multi$million nincompoops whether they have look
into this potential huge problem and what are they doing about it.


Problem? What problem? MIW are smart to seize opportunities.
Keppel, Jurong and Sembawang shipyards can start building ships to sell to
countries which want to use the new route.
