>Singapore is rich as fuck because it’s the gateway between the Indian and Pacific oceans Why doesn’t Thailand just build a canal on that skinny peninsula and rake cash?
>>217664884basically they are just retardedthe only real win that singapore has, is not being retarded.
>>217664884Extremely expensive to do and requires a fuckton of construction. Also no real point to burn all that money.>>217664896>is not being retarded.Lmao. Singapore is mainly falling off due to nearby states all developing, changes in shipping routes and the fact that Singapore is facing demogrqphic and labour market problems due to it's restrictive location.
>>217664962Germany has been raking cash since 1890 off the Kiel canal and the detour around Denmark is fuck all distance and toll free.A Thai canal might not be Suez or Panama level megabuxx but it’d be a massive boost to a shitty third world economy thats primarily reliant on sex tourism
>>217664884that peninsula is mountainous
>>217664884It's rich because it's 75% Chinese
>>217665036I can see the perfect spot for a canal right hereInvestors hit me up
>>217665016>it’d be a massive boost to a shitty third world economy thats primarily reliant on sex tourismWhy do you hold onto super dated 1960s/70s stereotypes?
>>217665042If that was the case then every podunk sub-C tier city outside of coastal China would be rich.
>>217665086Ah yes famous other Thai industries like uh… and uhm…
>>217665082there's literally a mountain range there
>>217665117What is Chongqing ?
>>217665190There isn’t, that vertical purple line spotlights a huge gap in the mountain range that’s already mostly bisected by a giant river anyway.
>>217665235Thailand is full of 3rd world chinkjeets, if you build a canal bisecting the country the Southern half that's slightly different color/different religion will want independence.
>217664884>>217665082>>217665082>>217665016>>217665235Why do you have a massive hateboner for us? What did we do to you?And Thailand will never build the canal exactly because we pay them to.
>>217667033That is the power of the Singaporean Hakka Jew
>>217664884The savings aren't that great.
>>217664884SEA are not great thinkers like the Chinese, This canal will never happen.
>>217664884You ask this every few months. Do you just not like the answers you're getting?
>Year of our Lord 2025 AD.>Still thinking running an Asian Maritime Tollbooth is profitable.Lol.Thaitrannies are better off continuing what they are doing right now (focusing on Industry) rather than spending money blasting down a mountainous peninsula for a superfluous canal.
>>217667180Gets mogged by vietnam though, strong baht is fucking them over hard (industry).
>>217667241That will not be solved by a canal, that cold war thinking is why the west is falling behind.
>>217664884We are too retarded
