Chapter 638: Tanjung Bulu Port

Tanjung Buruk Port is the outer port of Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, and the largest cargo port in Indonesia. The port that Xiao Peng and the others arrived at was the Port of Kaliburu in Tanjung Bulu Port.
Xiao Peng came here with a purpose. The reason is very simple. This port is actually a port invested and constructed by Huaxia.
Speaking of Huaxia's investment in the expansion of the Port of Caliburo, Xiao Peng did not understand at the time why he should invest in such a port in such an anti-Chinese country. Later, Xiao Peng discovered that the existence of this port is simply a god's positioning.
Why do you say that? Let's start with Li Jiapo, the vanguard of South Asia's anti-China war.
Lijiapo was the last country in South Asia to establish diplomatic relations with China. Although most of this country is of Chinese descent, since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the first way to go is to go to Huaxia and take the route of pro-stars and anti-China. The only place where F-22 fighters are deployed overseas is in Lijiapo!
Over the past few years, they have been adding congestion to China. As long as there is an unfavorable situation for China in the world, Li Jiapo will always be one of the first countries to speak out.
Of course, Li Jiapo also has capital, even though this country is small, but it is undeniable that this country is very rich and its per capita GDP is very high.
The reason for this is simple, Li Jiapo is a place where you can make money lying down!
Its location is really great! At the estuary of the Malacca waters, Lijiapo Port has always been the largest transshipment port in the Asia-Pacific region and one of the largest container ports in the world, choking the main shipping route between the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for Singapore not to make money.
China’s comprehensive construction of the
Belt and Road
can be said to benefit all countries on the route. It is to bring everyone together to make money. However, there are a few countries that say
NO
to the
Belt and Road
. Two countries say no, one is India and the other is Li Jiapo.
Indo Three said'no' to the'Belt and Road Initiative'. He also copied a'Spice Road' and a'Monsoon Plan' and pulled dozens of poor African brothers in one breath. They did not know that the end result would be so many poor. Brothers make a lot of money or bring these poor brothers into the ditch.
Li Jiapo relied on his geographical location to challenge China.
Do you want to engage in the "One Belt One Road"? Then go to the waters of Malacca, want to go to the waters of Malacca? You are going to Lijiapo Port.
So Li Jiapo wants to gain greater benefits here. Moreover, Lijiapo is also the star-tiao country’s largest naval and air base in Asia. According to the agreement between the two countries, half of the Lijiapo airport will be used solely by the Xingtiao country’s air force. All Lijiapo’s ports can be parked without prior notice. At present, the Star-Spangled Nation has deployed all its most advanced weapons and equipment in Lijiapo, such as Littoral Combat Ships, F-35 fighter jets, and Lijiapo. If there is an accident in the world, the Star-Spangled Nation only needs to block the Malacca Strait. Initiative.
As a result, China’s response methods made Li Jiapo dumbfounded. The Tanjung Bulu Port, which was invested and expanded a few years ago, has been put into use, and it has directly taken away the two largest customers of Lijiapo Port: the world’s largest shipping company Maersk and the second largest shipping company. The company Baodao Evergreen Group.
You know, Tanjung Bulu Port, which was built in 1999, is nothing more than an unknown port compared to Lijiapo Port. Although the distance between the two is only forty minutes, it is far from Singapore Port in terms of hardware and software. The latter port of Tanjung Bulu was already competitive. This time it took away 1/6 of Lijiapo’s containers, and this was just the beginning. The rest of the shipping companies also started asking Lijiapo to cut prices, which could easily cause a domino effect. .
Of course, this is not China’s only means. China is also uniting Thailand and Malaysia to build the Kara Isthmus Canal, known as the
Oriental Panama Canal,
and Malaysia’s Port Klang.
If the former is completed, ships can enter the South China Sea and the Pacific directly from the Indian Ocean without passing through the Strait of Malacca. If the Kra Isthmus Canal is put into use, the maritime voyage can be shortened by at least about 1,200 kilometers! Who was going to walk the Strait of Malacca at that time? For shipping companies, this is a big savings!
At that time, it also meant that Lijiapo's life was not easy. After all, Lijiapo is a small place. Apart from sea travel, there is really no other industry to develop. Now Li Jiapo was also anxious. He went to negotiate with the fathers of the Stars and Stripes every day, but the fathers of the Stars and Stripes also gave them no idea: Didn't see his fathers from the Stars and Stripes want to play the "Belt and Road" with China?
It is not known when the Kara Isthmus Canal will be put into use, but the Tanjung Bulu Port has indeed made Li Jiapo uncomfortable. Just about this point, Xiao Peng would also go to Tanjung Bulu Port to take a look, let alone Zheng He walked here hundreds of years ago?
However, it can be seen that it is close to the Strait of Malacca, and the number of sunken ships has increased significantly.
The rapids and waves of the Strait of Malacca were very dangerous for wooden boats in ancient times. However, most of the sunken ships have been buried under the mud and sand. Xiao Peng doesn't know if there are any ships worth salvaging, so he can only record the coordinates.
Tanjung Bulu Port is a container transshipment port. Xiao Peng’s ship stopped at the outer bulk shipping port. After all, this is not like Cambodia. This is a regular port. After Xiao Peng and Yang Meng added fresh water food, they set off together. On the dock, I found a hotel to live in.
It’s actually very tiring to live on the boat all the time. This time Xiao Peng didn’t break the world record. It’s better to take a break and go ashore to play and relax.
Xiao Peng took a bath in the hotel and took a bath. On the sea, bathing is the biggest trouble. Although the Guochuan ship has a desalination device, it always feels uncomfortable to take a bath with desalinated seawater. I took a hot bath here, and I felt at ease.
"Mengzi, let's go!" Xiao Peng patted the door of Yang Meng's room.
Yang Meng opened the door, he was wrapped in a bath towel, and he saw that he had just finished taking a shower: "What are you going to do?"
"What do you mean?" Xiao Peng showed a sly smile.
Yang Meng knows directly: "Wait for me to get dressed!"
In all the ports in the world, there is one thing, and that is the bar.
A group of sailors have been wandering on the sea for a long time. The first consideration after landing is to vent. Some people need alcohol and some people need women. The so-called JACKY’SBAR just meets the needs of both.
Xiao Peng and Xiao Peng went to the bar not for women, but because: The trip was so sudden that they didn’t prepare wine. When they wanted to drink two glasses while sailing, they could only face each other. Big eyes stared at small eyes.
I ran too fast when I passed by Vietnam, and I had time when I passed by Cambodia, but the prices in Cambodia made Xiao Peng really want to go shopping: a bottle of Coke is 1.5 dollars, a bottle of Budweiser cans is 5 dollars, and I really thought I was buying things there Is it a fool?
So when they arrived in Indonesia, their first consideration was to drink two glasses first.
However, to Xiao Peng's surprise, there is only one bar in such a big Tanjung Bulu Port, which is not small in scale, called "Nightingale". When you hear this name, you know what type of bar this bar is.
There is only one bar in Tanjung Bulu Port. From another angle, you can understand why.
Indonesia is a developing country with a wide gap between the rich and the poor. For a long time, it has been under military dictatorship. More than 90% of the people are in abject poverty. Only a few people live high and live a luxurious life. Indonesia is considered a big country, but its The lifeblood of the economy is in the hands of a small number of Chinese, and the social unemployment rate has always been high. The poor people living on less than two dollars a day account for 50% of the country's total population. On the streets of major cities in Indonesia, poor people abound, and slums are always hard to avoid. The behind-the-scenes boss who can build a bar in such a port must be a rich and powerful person. This directly started a monopoly business.
There is a saying that is actually very real: ‘making money has nothing to do with your brain. The key is to have enough money first! ’
Just like so many people in China now operate capital. In the current A-share market, dealers cut leeks. They don’t need to look at any reports or K-lines. As long as there is capital, a large amount of money is thrown down, and after spending money to get some inside information, they can lie down and collect money.
and so. . . . . . The richer the richer, the richer it is, it is because the poor are not insightful enough!
When Yang Meng first walked in, he was still very interested, but when he saw the girl inside, he sat down with Xiao Peng for a drink.
It is often said that crew members do not choose food when they are hungry. After a long voyage, they do not choose food. by! The sow is the sow! No matter how you look at it, you can't become Diao Chan. Okay, neither Xiao Peng nor Yang Meng has the habit of giving dinosaurs welfare. . . . . .
But fortunately, the purpose of two people here is to drink, whether there is a woman or not. The two of them were refreshing to drink. They had been at sea for more than a week, and the two of them didn't drink a sip of wine. This was simply torture for Xiao Peng and Yang Meng. Although both of them are not addicted to alcohol, it has become a habit to drink two sips without any problems. Suddenly, they are no longer drinking, but the torture of the two is not light. There is another very important reason why they are not busy in Tanjung this time. Go ashore to buy wine.
Just when the two of them were drinking a cup of drink, suddenly a person rushed up from behind, and grabbed the shoulders of the two of them, and the drunkenness of the whole body made Xiao Peng and Yang Meng both stunned, looking at the visitor, only to see it. A white man, wearing a pair of gold glasses, full of alcohol, with a look of excitement, but he did not look like a drunkard, it should be because of something happy happened.
"Hey, you are Chinese, aren't you?" the white drunkard opened his mouth and asked the two.
