On the other hand, the bloody lighthouse can extend our control by a few more miles.
So it's so damn important that we have at least 1 ship guarding the area 24/7.

Having seen the island first hand, it really is a bloody piece of rock sticking out.Originally posted by the Bear:sovereign pride.. something a lot of people fail to even begin to understand
That lighthouse's light is freakin bright.Originally posted by kopiosatu:no lighthouse, no ships will come to SG.
m'sia takes hold of that spot. traffic can be re-directed to johor's port if they choose to "close up" that route.Originally posted by SBS3625D:That lighthouse's light is freakin bright.
Actually I find this funny, they say SG would reclaim Pedra BrancaOriginally posted by kopiosatu:no lighthouse, no ships will come to SG.
Let's put itOriginally posted by SBS3625D:Having seen the island first hand, it really is a bloody piece of rock sticking out.
And to be fair, M'sia is indeed very close to the island what they claim. Johore is probably just a few nautical miles away. Seems that it is S'pore who is actually distorting facts. Remember? S'pore argued that M'sia exaggerated the background pic of M'sia in the pic of the island.
But....distance is not the crux of the issue.
The traffic there is akin to that of the causeway during new year. We had a fun-time dodging on our way to and fro.Originally posted by kopiosatu:m'sia takes hold of that spot. traffic can be re-directed to johor's port if they choose to "close up" that route.
i think S'pore politicians have the I can reclaim what I like thinking.Originally posted by sbst275:Actually I find this funny, they say SG would reclaim Pedra Branca
But what drugs are they on? Like this that means to say Johor port would be affected
Needless to say, alrdy no vessels can pass by Straits of Johor
