The Indonesian navy and its Malaysian counterpart have agreed to increase cooperation in maintaining security in the Malacca Strait, Antara news agency reported on Tuesday. The agreement was reached during a meeting between Indonesian Navy Chief of Staff Admiral Sumardjono and his Malaysian counterpart Admiral Tan Sri Ramlan Mohamed Ali at the Indonesian Navy's Headquarters in Cilangkap, East Jakarta, on Monday. "We hope that all forms of cooperation that had been established so far between the two navies would be stepped up in the future," Admiral Mohamed Ali said after the signing of the agreement. The Malacca strait is one of the world's busiest sea and trade lanes as it links West Asia and East Asia. At least 50,000 cargo ships use the strait every year. The 800-km-long strait
He lives over there, in the house with the yacht.Coming at you in salt-O-vision. I am indeed in Rockport, TX! I have seen the bay, and ye, it was deemed good.Amos put his tiny tootsies into the Gulf of Mexico waters. At first, he would tremble as the wee waves lapped at his feet. Then, I picked him up slightly so that he could stomp his feet into the sand. After he regained his moxie, he stomped at the waves and swayed his face in the brisk breeze. The boy is a mariner, after all.I held on tight to him, lest a stray giant pelican come by and steal him away to a lonely pier.

Pe scurt:V-am spus ca imi place muzica country? Daca n-am facut-o, o fac acum... Imi place!Imi aduc aminte cand eram pustan, 10-12 ani, si aproape ca plangeam pe muzica lui Dolly Parton la melodii ca Jolene sau Coat of Many Colors. Recunosc, am fost un copil sensibil dar si nesuferitii astia de cantareti country stiu foarte bine unde sa te apese pentru a-ti stoarce o lacrima... ;)Iar despre George Strait... Cum suna 31 de albume in ultimii 32 de ani? Suna bine, nu? Omul e prolific si foarte bun! Dupa ce a scos in 2004 compilatia 50 Number Ones (care continea, ca sa vezi, 50 de hituri ajunse pe locul 1 in topurile americane), a mai reusit sa adune in 2007 inca vreo 22 de hituri pentru un album, la solicitarea fanilor, melodii care poate n-au ajuns toate pe primul loc dar sigur au facut isto

Here we go again...A confrontation between three U.S. Navy warships and five Iranian boats in the Strait of Hormuz almost triggered an exchange of gunfire, and if it happens again there may be a battle, the president's top security aide says. The Pentagon released dramatic video of Sunday's encounter, which occurred in the narrow channel critical to the shipment of oil from the Persian Gulf. Iran's navy said the video was faked, according to state-run media.U.S. national security adviser Stephen Hadley was blunt Wednesday."It's the kind of incident that can provoke exchange of fire," Hadley said. "And we think the Iranians need to be on notice that they are fishing in troubled waters here."Hadley, speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One as President Bush headed to Israel, said, "It almo

On November 11 of this year, a fierce storm sank five vessels in the Kerch Strait, leaking about two thousand tons of fuel oil into the water. This disaster has raised many questions. The first victim - the Volgoneft-139 river tanker - belonged to the Volgotanker shipping company. Who sent this Soviet-built river tanker filled with fuel to the open sea during a heavy storm, which it obviously could not withstand? Who is to blame for the wreck - the traffic controllers, the owner of the ship or the charter party? How accidental was this disaster, which has had such a negative effect on the recreational image of the northern Black Sea coast? The investigators are studying the tragedy but some conclusions suggest themselves. Every year, up to 50 million tons of oil is spilled into the world oceans because of accidents. Being the world's second largest oil producer, Russia is seeking its niche in the international oil shipment market. We are mostly exporting our oil products via Black

By Otto Soemarwoto, BandungThe Sunda Strait bridge project from Merak in West Java to Bakauheni on the southern tip of Sumatra island has been revived. The governors of Banten and Lampung, and the representatives of the consortium that will build the bridge, signed a memorandum of understanding last Thursday. The pre-feasibility study will be completed in 2009 and the feasibility study in 2012, after which construction of the bridge would start in the same year. The cost is estimated at US$10 billion.This is a huge amount of money. Does the bridge merit to be accorded such a high priority?We don't have to build it. Nor do we have to maintain it. We only need to build good and efficient terminals. It can be argued the bridge would improve transportation. But experience has shown that construction of toll roads in Jakarta and its surrounds, extending all the way to Merak in the west and to Bandung in the southeast, has not solved traffic congestion problems.We should learn from our hist
