D15 - 武钢 (:

Industrial visit to 武汉钢铁企业, in short（武钢）. It is the 3rd biggest steel making factory in China. In the morning, both LSCT together with MDE, met up at our normal meeting place for tour which is the wust main gate. 2 buses from the organization were chartered for us (lsct, ece and mde) to bring us in to their organization. Their company is really big, as in the area itself. As their organization is confidential of what they are doing, they have the internal transport which is inclusive of train, (Yes, train! ) buses and taking of pictures is not allowed. Therefore, the pictures that I've took today is only the outside of the steel making factory.

Anyway, we went in with our helmets on and tour the whole stretch of the factory that is at work from the top. We saw the process of the steel being made and it was still piping hot red in colour. While we were walking, we can feel the intense heat when the steel is being processed and transported and the noise was really loud, that we could barely hear each other. Then through a few processes, the steel is being shaped into the required thickness and length, have the impurity removed, and lastly it was being cool down, and it turned to grey/black colour. It was a nice experience to look through the whole process of shaping a steel.

NE message: We must ourselves defend Singapore.
As what Mr Wong had mentioned, why do China still produce a large amount of steel? This is part of the strategic planning. As steel may not be very useful or profitable, but they still have to equip themselves with these resources in case there is a depletion of resources and other countries might not want to help them or sell it to them. We should prepare ourselves for the worst scenario.
As for Singapore, we built up on our military. Like the making of armors, weapons, which can be used to protect/defend ourselves in time of need. If we don't even help ourselves, who will help us? We must not be highly dependable on others, as we will not know what may happen. Everything's unpredictable.
