PATH: Strait of Malacca

As you probably know, the Earth consists of 70% water and 30% land. However, all those bits of water and land are not the same. Some of them hold great strategic importance because they serve as choke points for people who want to get from place to place. One one-and-a-half-mile stretch of water is perhaps the most important stretch of water in the world. Through this small strait passes approximately 25% of the entire world’s trade.
