This marks the end of my journey about the Egyptian protests.
I hope that the new democratic government will help the Egyptians both socially and economically.
Despite the fall of Mubarak, they have an uncertain future as there is currently no government in power.
This means that a transitional government is required to handle the change from the regime to a free, democratic government, of course with the assistance of the Egyptian military.
I feel that this eases tensions around the world as important sources of natural gas and oil can be found in Egypt, and may be restricted from being exported by the regime, which will cost an increase in the price of oil.
However, all this is over, which means oil-guzzling nations such as China can sigh in relief as the oil is free for export when the new government comes into power.
I can also heave a sigh of relief as the event ends the day before I do my presentation on this topic!
I wish the Egyptians the best of luck in their quest for democracy.

Next update!

The Chinese government has restricted news and discussion on the Egyptian unrest.

What does this mean? Is the Chinese government afraid that it will have to face a similar situation?
This crisis that is Egypt continues, with the rest of the world watching. We don't know how this will end out, and this may cause a massive problem in terms of the world's oil supply and natural gas supply ( Tee Yang? )

Following this chain of events, it is possible that this conflict will be ending quite soon.
I hope this will end soon as it may result in the end of the Jasmine revolution in Tunisia and establish order in Egypt.
How may this affect us?
The answer is simple; oil.
Without oil, basically, the world is doomed.
Egypt is also a major supplier of liquified natural gas.
Which goes to show, the Middle East is an important place.
Will continue to update until next Monday, which is presentation day.
