Hydraulic Jump - Force Majeure?
Is a hydraulic jump in an estuary considered a force majeure?
A hydraulic jump is a phenomenon that occurs when a high-velocity fluid stream discharges into a lower-velocity, stagnant or slower-moving body of water, causing a rapid change in the water's depth and velocity. This can result in turbulent conditions that can have significant impacts on water quality, sediment transport, and ecological processes in the estuary.
Whether a hydraulic jump in an estuary is considered a force majeure depends on the specific circumstances and the legal framework in which the situation is being evaluated. Generally speaking, force majeure refers to unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of the parties involved that make it impossible or impractical to fulfill a contractual obligation.
If a hydraulic jump in an estuary was an unforeseeable and unavoidable event that prevented the parties from fulfilling their contractual obligations, it could potentially be considered a force majeure event. However, whether or not it would be considered a force majeure event would depend on the specific language of the contract and the applicable laws and regulations governing the situation.
It is worth noting that the term "force majeure" is often used in a legal context, and the determination of whether an event constitutes force majeure requires careful legal analysis.

RM30 billion. 330km High Speed Railway line.
Prime Minister Datuk Najib Razak and his Singapore counterpart Lee Hsien Loong gave the nod for the HSR project earlier this year.
The exact cost of the project has not been officially announced but the project is estimated to cost a minimum of RM30 billion. The railway line will cover 330km across the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia, which translates into a cost of about RM91 million per km. Travel time between the two capitals is expected to take 90 minutes.
The HSR, targeted for completion in 2020, will complement the proposed rapid transit system (RTS) link that connects Johor Baru to Singapore's Thomson Line, which is slated for completion by 2019.
YTL Corp's Tan Sri Francis Yeoh, who first mooted the HSR idea several years ago, has publicly indicated his interest in the project.
Tycoon Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary is also said to be keen in taking a stab at the project through a consortium comprising his company, MMC Corp, and Gamuda Bhd. The two companies are currently involved in the construction of the first phase of the mass rapid transit project in the Klang Valley.

Adopt industry best practices for your Project Management Office
BUSINESS CHALLENGE
- Lack of strategic alignment. Without a well-defined project intake process, there is no way for the business to effectively prioritize new investments with business priorities.
- Project overload. If there are too few resources available to meet project demand, an organization will likely be overloaded without a way to make smart tradeoffs.
- Lack of visibility. Disparate project plans, issue lists, risk logs, status updates and project documents make it time consuming and difficult to get visibility into a project portfolio.
- Resource bottlenecks. An immature resource management process can lead to resource contention, underutilized resources and late project delivery.
