The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Yeah, I can hear your identity.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Yeah, no problem.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Yeah, my name is Captain Virendra Vishwakarma.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

I'm sailing on LPG tankers since last five years.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

And before I was captain on oil chemical ships, I started my career in 2000.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

So now it's already 26 years in the shipping industry.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

We have container ships, we have cargo ships, we have crude oil, we have vegetable oil ships, we have chemical tankers.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

And all these ships are carrying different things.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

We are taking the gas, we are taking the petrols, we are taking the gasoline.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

And they are taking from one place to another place and giving to the world.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Yeah, because it's a good job and a prestigious job.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Plus, we can move the world economy.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Yeah, that is right.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Suppose if you buy a Christmas gift from China, it should reach to New York on 24th of December.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

So our job is to make sure that it will reach on 24th of December, not 25th or 26th.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

So our importance in the world economy is if the seafarer will not take, then the whole world will be stopped.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

So at 1700 hours, I heard a sound.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

Like, boom.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

I thought maybe the crew has banging the door.

The Daily
Stranded in the Strait of Hormuz

But again, I hear the same thing.
