Chinese Interests
The MV "Bulolo", the 6,500-ton former flagship of Burns Philp and Company Ltd., has been sold for scrap to buyers in Nationalist China (Taiwan). The price has not been dis closed.
A Burns Philp spokesman told PIM in mid-February that the new owners would tow the ship from Sydney in March.
The "Bulolo" was withdrawn from service between Australia and Papua- New Guinea in mid-January after 161 return trips and nearly 20 years' service (PIM, Feb., p. 101). She had become uneconomical for Burns Philp to run.
