If the land is reclaimed wouldn't that mess up a ton of stuff; making port cities landlocked and providing a ton of land that would be (starting out) as useless sand and dirt with no vegetation? Like an asian atlantropa project is what I'm imagining essentially; the bay of Bengal I know they have a ton of issues with water coming up so being able to control the water level would be great but actually reclaiming the land like down in malaysia would be a bad idea, no?
Bengal project is totally different from the Sundaland project. Sundaland would only be feasible in a century-scale timeline, with basically total Asian unity and complete Asian dominance (and US going home) over the Chinese seas and Singapore strait.
Bengal project is what I'm projecting about doing right now, because you kind of also need to in order to prevent a 300 million-strong refugee crisis. The Bengal project is just too good to pass up, it solves desertification, it solves flooding, and it potentially solves India-China rivalries (if done properly)
But in reference to the "Reviving Sundaland" that I want to eventually happen, yea it would obviously render port cities useless. But you also double or triple your land area. Idk seems like a stellar deal still
