Seems to me she makes the case she argues against when she says, "as represented by the spreading influence of sharia (Islamic law), which, in terms of the sharia-compliant port deal, would make deep inroads into global financial markets." What does this have to do with sharia, anyway?
I think that Sharia imposes certain restraints on the way Muslims do business such as charging interest for loans. Most big Muslim owned companies are run by Christians.
