Wired's Greg Miller takes a look at
the huge risks involved in digging enormous, container-ship size canals.
There are many lingering questions. How HKND–apparently
the only company to submit a bid–managed to land the deal, isn’t clear,
leaving many Nicaraguans frustrated by their government’s lack of
transparency. ... Exactly where the money to build the canal will come
from is another mystery, as is the role, if any, the Chinese government
will play. Wang Jing has denied that the government is involved in the
project, as have government officials. But some analysts suspect
otherwise. ... Nor has any assessment of the environmental impacts of
the project.
