“The #PanamaCanal is the crossroads of the world. Trump’s threat to annex this engineering marvel throws #Panama in the global spotlight. I traveled to the canal to hear what Panamanians have to say and investigate the unique and diverse communities that grew in its wake.”
Panama Canal may face frequent extreme water lows in coming decades. A new study found historic droughts could become common for Gatún Lake, the main source of water for the Panama Canal locks. #commerce #PanamaCanal #water #drougth #aridification #climatechange https://news.agu.org/press-release/panama-canal-may-face-frequent-extreme-water-lows-in-coming-decades/

After taking over from the French, the US oversaw the successful opening of the Panama Canal on August 15, 1914. 3 Chief Engineers - Wallace, Stevens and Goethals overcame several odds, both engineering and manpower related, during their respective tenures, to see the Canal through to completion. Equally commendable was the contribution of Chief Sanitation Officer, William Gorgas in defeating the scourge of Yellow Fever and Malaria, within the Canal Zone.

Based in #Bergen, it was a school ship for the Royal Navy since 1923 until it was donated to its current owner, a foundation for keeping the ship running since 1978. It is still being used in training courses for navies. Currently, it is going on a voyage around the globe, the #OneOceanExpedition – right now outside the east coast of USA en route to Los Angeles through the #PanamaCanal.

Amid the Trump-China clash over the Panama Canal, waterway authorities are seeking to expand operations with shipping terminals on both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/08/13/panama-canal-ports-trump-china/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #panamacanal #panama #shipping #china #us #donaldtrump #trade #ckhutchison
#Trump is no peacemaker and certainly deserves no #NobelPeacePrize. He only proposed that #PanamaCanal named after himself between #Armenia and #Azerbaijan to exploit #oil, #gas and other #naturalresources. Like the #USA did e.g. in #Iraq. #Gaza seemingly has no natural resources, so nobody cares about it.

CK Hutchison said it may invite a "major strategic investor” from China to join a group seeking to buy its global ports, as the Hong Kong-based company works toward a solution to the geopolitically sensitive deal. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/07/28/ck-hutchison-china-port-deal/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #ckhutchison #shipping #panama #panamacanal #china #likashing

Trump’s Panama Canal Chaos
During his campaign for the presidency, Donald Trump talked a lot about pulling America out of international treaties and disentangling from military operations abroad. Once in office, he started talking about the idea of Manifest Destiny—that the expansion of the US was both justified and inevitable. In some cases that’s meant turning the tables on […]
