Panamá abre nueva era en el canal al inaugurar su expansión

Panama celebrated the expansion of its canal with a grand event featuring fireworks and the passage of a Chinese container ship. This ambitious project aims to boost the country's economy amid global maritime trade challenges. The event was attended by several heads of state at the new Cocolí locks. The Panamanian president emphasized the expansion's historical significance for the hemisphere and the world. The project, costing over five million dollars, seeks to double the canal's capacity, support economies of scale, and compete with other routes like the Suez Canal.
