The Greatest Building Project in the History of Mankind is now Unveiled: MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) — Nicaraguas government and Hong Kong-based HKND Group on Monday unveiled the route of a proposed $40 billion inter-ocean canal to compete with the Panama Canal that Sandinista officials hope will lift the Central American country out of poverty. While the canal has the support of President Daniel Ortega and most Nicaraguans, many legal experts charge that the deal violates the countrys national sovereignty. Environmental experts warn that construction could cause profound ecological damage by damming rivers, splitting ecosystems and moving untold tons of earth. Others fear the project is not economically feasible. huffingtonpost/2014/07/08/nicaragua-canal_n_5568547.html
