Panama government can be bought off. Always has been. The canal is a vehicle for graft and money laundering.

Of course
My point is the canal provides more opportunities. Without the canal what can Panama barter with. I suppose fruit. Do they grow fruit in Panama? I must be thinking of Nicaragua

They arent buying the whole canal. Just two ports on either side of it.

Good question. That should have been in the article.
Maybe a specific fund, maybe private equity yada-yada?

Ships and sold from Amazon or 3rd party seller? Gotta check the seller rating and make sure they're legit.
