ChiComs do NOT, repeat, do NOT, own the Panama Canal. Period. End of discussion and how do I post that “Oh jeez not this sh*t again!” pic? The Panama Canal is owned by the government of Panama and is managed by the Panama Canal Authority — ACP in Spanish.

Hutchinson Whampoa manages, repeat, manages, port facilities at either end of the Canal.

Your hyperbole and spin on your other reply aside, you are correct on this.

I did ask, while waiting to cross Gatun, about the ChiComs running the Canal. Response was no way, Panamanian owned and run.

That from a lifelong US citizen born in the Zone and granted dual citizenship by General whatshisname back when.............

So this is all bull?

The following excerpts are taken from a National Geographic article written five years ago, in 1999, just before the United States handed the Panama Canal to the corrupt government of Panama, which then handed it to Communist China. ~ Jackie Jura
