    1. Excellent 👌 informative view on the canal. Fascinating and sad to learn the canal it was built with slave labour.

    2. Containership weight 220,000 tons that is 2x heavier than US super carrier doesn't move by 30MPH wind. BS story by Taiwanese and Japanese who made a ship. Can mouse move an elephant? Taiwan and Japan must pay for expenses for damages caused by them for hurting international trades. Why is always ships made by China and Japan keep causing trouble.
