The Chinese company Evergreen Marine, a Panama Canal client, has triggered alarm in the isthmus after confirming that some of its ships will use the Suez Canal, due to delays in Panama’s third lock.
Panama Canal Authority Administrator Jorge Quijano, in a lecture to 450 clients of the inter-oceanic way, said a reduction of the Canal’s income is predicted, but there is no way that works on its extension can conclude before December, 2015, a date that itself is questionable, due to huge delays and a sluggish resumption in the works after a two month stoppage.
