Nicaragua: New Nicaragua Canal May Change Global Trade

A Hong Kong-based company is working out the route for a canal across Nicaragua that would rival the Panama Canal, bolster world trade, and might create a strategic headache for the United States. Company officials say it may be some time next year before they finish preliminary engineering and environmental studies. The canal has been proposed many times before, but as VOA's Jim Randle reports, some experts say this time it actually may get built.
