The official money man behind the project Wang Jing lost a huge chunk of his fortune after the Chinese stock crash. The Nicaraguan government says it won't affect the project. But most people I talk to down here think the success of the project as being more doubtful than ever now.

There are so many conspiracy theories about the project. One of them is that it's secretly being funded by the Chinese government with Wang Jing only being a front. This doesn't make much sense to me as the Chinese government is already pretty well invested in the Panama Canal operation, but who knows.
