総工費1兆5000億円の国家プロジェクトが開通直後に大混乱…巨大運河を巡る崩壊・洪水・放流問題の全貌

The Pinglu Canal, a national-level project built by China at a total cost of 72.7 billion yuan (approximately 1.5 trillion yen), or $10 billion, was highly anticipated as the first national-level river-sea canal since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Significant economic benefits, such as shortening logistics routes and reducing logistics costs by over 5.2 billion yuan annually, were touted. However, just about a month after the canal was fully opened, a series of embankment collapses and flooding occurred, leading to further controversy over dam failures and the timing of water releases. Questions are now spreading about whether natural disasters were truly the sole cause. This video will explain, in chronological order, the following: The Pinglu Canal construction plan and objectives The reality of this massive construction project, said to be equivalent to three Three Gorges Dams The collapses, floods, and dam failures that occurred immediately after opening Problems pointed out by experts and residents The pros and cons regarding logistics plans and economic benefits Do you think this massive project will truly succeed in the future?
