The Panama-Chiriquí train route is almost complete and plans are now being made to extend it to Colombia. The idea is to connect both countries through a single railway line, which would be an ambitious and significant project for the region. China has sent a clear message to CK Hutchinson, urging them to carefully consider their position on this project. The tension surrounding this initiative is high, as the participation of different actors and companies in the planning and execution of the project has significant economic and political implications. In the words of a representative from China, "They should think twice about which side they should be on." This statement underscores the strategic importance that China assigns to the expansion of the railway network in Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as the possible geopolitical implications of this partnership.
