Peru's new Chinese funded 'megaport'

Business Daily

Available for over a year

In our second programme looking at the future of the world's ports, we head to the South American country at the centre of a global tug-of-war between China and the US. One key infrastructure project, in the small Peruvian fishing town of Chancay, is caught in the middle. We speak to businesses and locals about what's happening. Produced by Natalie Jiminez Presented by Ritika Gupta (Image: Aerial view of the Chancay "megaport" in the small town of Chancay, 78km north of the Peruvian capital Lima, in October 2024.Credit: Getty Images)
