PANAMA-CANAL-100TH ANNIVERSARY-FILE
(FILES) This file photo from around 1907 shows cooks making a meal for Panama Canal workers in the canal zone. The canal was completed in ten years at the cost of 387 million USD. Next August 15 marks the 100th anniversary of the Panama Canal, considered to be one of the 20th century's marvels of engineering and through which goes five percent of the maritime world trade. Panama took control of the 80-km-long canal and the 1,426-square-km enclave that surrounds it at midnight on December 31, 1999 according to the 1977 handover treaty signed by then-presidents of the US, Jimmy Carter and Panama, Omar Torrijos.
