The multi-billion pound scheme to widen the canal was announced last month, but officials have suffered a series of false starts
When the Egyptian government proudly announced plans to build a new Suez Canal last month, officials were so puffed up with pride that they took the time-honoured step of commissioning a series of stamps to mark the £2.4 billion project.
But in an embarrassing start to the scheme, it appears that the stamps are not all they seem – the designers have managed to mix up their canals.
Instead of featuring photographs taken only in Egypt, the stamps have been printed with pictures of the other world famous canal that runs through Panama.
“Egypt issues stamps of “new Suez Canal”, but steals an image of the #Panama Canal instead,” tweeted Amro Ali, an academic from the coastal city of Alexandria. “Major fail”.
