Bering strait: barrier of time, space, history and ideology
The Bering Strait Project international ideas competition: Click to see
The Bering strait is the place where the barrier of time, space, history and ideology are revealed most dramatically. The goal of the project is to build a bridge or a tunnel bridging the gap of space and time, to lay a world highway running from London to New York, from the Cape of Good Hope to Santiago. Eventually, it aims to remove the barrier of human race, culture, religion, and nations by letting this obstructed way flow and to bring peace to the world. What the FPU proposes for the Bering Strait Project can be rephrased as an elimination of all the barriers like spatial disconnection of national borders and chronological disconnection of today and tomorrow, and thus, stepping forward to peace and prosperity for all earth and mankind. |

The Bering Strait Project has the following significances in that it attempts to connect two continents at both ends of the strait. First, it is an enormous challenge and a historical event showing the human spirit of challenge and the dream for the future society. It brings the message that mankind should be prepared for the future world of harmony and connection rather than of separation and disjunction. This project will be a new attempt for the future society. Second, this kind of a large scale project requires mutual efforts of not only America and Russia but also all the people and nations, no matter who they are. Through the process, mankind can cooperate and communicate with each other better.

Proposal for a Trans Global Highway "I would like to go from New York City to London. By car. Before the end of my life, I would like to drive from New York City to Alaska and go through the AmerAsian Peace Tunnel across the Bering Strait, connecting the United States with Russia. From there, I plan to drive south along the trans Siberia highway and cross under the bay from Siberia to the Sakhalin Island (Russia), which is known for its natural beauty and enormous mineral and gas reserves. From Sakhalin, I will drive to Japan, via the Sakhalin-Hokkaido Friendship Tunnel and then to the main Japanese island of Honshu through the 33.5 mile / 50km long Seikan ocean tunnel (built in 1988), and on to Tokyo. From there I plan to go to southern Honshu and cross over the (existing) bridge to the southern Japanese island of Kyushu and from there, through the Korean-Japan Friendship Tunnel. Going through the open borders of the Korea's, I plan to than drive through China,
