...and that's the Second
Kisarazu Artificial lsland.
:06:47
450,000 square
meters in total area.
:06:51
That and the artificial island off the coast
of Kawasaki are the key points of this project.
:06:56
When it's done,
the project will be in its final stage.
:07:00
Then we'll construct a 15 km long dike
to connect both islands to each other...
:07:07
...and to Kawasaki and
Kisarazu on the mainland.
:07:11
When the project is complete it will not only
provide a highway that circumvents the metropolis...
:07:17
...but it'll use tidal height differences
to drain the water from the area.
:07:22
In ten years it'll have created 45,
000 hectares of new land.
:07:30
Enough to eliminate our land
problems for the rest of the century.
:07:37
Like Babylon,
Tokyo will be an eternal paradise.
:07:45
Project Babylon...
the biggest project of the century.
:07:48
Given the difficulty of the
adjustments facing the participants...
:07:54
...it might not've been completed in this century.
But Labor systems made it possible.
:07:59
The basic research was
completed in the late 80's.
