FLU death toll rises to 18: situation “normal”
Posted on June 13, 2016 in Panama
Post Views: 50THE DEATH TOLL from the influenza outbreak climbed to 18 on Monday June 13, with two deaths recorded in Colon but the number of affected patients is described as “normal.”
West Panama, , David, Santiago, San Miguelito and Freshwater, are some of the areas where deaths have occurred.
At a Presidency press conference, Nestor Sosa, director general of the Gorgas Memorial Institute for Health Studies , reported that of the 18 deaths, 15 were from people who had risk factors.
By the time of the conference 607 patients had been hospitalized with Severe Acute Respiratory Infection, 220 of whom have already been discharged. 35% of the cases were related to A H1N1 flu.
Sosa said that the health authorities have not declared a health epidemic because the number of patients so far is ‘normal’.
“The unusual factor is the number of people requiring hospitalization,” Sosa said.
However the alert continues because of the unusual increase in the number of people affected.
Since mid-April, 800,000 people have been vaccinated against influenza. It is expected that in the coming days, 1,180,000 vaccines arrive in the country to be applied to the entire population.
Health authorities reported that so far no recommendations have been made to suspend the opening ceremony of the third set of locks of the Panama Canal, on June 26 . However, they requested sick people refrain from attending the event, to prevent further infections. Over 21,000 tickets have been distributed to the public and special guests including many heads of state, and celebrities.
Authorities also ruled out the closure of borders because of the virus
Meanwhile scores of thousands of students returned to school on Monday, but teachers at one school in Chorrera voted to send the children home.
Meanwhile Itza Barahona de Mosca, MoH National Director of Health emphasized that it “is not charging for injections, nor for the vaccine card.”

OPINION: Canal expansion and brain drain

The first mega vessel to test the new locksPost Views: 31Hoyporhoy, La Prensa, June 12
ONE OF THE most important civil engineering works in the world will be unveiled in two weeks, which will raise the isthmus to a higher level in trade and global logistics.
It is precisely now that scientists, researchers and Panamanian entrepreneurs should make known to the world their ability and ingenuity.
However, this possibility is becoming more distant. For example, the National Secretariat of Science, Technology and Innovation sees severe cuts to its funds , bringing the total national investment in innovation and development to only 0.2% of the country’s Gross Domestic Product.. In contrast, Costa Rica invests 0.48% United States 2.79% and Asian Tigers to 3.5% of their national income to create and innovate.
Undoubtedly, this unfortunate situation will have serious consequences for the sustainable development of our society, without the leakage of the brightest minds in search of better opportunities who decide to migrate to other countries.
It would be unforgivable to forget that a country that allows the flight of top talent is doomed to underdevelopment.

The Cocle regional MoH director, Ana Maria Martin, said that the girl arrived at the Regional Hospital Rafael Estevez in Aguadulce and was later moved to Panama City, but died on the way.

A total of 35 people are in intensive care (21 in the MoH and 14 in CSS).

With the exception of the original post that started this topic, everything else is unsettling at best.
Re Judy's incident, color me naïve or ignorant (perhaps both), but what good would a passport be for a robber? Is there an aftermarket for passports?
I am especially saddened at the loss of a child. Any killing is bad, but an innocent child?!
More naïveté on my part: Are gangs that much of an issue in Panama? In Chiriqui? In Boquete? It would appear so from this topic: 170 police raiding 20 sites for gangs, guns, and more? All in the David area. And 250 gang members arrested so far this year. Where have I been? Obviously not reading the news.

Bonnie, our thoughts and prayers go out for you and Larry. Please keep us all updated at major milestones in his recovery.

A PIF must have a registered agent, yes. Must the registered agent pay the Tasa Unica, no.
I understand some attorneys will say or infer that a registered agent must pay the Tasa Unica, but nope. Such a statement would be for obvious reasons.
-
I have taken care of this task myself for many years. Only fill out one form (using all the numbers from the prior year's form), spend a few minutes in line at the bank, and it is done. Best news is no agent fee involved.
Was not aware the Tasa Unica could be paid at Caja Ahorros. Will keep that in mind in case the lines at BN in Boquete are too long.

Disclaimer: I am NOT a lawyer and am not giving legal advice here.
It is my understanding and experience that anyone is free to petition the government.
The sensitivity comes when the public action (such as posting political signs in one's yard, etc.) is political in nature, in which one is attempting to influence elections or governmental processes (as opposed to actions) within Panama. We have lots of experience with locals and expats signing petitions about some of our hobby activities. There are literally hundreds of expats who have signed various petitions without difficulty.

US Ambassador holds out hope for Felix Maduro
Posted on June 3, 2016 in Panama
Post Views: 45ONCE THE CHAINS linking Panama’s 139 years old Felix B Maduro department store to Abdul Waked are broken, it may be able leave the Clinton List of activities linked to money laundering and drug trafficking.
That’s the hope of John Feeley US ambassador to Panama,expressed Friday, June 3 in an interview with radio station La Exitosa.
“There is a transparent process that those involved in the list may take action to rectify the situation,” On Wednesday, the United States Department of the Treasury, through its Bureau of Foreign Assets (OFAC), endorsed a series of actions that will allow Felix B. Maduro to “break the ownership and control links” with Waked said Feeley
“It’s the first time in the history of the OFAC we have established and accepted a Trust to make the transfer,” said the ambassador.
“As the minister [Dulcidio De La Guardia] aid, the decision is in the hands of Mr. Abdul Waked. I wish him to take actions so their employees or former employees can continue working in the future with dignity in Panama,” he said.
He was also satisfied because Mawa Enterprises Corp., a company with operations in the Colon Free Zone (CFZ), was withdrawn from the Clinton List on Friay , “because they have removed the links they had with the group Waked and th , United States acknowledges that they have no problem to access the US financial banking system. ”
Feeley also lamented the “uncertainty” that Waked workers are currently enduring.
“There are always employees who pay the piper of heads. I cannot tell you how many times I have spoken with President [Juan Carlos Varela], with ministers who are on the committee, to try to find the formula to protect most of theworkers. I’m not going to cover the sun with my finger and say it will be possible to preserve all jobs, “he said.
Feeley stressed that the actions undertaken by OFAC are not the product of a “whim”.
“We do not take these actions because we are imperialist gringos with fangs in a distant country. We take those actions simply to protect our families in the United States, who do not want their banking system exposed to money from drug money laundering”.

Electronic Invoicing in Panama
A contract has been awarded for the design and implementation of an electronic billing system that automates the process of reporting taxes and tax collection.
Thursday, June 2, 2016
Through a direct recruitment process the Directorate General of Revenue (DGI by its initials in Spanish) has selected Centro Interamericano de Administraciones Tributarias (CIAT) to design and implement an electronic billing system for the country.
Prensa.com reports that "...The contract, published in PanamáCompra, is valued at 2.2 million dollars and seeks to "strengthen controls and fiscal intelligence aimed at reducing levels of non-compliance, tax evasion and fraud," according to a document signed by Publio Cortés, Director General of Revenue. "
Regarding the future of fiscal printers implemented during the Martinelli administration, Cortes told Prensa.com that "... 'In other countries where the experiences of implementing electronic invoicing have been successful, fiscal equipment coexists with electronic invoicing, especially in those segments where controls on billing are more efficient through use of this equipment, such as sales to end consumers. Other countries have implemented a process of progressive replacement of equipment with electronic tax invoices. In the case of Panama, this decision must be evaluated in due course in order to determine what would be best according to the characteristics of the Panamanian market. ' "Source: Prensa.com
