Panama is currently dealing with a number of issues that will determine whether or not the country will continue to be a top destination for tourists and retirees. Much of the future will depend on who is elected to run the country next year.
SECURITY REFORM
The current administration is hashing out details of new security reform which has some wondering if the new measures will lead to a return of Panama’s military. President Martin Torrijos was granted “special powers†by the National Assembly but has been pretty quiet about the details of his decisions. What is known is that though currently prohibited, future leaders will be able nominate a uniformed head of the National Police, a practice which is currently prohibited. These reforms have some expats worried that Panama will reinstate the military and leave the doors open to a situation which lead to the rise of General Noriega.
