U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) promotes Panama as Tourist Destination. A ceremony was held in Washington, D.C.; Panama's President, Martin Torrijos Espino and the U.S. Ambassador to Panama William A. Eaton as well as the National Geographic Society (NGS) participated in the event.
"A waterproof version of the map will identify areas with the most interest for tourists such as Kuna Yala, Las Perlas Archipelago, and the Panama Canal. The map will be translated into languages other than English and will be available through National Geographic channels. A companion guide book, National Geographic Traveler: Panama, will be released in the fall."
Robert Hernandez, National Geographic Society's Senior Vice President of International Licensing and Alliances said: "They will make Panama and its extraordinary natural and cultural resources better known among global audiences."
Sounds like a lot of people will be visiting Panama soon... Woot!
