    MRWOOHOO Just heard something about Bocas

    Hi folks,
    Just in case anybody is thinking about going to Bocas in the near future you may want to read this. It seems as though there is some discussion in regards to ownership of some of the land.

    Isn't that good for people who are moving there and planning to buy their own land rather than just squat?

    this quote from the article "Now, as foreign investment transforms these languid islands, Jiménez' family faces eviction from a Naples developer who claims he bought the property from a third party" should tell it all - the "developer" would most assuredly be in direct violation of costal waterways setbacks and soverignty as all nations under the Haugue have adopted - I would side with the old timer in this case

    The Panama govt needs to step in and protect the locals. This is the locals country, don't let big money ruin it. Did you see the part about the developers with guards carrying machine guns on the beach? The Developers are ready to start shooting at each other.

    They sound like thugs, not businessmen. It is a shame.
