  1. JohnF13, You're 100% correct. Watch the following movie, it's being shunned by many. Michael Moore Presents: Planet of the Humans - Full Documentary Directed by Jeff Gibbs 8,699,373 views Apr 21, 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk11vI-7czE
  2. The ban is the only issue that I'm aware of with Huawei, perhaps you could share with us any additional information you may have. As for that Canadian being arrested, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police saw merit in the charges and thus arrested them and proceeded with an extradition trail.
  3. In addition to the US, many countries throughout the world have instated "bans" on further Huawei communications installments. This "ban" is only of concern to nations who are innovators in technology and or who are of global strategic military significance. Japan who by far leads the world in innovation to name one. Militarily wise, specifically NATO members, the US in North America and Australia in the South Pacific, for their dominant nuclear military strength and strategic geographically located military installations respectively. We're lucky here in Latin America like in many parts of the world in that there's very little if none at all technological innovation and certainly no significant military installations to speak of. Here we're blessed with the tranquility of nature, agriculture, and tourism.
  4. NYC's mayor Bill De Blasio downplayed the Coronavirus eight time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JZ0Ruh89f0 I can flood this discussion with dozens of Youtube videos of other politicians such as NYC's director of public health Oxiris Barbot, NY's governor Andrew Cuomo, and Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi downplaying the Corona virus numerous times both in press briefings and television shows recently as three weeks ago but that's beyond the scope of the charter of Chiriqui Life. It was my understanding that the discussion of US politics was forbidden here.
  5. The Daily Show? A late night comedy television show. "The Daily Show is an American late-night talk and news satire television program. It airs each Monday through Thursday on Comedy Central. Describing itself as a fake news program, The Daily Show draws its comedy and satire from recent news stories, political figures, media organizations, and often uses self-referential humor as well." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Daily_Show
  6. Fox News continues to provide excellent, up-to-date global coverage which I've been following. Panama to prohibit movement during coronavirus outbreak based on gender https://www.foxnews.com/world/panama-prohibit-movement-coronavirus-gender
  7. Keith, What conspiracy theories has the US been offering? I've read about the conspiracy theory that the CIA planted the Coronavirus in China but that certainly wasn't the US's doing. Conversely, many throughout the world have speculated that China hasn't been forthcoming with the Coronavirus.
  8. Brundageba, As you can imagine, a network of pressure regulators for an entire subdivision would be costly in addition to the costs associated with the required routine maintenance. When I evaluated the Brisas subdivision years ago the realtor stated that within the year the roads were going to be repaved as well as the completion of a club house and pool too. They also told me that they were going to expand the road to Lucero to four lanes. Don't get me started on the realtors here in Boquete! As for adequate water service for that new subdivision on the road to Caldera, well, I think they're still trying to figure out how to supply water to Ricardo Perez's new 1,200 home subdivision in El Frances. Your guess is as good as any ones!
  9. When I purchased my home I noticed small puddles of water behind one of the toilets and under the kitchen sink in the cabinet below every once in a while. It didn't happen often but when I mentioned it to my neighbors they informed me that our neighborhood routinely experioences water pressures above 100 PSI which is in the danger zone for residential quality plumbing. I had Grupo Aguas install a pressure regulator with my backup pump/tank system as seen in the attached photo and the problem never occurred again. It's calibrated to only allow 60 PSI of municipal water to flow with my backup pump/tank system providing only 50 PSI in the event of a water outage which easily informs me (if I can't hear the pump turn on while it's raining) that there is low pressure or none at all as to warn me not to do laundry. This differential in pressure is also noticeable during a shower indicating that there's an outage so that I know to conserve. I recall the price of the pressure regulator being about $75 which of course is peanuts compared to the potential costs of repair due to dangerously high water pressures. And I strongly recommend pressure regulators constructed of brass, not ones constructed of PVC.
  10. Some very interesting comments about Boquete both in the Youtube video below and the associated public comments. My favorite: "Living in the Boquete area the past 8 years...let me tell you about the downside. ..... find a gated community with armed guards." I think I've visited every gated community here in Boquete over the years and I never recall seeing armed guards! **** Best Place to Retire in the World - Boquete Panama ( Growing Up Without Borders ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlwXNSUFVW0& ****
  11. Keith, You wrote: "I don't think the Speaker in Canada's Parliament or the U.S. Congress would allow this radical's defamatory rhetoric." You apparently didn't have the opportunity to watch the recent impeachment hearings in the U.S. Congress, you would've thought they were prosecuting Attila the Hun!
  12. It looks as though an old time practice may end here in Boquete. People can no longer charge for parking in public areas or right of ways and may be subject to fines of $100 to $500.
