He can have a third party perform the entire task however he would have to allow the third party to drive it to obtain the revisado unless you could get the revisado folks to photograph the car where it's currently located. As for renewing early, the revisado must be dated the month of the registration renewal.

It's urban planning and access management 101 that you learn in engineering or business school.

Marcelyn, You wrote: "Still question why PriceSmart does not have a traffic light for turning to their store?" Because they cost about $15,000 for the study and equipment and many government bodies, local, provincial, or federal, do not include requirements for infrastructure improvements when approving commercial permits. That amount of money is a drop in the bucket for Pricesmart but unfortunately greed has a higher priority than safety.

City Mall is indicated in the attached aerial by the dashed red lines.

I've never experienced any success with Pricesmart's hamburger meat. Not enough fat. If I want fat, I purchase it from El Rey in David. If I want flavor and less fat I purchase it from Super99. If I'm creative, I mix the two. If you've got the time and don't mind spending more, the butcher by the old Policia National headquarters usually stocks ground beef with 20 to 30% fat. Sometimes he stocks the same but a pre-seasoned blend for a local restaurant and the flavor is off the charts. My experience is the meat tastes better if the seasoning is ground in with the meat. Of course he won't tell you which restaurant the blend is for. I just picked up five pounds of ground pork containing 30% fat from Palacio's to make Italian sausages, they do custom orders on the spot.

The Galleria Central mall is now about 90% occupied. The Polo store is having a sale, up to 70% off. We got some nice shirts today at 50% off. The mall is located in the lower left hand corner of the attached map. It's easy to get to, just take via Boquete over the bridge and keep driving until it dead ends and it's on the right. There's a Subway sandwich shop along with a Kotowa coffee shop too. A nice convenient treasure in town. http://www.galeria-central.com/

Sorry Keith, I live in a Panamanian neighborhood and that's how everyone here refers to the electric company. Just like when us gringos say "Is your power out?" or "Is your electricity out?" here they say "Tienes luz?" I'm giving you an up vote for catching that!

A category that the US isn't the worst in!

I've worked as an electrical engineer in many countries and I'm in fact retired from a regulated utility. I'm not familiar with the service levels that Union Fenosa has guaranteed Panama but if they're anything like what's mainstream throughout the world then Union Fenosa possesses the ability to deliver A+ to C- level of service without violating their contract so it is plausible.

If Union Fenosa is like other unscrupulous regulated utilities then get used to the outages until President Varela allows the rate hikes.

Sheila, Perhaps you guys should have two contests for best of, one for the public and one for the chefs.

Whskyman, Agreed. The whole Rodney gringo hotline thing baffles me.

Keith, I probably should've used the word "management" since the fact remains there's an entirely new staff on board there. Sorry for the confusion.

Keith, You're right, it's not like in the US where when you call a business telephone number you're prompted with "Press "1" for English." I sure hope it stays that way.

And the new owners of Casa del Jamon no longer keep their store open on Sundays, the El Rey in David remodeled and their above head signs are no longer in Spanish and English, and the RibaSmith website no longer has an English translation option. Maybe it's time to go!

Perhaps Panama should begin the deportations of US citizens.

US embassies have essentially become welcome centers for new citizens.

Does anyone have an estimate on how much longer it will take to get in and out of town when using the Ave Belisario Porras bypass for via Boquete?

It's not looking good for travelers.

Why was Volcan's hospital completed and not Boquete's?

When purchasing a new keyboard and mouse combo at PARS in David I wanted to ensure that I had selected one with an English keyboard layout. Most of the boxes are labeled either Spanish or English but this box wasn't. I asked one of the clerks if they could verify it for me since I didn't want to break the seal. She opened the box and removed the keyboard and verified it was in fact an English keyboard layout. I then asked her to very that the mouse too was English. She didn't hesitate and pulled out the mouse but then stopped and looked at me and laughed. I bet she doesn't fall for that again!

It's never really been about being able to, it's more about the social impact. Look at the problems with the US/Mexico border crossings, Panama simply doesn't want to deal with that.

Shipping containers from the canal destined for Costa Rica could be picked up a lot easier at the border instead of requiring truckers to enter Panama and vice versa. Even shipments beyond Costa Rica would be easier since the truckers would have one less country to deal with.
