Martinelli's fascist rule, killing of opponents, harassment of the opposition and journalists, and assault on the environment are resulting in an emerging tourist boycott of Panama.
Today, Friday, The national assembly continues its second debate about the so-called "ley chorizo". How Martinelli wants to appease the Motta family and civil society protests police impunity, anti-environment and anti-labor measures.
We're getting instant updates from environmental activists who have made their way into the National Assembly in an attempt to put an end to the "sausage law" that eliminates the need for environmental impact studies for Martinelli-approved projects; violates the workers' right to strike and gives the police total impunity for whatever crimes they commit.
