Martinelli has cancelled a trip to Mexico and remains invisible now that Italian prosecutors and witnesses have revealed details about him and others receiving massive bribes from Valter Lavitola.
Angelica MaytÃn of Bribery International just presented the annual Cost of Business Index, but the real news is that despite all the hype no progress has been made in poverty reduction, at all.
With the Italian Finnmeccanica scandal rapidly expanding, the fact that Panama's president Martinelli is an Italian citizen as well may hold unpleasant consequences - for him. Take him away!
Berlusconi will probably take care of Noriega if Martinelli can keep Valter Lavitola, for whom Italian prosecutors issued an arrest warrant, safe in Panama.
Since our visionary Martinelli rammed this "sausage law" through the assembly, our heroic national police has become increasingly creative cooking up new schemes for fun and profit. They've now introduced a new attraction to Boquete: Beat up environmentalists!
The only ones who are totally unaffected by the law are the criminals. They never cared for licenses and other gun-rules anyway, so the new measures won't change that much for them. Well done, Mulino!
