Like with many small organizations such as middle-schools or squash associations or nursing homes, it is big news when a Panamanian makes the news outside of Panama. No matter the subject, socio-economic bracket, or moral standards, if a Panamanian is in the news outside of Panama, he/she will be revered for life back in Panama. It is important to note, however, that Panamanians are uninterested in their own celebrities as long as they are in Panama. The second they take a step on foreign soil, though: even a successful bowel movement would make Panamanians tingle with pride.
As long as they are involved in an event in another country — the World Cup, for example — all Panamanians need to do is wave a Panamanian flag to get substantial airtime on the local Panama news.
A good way to make Panamanians feel good is to make reference to one of the several professional baseball players they have playing in the MLB. A way to make Panamanians feel really good is to ask them if they’ve ever run into Irving Saladino at Bennigan’s. And if you want to make Panamanians feel on top of the world, just talk about Margarita. They love her.
We love Roberto “Manos de Piedra” Durán, we don’t care about Margarita.
Delmiro should run this blog, Panamaniac.
Vacationed in Panama fell in love with it and it’s plepoe made a lot of friends decided, This is the place I want to retire. Entered a real estate contract and now it’s a night mare 3 diffrent attorneys 3 years large down payment run around from developer Destiney who lied to me mis led me in contract. Nikki Beach playa Blanca has made me sick. Purchased what I thought according to my broker developer and the attorny was a residence to live in for retirement is only a time share. I found this out after a year of run around from a new sales person that the developer made a mistake and the gov,t said that because this was really a hotel and I could really stay there for only 7 months a year. TIME SHARE not what I signed a contract for. Now the country I told everyone I love I am beggining to hate. Consumer protection Panama tried to help and was lied to given the run around for months,and they just gave up. Destiney Real Estate has a family member as a attorney and they uses the Panama system to their benifit. Think Three Four Five times before buying Real Estae here. YO ODEIO NIKKI BEACH PLAYA BLanca. I still love Panama and my friends I hope I can still resolve the problem here and I would probably THINk about it and still buy a property in Panama.
Panama real estate has scam written all over it. Makes me sad for the middle class hard working retirees that get taken over here.
Hell yea lol, bring out our baseball players or even the reggea rap artists on the air in New York for example and we start shouting!
Por eso no me mezclo con la gente de la capital ni de Colon en gringolandia. Bola de rakas maleantes!
