Boquete, Panama

December 2, 2008

It's not likely to happen, but those good ol' boys at FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) in the United States could learn a thing or two about restoring city services and arterials by watching how we do it in Panama.

Panamanian President Martin Torrijos wasted little time when he ordered a fleet of heavy equipment and an army of operators and technicians to descend upon Boquete to repair gaping roadway holes, move tons of earth and restring miles of electric and communication cable.

Residents, business owners, tourists and travelers were left speechless as they observed the skillfully orchestrated restoration mission.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
