Lacks physical freedom?!? Panama is an incredible country, if you talk about criminality I never had problems there and you must understand that usually in all America (including US) criminality is for specific zones of the city/country (“red zones”, nothing to do with sex...) so generally there are zones safe as Europe. I’ll say that actually living in 50% of Panama - Cangrejo, all Avenida Balboa, Pacifico, etc - is way safer than living in London or in Paris. Of course Dubai can be a lot safer than Panama but we are talking about an oasis in the desert - literally!
Means you weren't here during the lockdown craze.
And you didn't see the people gunfighting with the police and ransacking shops.
What you are saying used to be true in 2019, I live near where you are living one of the best areas because im surrounded by banks on 4 sides very strategic location for my work.
Remember when the government broke promises of opening up for like 6 months that I was stuck in the UK for not being able to go back to Panama? I only had 3 choices as an Asian at that time - USA, UK, and Mexico.
Are you even aware of M W F schedule for women and T Th for Men? and no go out weekends, and not to forget night time curfews, and having wear mask everywhere and measure temperatures wtf we living in 1984 time???
The government propaganda says OH WE WILL OPEN UP and only now they are starting to keep promises but remember they can always go back being unreasonable with germophobe propaganda.
Mexican embassy was full of people trying to gtfo from Panama to become a resident of Mexico even until now Mexitel bookings are full, this is not normal, ofcs embamex panama being lazy af contributes to that.
I run a small telegram group for like minded freedom loving people, they are condemning the actions of Panama government I myself is a victim of germophobic propaganda and justified restrictions. My friends left Panama for Brazil, which actually gives more freedom and doesn't give a f**k about what you do while in this country they are starting to track where you go with the app that you don't want to install on your phone. Right now we have option to opt out but I do not think i will have that option soon.
If you are staying in Europe or somewhere that still hasn't lost its sanity, enjoy your stay there, if you are here, you should know what im talking about.
Best regards~
