Monday, September 26, 2011


Panama’s tourism industry, particularly the hotel sector is about to get a double financial shot in the arm.

The first representatives of 195 nations have begun to arrive to do the set-up work for a major UN meeting in Panama from October 1-7 by which time 5,000 delegates, and hundreds of journalists and observers will have arrived.

The visit coincides with the World Baseball championships, which will welcome teams, and supportes from around the world, so hotels and restaurants will be hopping and, for some casual visitors ther may be no room at the inn.
