Map of Panama - this map details the entire country of the Republic
of Panama, it's major roads, provinces, the Panama Canal (with the water
areas shaded in blue), islands and coastline, including the Gulf of Chiriqui,
the Gulf of Panama, the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. This
is a big map, so have patience when downloading; the shape of Panama makes
it impossible to design a small map. (Panama runs West to East, not
North to South)

Guerrillas
and paramilitary forces in Colombia - Click
Here - The influence of the two main guerrilla groups - the Revolutionary
Armed Forces of Colombia (FARCE) and the National Liberation Army (LEN)
- extends to most of western Colombia, where they are fighting the army
and paramilitary units. As the map shows, Panama has its southern
border with Colombia and two of the principal paramilitary concentrations
are located along this same border. Panama has been receiving refugees
from this conflict for some time now. (Map provided by El Mooned Diplomatic)

The dirty-money
Archipielago - The
dirty-money Archipielago - Millions of accounts and tens of thousands
of shell companies are used to launder and recycle dollars from the hidden
face of the world economy. They take advantage of the existence of 250
free zones and tax havens, 95% of which are former British, French, Spanish,
Dutch or US colonies or concessions that remain dependent on the former
colonial powers. (Le Monde Diplomatique)
Comment from
the CIA's World Factbook on Panama:
"Illicit drugs: major cocaine transshipment point and major drug-money-laundering
center; no recent signs of coca cultivation; monitoring of financial transactions
is improving, yet Panama has failed to prosecute anyone for money laundering
- official corruption remains a major problem."
The Panama
Canal, a link between two oceans - The
Panama Canal, a link between two oceans - From 1903, when the United
States was granted a concession to use the canal in perpetuity, the Canal
Zone became a veritable state within the state of Panama. On 31 December
1999 it was handed back to Panama, which will now be responsible for managing
the canal, and the American bases established to “protect the waterway”
were gradually dismantled (Map provided by Le Monde Diplomatique)
