The Cabinet Council endorsed the updated National-Provincial Reopening Plan, which is based on biosafety indicators and the effective reproduction rate of covid-19 cases, and contemplates starting to reopen productive activities as of September 7.
Following the implementation of this plan, the construction industry and related activities (engineers, architects, project managers, contractors, moving and hauling services), the Panama Pacifico Special Economic Area, the Colon Free Zone and free zones, private marinas and sport fishing, as well as tailors and dressmakers, shoe shops and car wash will reopen in the country on September 7.
After President Cortizo partially banned the moratorium bill, the National Assembly discussed the initiative in a second debate, which was unnecessary for the Superintendent of Banks, who said that the banks had already implemented the necessary measures.
Despite the fact that on May 4 President Laurentino Cortizo and the representative of the Panamanian Banking Association, Aimee de Grimaldo, signed an agreement to extend the moratorium until December 31, 2020 due to the economic crisis caused by covid-19, the deputies declared themselves in permanent session to discuss the moratorium project (already banned by the president) in second debate in extraordinary sessions from June 15 to 18.
In order to prevent the spread of covid-19, all international flights have been suspended since March 22.
Panamanian President Laurentino Cortizo reported through his social networks that "... As of Sunday, March 22nd at 11:59 pm (04H00 GMT on Monday), arrivals and departures of all international flights to our country will be suspended for a period of 30 days."
