I was reviewing a previously released presentation of the plans for the third phase of the coastal highway in Panama City and if I had seen this 5  years ago, I would have been skeptical that it would ever become a reality.   As I have seen the growth and development here in Panama first hand since then , I have got to believe that we will see much more to come in the future when this project is complete.  While it remains controversial and many do not want to see it happen, Panama will continue to grow into a world class city like Hong Kong and Singapore.  And like those cities, there will be some growing pains but in the end, Panama will take it’s place as be the Capital of the Americas.  See the presentation video here
