A small group of semitrailer drivers are blocking cargo transit in  protest over what they say are &#8220;excessive&#8221; inspections by Panamanian  officials.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news_body\">\n<p>A group of 17 semitrailers are blocking passage through  the main road at Paso Canoas, the Costa Rican stretch of the border with  Panama.<\/p>\n<p>Truck drivers began the protest on Saturday to denounce  alleged \u201cexcessive inspections\u201d performed by officials from Panama\u2019s  State Border Service (SENAFRONT). According to the protesters, SENAFRONT  officials have been levying hefty fines for vehicle violations in  recent days.<\/p>\n<p>The result of the demonstration is a long line of  semis waiting to cross the border, with 200 cargo trucks on the Costa  Rican side and some 500 trucks in Panama. Non-commercial vehicles and  buses are not being blocked from crossing the border.<\/p>\n<p>The drivers  also claim that SENAFRONT officials have confiscated keys to their  vehicles, despite the fact that Panama\u2019s legislation grants motorists up  to 30 days to pay a fine.<\/p>\n<p>The Panamanian daily La Estrella on  Monday reported that truck drivers also said that officials are  requiring that Tico drivers with citations return to Paso Canoas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe  nearest facility to pay a fine is more than 30 kilometers from that  location, and they are only open Monday-Friday during business hours,\u201d  Juan Carlos Segura, a protest leader, told La Estrella.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile,  drivers are having to spend up to three days at the border while they  search for an authorized location to pay the fines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis causes  serious losses, especially to those transporting perishable goods such  as meat, fruits or vegetables,\u201d Segura added.<\/p>\n<p>Francisco Quir\u00f3s,  director of Costa Rica\u2019s Chamber of Cargo Drivers, said they are  evaluating the situation, but they believe SENAFROT \u201cseems particularly  focused on trucks with Costa Rican license plates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said that officials from that agency \u201ctake up to four hours to perform inspections on Tico trucks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Panama&#8217;s  President Ricardo Martinelli said at a public event on Monday that &#8220;it  seems that the Costa Rican-Panamanian border is a place outside the  [control of the] government of Costa Rica,&#8221; referring to what he  believes is disinterest by the Costa Rican government regarding the  border situation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We will defend the interests of Panamanians who  also are being harmed, because there is an agreement that Costa Rica  simply has not met,&#8221; the president added.<\/p>\n<p>Martinelli said Foreign  Minister Fernando N\u00fa\u00f1ez traveled to San Jos\u00e9 to discuss the issue with  his Costa Rican\u00a0counterpart, Enrique Castillo.<\/p>\n<p>In March, Costa  Rican truckers blocked for nearly a week commercial transit at Paso  Canoas, citing the same issues. Those protests cost some $2 million in  losses, according to estimates by Panamanian truckers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>HERE IS A GOOD EDITORIAL ON THE SUBJECT<\/p>\n<p>Conflicts of interest between carriers and the apathy of the  authorities of Costa Rica and Panama have kept the border blocked for  all regional trade.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not just that immigration and <span class=\"hlink\">customs<\/span> officials do not provide a 24 hour service, as is needed, and as occurs  at other Central American borders, but that in Paso Canoas, the <span class=\"hlink\">governments<\/span> of Costa Rica and <span class=\"hlink\">Panama<\/span> are not exercising their authority in a responsible manner, resulting  in conflicts for one reason or another, with consequent blockades and  closures that produce serious economic losses not only for Panamanians  and Costa Ricans, but also for all Central American companies whose  imports or exports pass through this border.<\/p>\n<p>In relation to the current closure of Paso Canoas caused by blockades by  some Costa Rican truckers, an article in Prensa.com reports that  &#8220;Regarding the situation at the border, Foreign Minister Fernando Nunez  Fabrega said &#8220;the diplomatic part has been done. I think the minister  [Jose Raul] Mulino will at some point talk about this subject &#8220;&#8230; and  that &#8220;Deianira Ramirez, in charge of business affairs at the Embassy of  Costa Rica in Panama, said that Costa Rica has reiterated its adherence  to the law and is even proposing amendments to be submitted to the  Assembly, in order to ensure the dynamic movement of people and vehicles  at the border. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For its part, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in <span class=\"hlink\">Costa Rica<\/span> issued an innocuous statement which affirms its &#8220;willingness to take  the necessary measures, including modifications that will be forwarded  to the Legislative Assembly, to ensure, definitively, the dynamic flow  and mobility of people and traffic along its border with neighboring  Panama. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We only see a lot of talk, rather than specific actions being taken to  ensure ongoing efficiency in the movement of people and goods, at a  border crossing of prime importance to the regional economy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"link_source\">Source: Prensa.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>People often ask me about driving to Costa Rica and I
