  1. no smoking is safe let alone smokin cigars like panama. its a canal. do your homework somewhere else


  2. Panama is quite safe, much safer than North America. Try this web page for more information on Panama crime:

    http://www.panamalaw.org/panama_crime_an...

  3. Its very safe and is not dogged by vicous street gangs like some other central american countries. Women are stunning and English is widely spoken.

  4. In general it is much safer than visiting my hometown, Tampa.  Like Tampa, there are some barrios you would not want to walk through after dark.  But the center of Panama City is very safe as are the National Parks, nature reserves and nativo communities.

  5. please explain what are you saying  ?

  6. I VISITED PANAMA PERSONALLY. HOW EVER ALWAYS BE CAREFULLY, AND IT IS MOST SAFER THAN OTHER LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES. BUT ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN. ALWAYS BE AWARE...OK

    ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN AT ANYTIME AT ANY-PLACE...

  7. One of Van Halen's best. It's never hurt me.

  8. have a look at these sites:

  9. I have looked on the Foreign Office 'Advice to travellers' site: Here are extracts for you:

    Travel to the Darien province should be conducted only with an organised group, and to recognised tourist destinations protected by the Panamanian police (see Local Travel section below).

    There are sporadic demonstrations in Panama City about various social and political issues (see Political Situation below).  You should avoid all demonstrations and monitor local media for up to date information.

    Around 7,500 British tourists/nationals visit Panama every year. Most visits are trouble-free.  The main type of incident for which British nationals require consular assistance in Panama is theft of personal belongings, or being arrested for possession of drugs.

    We strongly recommend that you obtain comprehensive travel and medical insurance before travelling.  You are advised to check any exclusions, and that your policy covers you for the activities you want to undertake.  Please see: Travel Insurance

    PS: The father of a young lady with whom I work, lives in Panama and has had no problems. She has been there to visit him and says its great!
