Apatel calls for the promotion of attractions in the province

President of the association Panama Hotel Association (Apatel), Raúl Jiménezhe explained the importance of simplifying the visitor entry process at the Paso Canoas border crossing between Panama and Costa Rica, including the Río Sereno, the internationalization of flights at Enrique Malek Airport and the promotion of seaports in the west of the country.
During the meeting with representatives of the private sector in ChiriquiJiménez pointed out that Paso Canoas represents the main land corridor between the two countries, and it is necessary to implement measures at this border crossing in order to speed up the entry of visitors.
“Together, the province of Chiriquí represents the second most visited destination in the country. There are about 50 hotels operating in this region and it is necessary to improve the tourist offer it has for the arrival of visitors”, he said.
Accompanied by the president in Center for Competitiveness of the Western Region (Cecomro), Felipe Ariel RodríguezPresident Apatela visited the campus construction works Customs Logistics Integration Program (PILA)on the Panamanian side, and Border Integration Program (PIF), on the Costa Rican side, both financed by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).
It was announced that PILA shows a progress of 22 percent, while PIF completed construction two months ago and seeks to strengthen the competitiveness of both countries through the modernization of infrastructure, equipment and land border systems.
Regarding the internationalization of flights at the David terminal, the Hotel Union points out that it is necessary to make the necessary investments to enable international flights.
According to the figures from Civil Aeronautics Authoritythis airport transported a total of 98,865 passengers from January to June 2023, which represents an increase of 4.6% compared to the same period in 2022.
In this regard, Jiménez stated that the vision is for this airport to be the gateway for direct flights from the USA and other countries in the region. “The influx of international tourists is crucial for the tourism and economic growth of the entire western region,” Jiménez said.
The hotel union supports the Puerto Barú project, 15 kilometers from David, which is considering the construction of a medium draft cargo port and a cruise port. This work by international private investors will have a beneficial effect on tourism in the province, similar to what was registered in Panama City with the new Amador Cruise Port.”
