No guests this morning, we take a rummage around my music collection and the Internet. Also an update on the activities of World Youth Day for today. Pope Francis arrived in Panama yesterday late afternoon and will remain until Sunday.


The plane bringing  Pope Francisco landed at 4:15 p.m. at the Tocumen airport, in Panama City, from Rome, Italy.

The Eighteenth Criminal Court declared unproven an incident of controversy promoted by the defense of Marta Linares de Martinelli, thus giving the green light to proceed with the investigation of the former first lady, for the alleged payment of bribes by contractors of the State to past government officials.

The Tribunal Electoral (TE) has asked citizens not to trust the results of polls published on social networks. In their Twitter account, they pointed out that “algorithms can affect results and, unless supported by the court, the survey has no guaranteed results.”

Between July and September of 2018, the  Presidency of the Republic spent $ 2.4 million as discretionary items, according to a statement from the State’s Communication Secretariat.

The absence of deputies in the National Assembly on Monday prevented the call to vote on the second debate of bill 591, which criminalizes tax evasion.

The judge of Guarantees of Herrera Eduardo Barbaadmitted Tuesday afternoon, January 22, the request of the closing of the process of investigation against eight producers and lifted the precautionary measures imposed.

In each  World Youth Day a football tournament is held with no other purpose than that of uniting young people around a ball.

The relic of San José Sánchez del Río is in exhibition in the parish of Our Lady of Lourdes, in Carrasquilla, as part of the visit of Pope Francis to Panama.
