UN Calls to Panama Resource
Equal Sharing
Unequal distribution of income,
education, and health are the
main problems that prevent
Panama from developing fairly, a
UN report said on Sunday.
A UN Development Program (UNDP)
document revealed the serious
resource-distribution
inequalities in Panama.
"This country will not reach
further welfare for the majority
if we do undertake a different
development, and it happens
because we do not work on the
equity issue," UNDP
representative Isabel St. Malo
de Alvarado said.
According to the official, there
are not poor people in Panama
due to lack of resources, but
due to lack of opportunity.
A recent survey revealed that
the majority of Panamanians
thinks poverty is the main
problem in the country.
