Emergency Message for U.S. Citizens


Reply To: Price Peterson <price@haciendaesmeralda.com>



 

Date:                                     February 1, 2012

 

To:                                          EMERGENCY MESSAGE FOR U.S. CITIZENS

 

Subject:                               Possible Disruptions and Blockings along Pan-American Highway in San Felix, Chiriqui

 

Dear Wardens:                  Please disseminate this message to U.S. citizens in your area.  Thank you.

 

 

The U.S. Embassy in Panama City alerts U.S. citizens of possible disruptions and blockings along Pan-American Highway near the San Felix area in Chiriqui (Ngobe Bugle region), due to ongoing mining law protests.  Anti-riot police are stationed near the area to prevent the demonstrators from obstructing the road; however, traffic on the highway is still likely to be affected.

 

Other protests on this or other issues may occur at any time and be repeated with little or no warning. The Embassy continues to caution its employees and all U.S. citizens to exercise heightened security

awareness and avoid crowds and any areas where there are demonstrations or where confrontations

could occur.

 

For the latest security information, Americans traveling abroad should regularly monitor the

Department's Internet web site at http://travel.state.gov where the current Travel Warnings and Public

Announcements, including the Worldwide Caution Public Announcement, can be found. Up‐to‐date

information on safety and security can also be obtained by calling 1‐888‐407‐4747 toll free in the U.S., or

for callers outside the U.S. and Canada, a regular toll‐line at 1‐202‐501‐4444. These numbers are

available from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday (except U.S. federal

holidays).

 

For updated information on the security situation in Panama, please contact the American Citizens

Services Unit of the U.S. Embassy at 207‐7030. The Consular Section of the U.S. Embassy is located in

Clayton, Building 783, in the Clayton section of Panama. The Consular Section fax is 207‐7303. The

Embassy web site is http://panama.usembassy.gov/ and e‐mails should be addressed to Panama‐

ACS@state.gov. After hours and emergency phone number: 207‐7000 or 207‐7200.
