Colon, Panama in all it's glory

Colon, Panama on a quiet Sunday. During the week the streets are filled with people and traffic. At night it's a dangerous place.

yeah it looks like that right now,but once the building bum is over in the city of panama, the goverment will bring a second bum to colon ,because it offers the same advantages than Panama city. si, hoy colon luce asi,pero en un par de anos cuando los desarrollistas urbanisticos se les acabe el bum en la ciudad ,colon sera la proxima ciudad en desarrollar . una vez se haga el puente sobre el canal,el gobierno desarrollara barriadas de acceso y poco a poco ira renovando la ciudad de colon.

I'm from Colon, and seen this just makes me sad, believe me when I say, Colon use to be beautiful... brings me to tears... I left 30 years ago... being having dreams about a little town and now I know where it is... OMG....sad.

Hahahah yo soy chiricano y tu me vas a decir a mi que Colon, con ese aspecto, es la segunda ciudad mas importante de Panama? Bueno, esta bien, lo es por el puerto y la zona libre pero algo tenemos que hacer para arreglar la imagen y creo que ese empieza con la gente. Mucho robo y mucha demencia alla. Si arreglan eso, se educan y saben cuidar sus vainas les va a ir mejor.

Saludos de un chiricano, meto!

Man, it's been 27 years since I last left Panama. Colon City looks worse now than when I first went "down range" there back in 1978. I do so remember these images. Though I've never been back, still have mucho love for the Panamanians that were in my world.

The streets seem to be in good shape. Man that would be one cool place if they cleaned it all up.

damn laope colon my birth place looks like a war zone after the war. man love to my people. i was wondering because since i have been seen all the marching that has been taking place by panamenians here and in panama, it's like it all has been a distraction while they are showing people on one hand all this progress, the morenos are still left behind, love my people
