Panama Land, Development to be Influenced by Trade Agreement?

According to the Associated Press, Panama has moved to the top of President Obama’s list for a trade agreement….

President Obama is committed to goals announced throughout his campaign of “rewarding strategic allies and confronting economic necessity”. Obama will be making his case before a Senate Finance Committee, and is pushing for a deal by July 1st.

The trade agreement will be viewed as a sign of friendship by many. Obama, who was a critic of NAFTA while campaigning, now sees the importance in a trade agreement with Panama. As a result of the Canal project, there is a growing transportation infrastructure that is seeing a rise in US tourism and trade. A trade agreement is supported by companies like Caterpillar, a company that has increased its presence in Panama and will increase production as a result of the Canal project. A trade agreement would allow U.S. companies to bid on Canal-related projects.

A U.S. trade agreement would be beneficial to the development in Panama. Interested in land in and outside of Panama City? Visit Panama-Land-for-Sale.com to see properties and real estate for sale in Panama.
