Caribe Shuttle is reporting that an agreement was reached last night between the Panamanian government and the Ngäbe Bugle people ended protests in Panama. The leadership of the Ngäbe Bugle people warned that protests will resume if the agreement is not honored but expressed optimism.
Caribe Shuttle people on the ground tell us that the border is open, road blocks around Changinola and Almirante have been cleared and the roads are in good condition. Caribe Shuttle began operating its normal schedule today. The special temporary boat service between Bocas del Toro and Puerto Viejo is suspended.
