Public consultations on development projects in Panama district
The Public Consultations on development projects in Panama district were convened by the Ministry of Public Works in 2020. They consisted on making development projects that the Ministry plans to carry out available to the public, as well as a mailbox to which citizens can send their opinions, questions and suggestions on each project. This mechanism was used in bidding projects for works aimed at the rehabilitation of roads, as well as tenders for the rental of equipment necessary to carry out public works.
