Panama City Panama Seafood Market without sanitation control



Seafood Market without sanitation control
Ice and water shortages, flies, and odors were some of the irregularities encountered by officials of the metropolitan area health department upon performing a health and sanitation inspection of the municipal seafood market.

Jorge Hassán, Director of Health for the metro area, said "the deplorable condition of the facilities evidences poor management”; a situation that is even more worrisome as the period of Lent begins.

The findings of the Ministry of Health could result in a $500 to $5,000 fine for the administration of the popular market, under the direction of the Mayor's Office of Panama.

According to the market's manager, Víctor Castro, the administrative problems observed by the health officials are strictly a budgetary matter. Without disclosing specific figures or further explanation, Castro assured that the resources necessary to resolved these issues, would be received by the Mayor's Office by March.
