Strange premise and statement.
You do not even know what January 9, 2014 was do you. Ceremonies all day, everything closed, 50th anniversary, and remembrance throughout the country. Entire country and government shutdown. Ignorance here is just too overwhelming to be believed. How can you be that 'disenchufada'?????
I guess that is why they call them "ugly Americans". Perhaps 'ignorant Americans' would be more appropriate. I had four one-on-one contacts yesterday with the company outside of Panama with no problems at all. Maybe you are dialing the wrong numbers, extensions, or using wrong e-mail addresses.
