For years, the Social Security Fund has been an urgent and growing problem that Panama needed to address. The various governments that succeeded each other avoided tackling this crisis, preferring to postpone necessary decisions for fear of political implications. Meanwhile, the institution's deficit continued to rise.
In this regard, the Chamber of Commerce, Industries, and Agriculture of Panama has highlighted the importance of addressing the situation of the Social Security Fund promptly and decisively. According to the Chamber, this institution is fundamental for the country and requires bold and effective measures to ensure its long-term sustainability.
In the words of the Chamber: "The solution to the Social Security Fund problem is crucial for the future of Panama. It is necessary to stop postponing decisions and act with determination to resolve this crisis that affects thousands of Panamanians."
In light of this situation, the need for concrete measures to ensure the viability and proper functioning of the Social Security Fund becomes evident. The challenges are great, but the Chamber of Commerce emphasizes that it is imperative to face them with courage and responsibility, thinking of the well-being of the whole country.
