Panamanian authorities call for expanding investigations into judges and politicians as part of the fight against corruption. This includes investigating the assets of judges and the families of high-ranking officials, as well as reviewing special laws and pension benefits that cause a budget deficit. There are also reports of a 'price list' for legal services and court rulings. Meanwhile, a meeting is scheduled to discuss raising the minimum wage, which could negatively impact small businesses.
