And that is precisely what we continue to avoid. But between recognizing the flaws and correcting them, there is a distance that we have yet to cross. We know where the problems are. To look with honesty at what we normally avoid. Panama is not a country without information. We detect them, we discuss them, we document them. And then there are the rules of power: the reform of the internal regulations of the National Assembly has been under discussion for years, like a crucifixion without resolution. Why do those who make the laws avoid subjecting themselves to stricter ethical norms? There are also social programs: a data cross-reveals inconsistencies, purges are made, but the system continues to drag along flaws. It is not a lack of diagnosis; it is a lack of decision. It is not a day of noise, but of awareness. How is it possible that taxpayer resources are used to finance those who do not need them? Good Friday invites us to pause. Correcting implies causing discomfort, touching interests, assuming costs.
