VOICED : Panama: candidato oficialista cierra campana

José Domingo Arias, the official candidate for the presidency, concluded his campaign with promises of improved continuity of current projects initiated by President Ricardo Martinelli. Arias emphasized maintaining the people's interests and working for the poor. He leads in most polls and presented his government plan focusing on economic growth and social development, aiming to reduce inequality and poverty. Opponents accuse Arias of being a puppet for Martinelli, seeking immediate reelection. Over two million Panamanians are set to vote on May 4 to elect Martinelli's successor, renew Congress, and choose new mayors.
