Groundbreaking world class 3-day trade show exhibits real estate investment and lifestyle opportunities in Panama

TORONTO - Vladimir Reznik, Executive Director of PanaExpo 2008 is pleased to announce that Royal LePage - Your Community Realty is endorsing the upcoming Panama Festival & Expo 2008 to take place at the Toronto Congress Centre on May 2 - 4, 2008.

Royal LePage - Your Community Realty teams up with Times Realty Group to promote Panama Real Estate at PanaExpo 2008. Mr. Reznik says, this alliance is significant, as Canadians are looking to familiar sources they can trust.

According to HiFX, one of the largest providers of foreign exchange services, nearly 30 percent of all real estate clients in Central America are Canadian.

The Expo serves to educate and inspire visitors to become a part of Panama, coined "bridge of the world, heart of the universe". Earning a reputation as the "Hong Kong" or "Dubai" of the Western Hemisphere, Panama is experiencing an unprecedented big-business boom especially in its capital, Panama City, where some of the world's most prominent players, including Versace, Trump, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Scotiabank and Philippe Starck are making waves.

Vivian Risi, Broker of Record for Royal LePage - Your Community Realty says "Canadians are seeking a rewarding investment experience in Panama. They want to explore and acquaint themselves with the incredible changes and opportunities this rapidly growing country is enjoying. I've researched this market extensively for several years and now have access to some of the most promising projects investors could want. This Expo allows all visitors to see how beautiful Panama is and why investing and spending time in Panama now is such an exciting option."

Panamanian experts from Real Estate, Investment and Legal fields will provide visitors of PanaExpo 2008 (www.panaexpo.com) with helpful and most recent information about investment and retirement in Panama. Former Miss Universe and native Panamanian Justine Pasek, as well as Jose Boyd, the President of Panama Real Estate Association will also be the speakers and guests of honour.

Panama has everything to be named Paradise! International Living called it "The World's No.1 Retirement Haven" for six consecutive years and one of the best places in the world for retirees today." Frommer's listed Panama as the world's number four travel destination in 2007.
