Palau
Festival Leaves Park Filled With
Trash
The Parque de la Paz was filled
with happiness and joy over the
weekend with the presence of
Luis Palau and a host of Latin
music starts. Reports say that
several hundred thousand came
out on the two nights - Friday
and Saturday - for the event.
But, who picks up the garbage?
No one, it appears.
Residents of the area around the
Parque de la Paz became
disillusioned yesterday when
thousands of garbage bags,
plastic bottles, paper - all
kinds of trash - were still
strewn all over the part and on
one in sigh to pick it up.
The "Luis Palau San José 2006"
brought together singers and
dancers to fill the stage in
between the gospel words of the
Argentinian evangelist.
Rafael Arias, an official of the
Municipalidad de San José,
confirmed that the organizers
were responsible for the clean
up once the activity ended. But,
now it appears that the
taxpayers will end up footing
the bill if they want to see the
park cleaned.
