Country Facing Deficit of
Bilingual Employees
The La Nación reports that the
country lacks 7.000 English
speaking workers, as
international companies face the
challenge of finding bilingual
workers, as 8 out of 10
interviewees do not get hired
because they lack sufficient
English language skills.
Cameras To Keep
Immigration Employees Honest
The Dirección General de
Migración y Extranjería
(immigration service) as part of
its efforts to fight corruption
within its ranks, has made the
bold move of placing cameras at
strategic points within its
offices located in La Uruca.
More Tourists
Minister of Tourism Carlos
Benavides expects a 4 percent
increase in the arrival of
visitors to Costa Rica in 2007.
Visas For Frequent Visitors
Hundreds of foreigners will be
granted digital visas, valid for
a year. Thus, they will not need
to call on a Costa Rican
consulate every time they have
to come here.
U.S.
Swindlers Arrested

the International Police
(INTERPOL), Joshua J. Grimes,
29, and Michael R. Kearns, 30,
were arrested at Juan Santamaria
International Airport when ready
