Panama -  Assessment of the presidential candidate proposals by Panamanian society is a current priority in this country, with elections about a month away.

Partido Revolucionario Democratico (PRD) presidential candidate Balbina Herrera will exchange on Tuesday with youth about different issues of public interest.

The initiative is part of media work to promote learning about the administration plans of the candidates.

This kind of action is increasingly important, considering the results of the single public debate held between Herrera and opposition member Ricardo Martinelli, of Alianza por el Cambio party, where polls showed the PRD presidential candidate as the winner.

According to analysts, only 32 days before the elections, intensification of the activities by each candidate is expected.

The most recent survey by Ditcher and Neira pollster, in the March 27-29 period, gave Martinelli 51 percent of acceptance.

Herrera kept 35 percent of the voters' support and Guillermo Endara, of Vanguardia Moral de la Patria, won five percent.

The PRD candidate was the favorite in Colon province, with an eight-percent advantage, while the candidate for Alianza por el Cambio party won in Los Santos, Veraguas, Panama, Bocas del Toro, Chiriqui, Herrera and Cocle.
