Think you have a visa problem? Look at this

12 years ago

Think you have a visa problem? 32 Ecuadorians expelled from the Galapagos Islands. Since I first arrived in Ecuador in 1980 one issue that was in the papers was the issue of the number of Ecuadorians moving to the Galapagos. In 1980 the Galapagos was still a rare destination only for the richest. As it became a cash cow for Ecuador, lots of Ecuadorians have tried to cash in on the tourism boom. No doubt this has placed great stress on the infrastructure and environment. Correa signed into law in 2007, strict guidelines on dealing with the issue of who could reside on the islands. A video report in Spanish indicates that 32 Ecuadorians have been kicked off the islands for not having permission to live there. http://latinamericacurrentevents.com/all-recent-events/
