This Week in Costa Rica hits some controversial topics this week starting with a news segment with Rico from qCostaRica where Dan and Rico talk about:
Topics Include: San Jose's Juan Santamaria Airport Expansion, Costa Rica Departure Tax Being Included in Airfare, "Megastores" Invading Costa Rica, the Costa Rica Parking Meter Scam, Traffic Police Cracking Down on Reckless Driving in Costa Rica, Riteve Asking for a 200% Cost Increase & IDs Being Required for Riteve.
This is followed by an interview with Nicki Wheeler, the international volunteer coordinator for the Association of Volunteers for Services in Protected Areas of Costa Rica, ASVO. We hit the issues like the murder of Jairo Mora Sandoval, major problems currently effecting the Costa Rican environment, turtle egg poaching and how ASVO is trying to battle some of these issues.
