Draft 2027 budget includes B/.10 million for the railway secretariat

23 August 2026 · Source: La Prensa ↗

La Prensa reported that the draft 2027 budget for the Ministry of the Presidency includes B/.10 million, under institutional strengthening and modernisation, for the Panamá–David–Frontera railway and the SNDF.

Background & context

This is a proposed allocation in a draft budget, not construction financing and not the total project budget. The government presented a proposed 2027 national budget of B/.35.1117 billion at the end of July.

The allocation still has to pass through the National Assembly's budget process.
