AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Currency Watch: The U.S. dollar closed the week at a record low in Costa Rica’s Monex market (¢452.96), a sharp shift that’s hit retirees and anyone converting dollars to colones. Public Health: Costa Rica confirmed two monkeypox (Mpox) cases in San José and says transmission risk is low, with patients under monitoring and contact tracing underway. Environment & Courts: An environmental lawyer asked a court to immediately suspend exports of three thresher shark species, arguing new international protections became binding on June 27. Tourism & Travel Trust: Travelers are increasingly skeptical of hotel eco-badges, pushing brands toward more direct proof of sustainability and local benefits. Local Life & Safety: “Red” taxi permits dropped after renewal deadlines passed, cutting the fleet by more than 2,000 units. Sports: T&T’s beach volleyball duo Jerome Morrison and Jahreef Miguel will play for 13th-14th after NORCECA action in Honduras. Human Interest: A Guanacaste farmer, José Flores Flores, turns 119, but his age still needs international validation.
