WDR / Intelecon Regulatory News WDR Home Costa Rica: Government response to U.S. liberalisation proposal 3 December 2003 – According to a report by Business News Americas , foreign trade minister Alberto Trejos said the government has drafted a response to a proposal from the U.S. government that Costa Rica liberalise parts of the telecommunications market as a condition for participating in the Central American free trade agreement. "The important thing is to be selective, limiting (liberalisation to) value added services that would be provided in partnership with (incumbent operator) ICE," Trejos said. He also believes that telecoms liberalisation should be done gradually and transparently. The U.S. government initially demanded full telecom sector liberalisation, including the privatisation of ICE. Subsequently, the U.S. reduced its demands to the liberalisation of the mobile telephony and Internet access sectors, and allowing the provision of dedicated international lines for multinational corporate clients.

Documents menu Blow to Costa Rica government plans BBC News Online, Wednesday, 19 April, 2000, 02:21 GMT 03:21 A court in Costa Rica has thrown out controversial government proposals to partially privatise the country's telecommunications and electricity industry. The plans led to the worst unrest in Costa Rica for decades. In its ruling, the Constitutional Tribunal cited procedural errors made by congress last month when it approved legislation opening the Costa Rican Electricity Institute to outside competition. The ruling cannot be appealed. Correspondents say the decision is a blow to the government, which had argued the reforms were necessary to modernise the country. Trade unions said the plans would lead to job losses and higher rates.

Related Weblinks Costa Rica Attractions San Jos© The cosmopolitan capital of Costa Rica is the transportation hub of the country, so most visitors spend at least a few days in the city. It has a more North American feel to it than many Latin American capitals, with department stores, shopping malls and fast-food chains. However, it also has several excellent museums, some great restaurants, colorful markets and a fine climate. The best of the museums are the Museo Nacional, which has displays of Costa Rican archaeology, colonial furniture, costumes and religious art; the Museo de Oro Precolombino, which houses a dazzling collection of pre-Columbian gold pieces; and the Museo de Jade, with the world's largest collection of American jade sculptures. The most impressive city building is the Teatro Nacional, built in the 1890s. It hosts plays, operas, ballets and performances by the National Symphony Orchestra. The best market is Mercado Central, which bustles rather than buzzes, but has a range of goods from live turkeys to leatherwork, and some of the cheapest meals in town. Most of the cheaper hotels and eateries are west of Calle Central, between Avenidas 1 and 2.

The uninhabited and densely wooded tropical Cocos Island, about 480 km (300 mi) to the south-west in the Pacific Ocean, is under Costa Rican sovereignty.

The Meseta Central, with more than half the nation's population, is the most predominantly Spanish region in both its manner of living and its ancestry. Spanish is spoken with distinctive national accents and usages. In Central America, a Costa Rican is called a Tico, for Costa Ricans replace the diminutive ending -tito with -tico, a practice known elsewhere but uncommon in Central America. People of African ancestry live mostly in the Caribbean lowland provincia of Limón, which contains overall about 7 percent of Costa Rica's population. They are the descendants of workers brought from the West Indies to build railroads and raise bananas, and most of them speak both Spanish and a Jamaican style of English, the majority being descended from people who came from that island. There are also a substantial number of Chinese, many of whom are also the descendants of imported labourers.
