What is my take on Panama’s new President, José Raúl Mulino? Why are so many millionaires fleeing the US? And what happens when a country vastly overestimates its visa offering? In this week’s episode, you’ll hear my thoughts on the above and so much more as we dive into the latest stories affecting expats on the latest edition of Expat News!

TODAY’S EDITION OF EXPAT NEWS:

  • Listen in to hear about Malaysia’s bumbled attempt to launch a “Premium Visa Program” - honestly, I am still chuckling over this.
  • Find out why the number of American millionaires looking to acquire second residencies and passports has surged in the past four years, including President Biden’s shocking capital gains tax proposal.
  • Hear my thoughts on the election of Panama’s new President, Jose Raul Mulino and how it will affect expats.
  • Free passports?! Learn about El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele’s offer of free passports to foreign skilled professionals.
  • Tune in to hear about an important upcoming deadline affecting those applying for Caribbean citizenship by investment.
  • Uncover the reasons why Spain is threatening to end its Golden Visa program—yet another reason expats should generally avoid the country as far as Plan B’s go.
  • You’ll be horrified when you hear about Canadian Prime Minister Justin Castro's —er, Justin Trudeau’s—disturbing new speech bill.
  • Learn about an interesting new visa being proposed in Southeast Asia.
  • Hear about the shocking number of Americans who may qualify for Armenia’s citizenship by descent program.
  • Lastly, you’ll learn more about Hungary’s upcoming Guest Investor Program.
