I have to agree. Was there twice last year. It is depressing to see all the old colonial architechture falling apart from lack of maintenence. The lack of money to maintain the infrastructue shows in one of the roughest and slowest roads to and from an international airport I have ever been on.
The news photos from the airport are a little scary from the "I was there" point of view.
Hope they solve their problems before there is nothing left to visit.
