ACP Board Appoints New Chief
Former Panama Comptroller General, Dani Ariel Kuzniecky Barsky late last month
officially assumed his new position as chairman of the Panama Canal Authority's
(ACP) Board of Directors at an inaugural ceremony conducted at the presidential
palace.
At the inauguration, Mr Kuzniecky, who concurrently holds the rank of Minister
for Canal Affairs, stated that "one of my commitments will be to preserve
the pride and international prestige that Panama has gained as a result of the
ACP's management of the waterway". Panamanian President Martín Torrijos Espino had previously announced
that Mr Kuzniecky's appointment was significant, since "the Canal expansion
is the most important project for this government and the country". As one of his first duties in his new role, Mr Kuzniecky headed an ACP commission
to present the second quarterly expansion report to the National Assembly of
Panama. He also presided over the ACP Board of Directors meeting, where the proposal
to restructure the Panama Canal's pricing system for the next three years was
approved. During his service to the government, the National Assembly of Panama appointed
Mr Kuzniecky as Comptroller General of Panama, a position he held from January
2005 until April 2007. In this role, he presided over the Central American and Caribbean Superior
Comptroller Entities (OCCEFS), and acted as Executive Secretary of the Latin
American and Caribbean Superior Comptroller Entities (OLACEFS). .
